re: LSU Gymnastics are National Champions

Pretty off base here . Not the most cardio of athletes but in every other regard they are: strength, skill, flexibility, and mental toughness.

I can swim a few laps. I can not do a damn backflip on a log.

I know right. And what other sport comes in this handy during Spring Break?




Also congrat's to LSU on the natty!

Congrats

okay. First, that is crazy subjective. I would say some of the swimming events are "unmatched anywhere else in sports." Also, the specific example you gave, is someone who used 4 pieces of technology to assist them (the runway, the springboard, the horse and padded landing). I'm not saying gymnast aren’t athletes, but they are not even close to the "best pure athletes"

"Best pure athletes"? Can't speak to that specifically but a good friend dated one in college. Long story, short, first time they had sex, he finished, she wrapped both muscular thighs around him & told him " you aren't going anywhere till I'm finished". And all he could do was let her finish. Ended up marrying her.
