Soccer is a lot more jogging than basketball. You can't even deny that. In basketball, every player has to get set on both ends of the floor. After rebounds, everyone sprints to try to beat their man. Soccer has moments like this, but not constantly all game. More than half the time for a defender or attacker is spent jogging around watching the ball on the other end of the field.

Hahaha holy shit, he just claimed that soccer was less jogging than basketball

In American sports, especially for the QB position, skill is more important than stamina or physical ability. All of the men in the NFL are the most skilled football players in the world. Certain potions like the QB are more skilled based so it's not unusual for the players to maintain longer careers.

Meanwhile in Yurop, their only sport is based around aimlessly jogging around a pitch for 90 minutes while pretending to be injured. Zero skill is required which is why are the players are tiny manlets that lack any semblance of pride which is why they are okay pretending to fall down all the time.

Lol ok. That's your retarded opinion. Doesn't change the fact the best athletes in the world play basketball. Not soccer. No 5'7 manlet is a top level athlete. yes soccer takes skill with your feet, but those little shits aren't playing anything BUT soccer. basketball players could play every fucking sport there is. they just decide to play basketball. Take matt barnes for one. average ass basketball player, but was all american at wide out in high school. could have went to literally any college inthe US. probably would have made the nfl with his size too. 6'8 wide out is going to stomp ass.

True however QBs are usually non-competitive after 35 and if you would consider Elway and Manning, both win a SB >35 thanks to their defense and they were largely irrelevant.

Well Romário at 39 playing for a midtable team still outscored 21yr old Tevez playing for the eventual champions.

>>65484548
Both of you are right. GK and QB don't require a ton of physical ability compared to say midfielders or forwards and cornerbacks/wide receivers.

This thread in itself is stupid because manning didn't even do anything. It was the Denver defense that won them that game. It also goes for the Americans posting 40 year old soccer players that played like 5 games the year they won and using that as an argument as well.

Basketball players only run 2.5-3.5km per game, 4km tops. That's why you can play 5 consecutive games in a week.

So he wasn't wrong about you sleeping all day kek

He was carried by his defense, if you watched the game you would have known that. 39 year old Peyton didn't make the Broncs win, their offense was actually shit. Their defense on the other hand was phenomenal and was able to completely shut down Carolina.

I really hate to repeat myself but...

>American banter

At least >>65485419 acknowledges the fact that there are plenty of Spaniards living there and some do shit jobs. The lazy Spain is as easy as fat American.

Same with Dick Petty. NASCAR drivers peak in their 30s and few are competitive after 45. Petty was all-but worthless after 1987.

There's really no comparisson in the amount of skills required. Soccer is a lot more skilled. Just look at women soccer players. They look borderline retarded playing it because it is so hard. They don't look that pathetic playing other easier sports though.

Cambiasso wasn't called either. It's clear as water that Maradona had beef with Zanetti or had arrangements with they players' managers.

did you forget that a 40 year old won the bpl??

Imagine if a 40 year old Keepers started a match and won while the opposing team had zero shots on goal

That's the best metaphor I can think of

Van Der Sar, mate

Petty stopped being good when NASCAR changed the rules in 1971 so that there would be 30 official races per season. Before that, any race on a NASCAR-sanctioned track counted even if it was amateur dirt tracks. Then in his later career, they started more stringently making it a requirement that all cars be equal.

>>65483387
not even trolling but can you please explain the literal obsession with american sports fans and the idea that a good athlete should be 600 lbs of bulging muscle that look like the Hulk?

Literally only in american football is that advantageous, it literally detracts from your ability in nearly every other sport.

Because football is a team sport and that 39 year old had an outstanding defense to make up for his offensive inadequacies.

>I, too, think Yank sports are rubbish

Objectively there's nothing that makes them better or worse other than one instinctively preferring the safe and familiar.

and like others have said, Manning didnt do much more than the minimum to win

All he does is throw the ball. His role requires no fitness and very little strength.
