Always cracks me up when people try and say Alabama could beat the bears or UConn could beat the Pistons. Shows a complete lack of understanding just how elite these guys are.

When I was in HS my town played against a running back named Keith Elias. He went to Princeton on scholarship and had a cup of coffee with the Colts. He ran for 5 TDs and well over 200 yards. The guy was so much better than anyone else out there. It wasn't even close.


My high school basketball coach went to a Bobby Knight coaching clinic and Coach Knight ran Damon Bailey through some shooting drills for about 30 minutes from spots all over the floor. My coach said over those 30 minutes he couldn't even guess how many shots he put up, but not only did not miss a single shot but he doesn't think one of them even touched the rim.
