Bet that data is just boys’ high school track records from 2018. I bet there are thousands and thousands of high school age boys that could beat it who never ran track, instead playing real sports.

Chelsea_hubbell 12 points ago +13 / -1

Very few “real” hs athletes can go sub 50 in the 400. It’s by far the hardest event and takes specific conditioning to perform at that level.

1
Brickapede2 1 point ago +4 / -3

Untrue. The male high school 400m record is around 45 seconds. Getting within five seconds of that for DBs and receivers is pretty routine. Hell, the linebackers on my team were running 52s.

Spez: Guess it depends on what you mean by “very few.”

Chelsea_hubbell 5 points ago +5 / -0

You recognize how big of a difference a 45 to a 50 is, right? 50 to a 48 is a massive difference. A 48 to a 46, again massive difference. Shaving a few tenths off of a 400 time can take an entire season of conditioning to do, far more cardio / weight room conditioning than you specifically get playing a “real” sport.

I was a D1 T&F athlete, workouts as a sprinter are as intense if not more intense than what football is doing. Just in different ways.

2
Brickapede2 2 points ago +3 / -1

I do. That’s why I noted getting within 5 seconds of 45 is doable. Still a long way off from the male high school record, but beats the female record.

Spez: I’m not arguing that male football players, for example, are faster than male track athletes. I simply argued that thousands of high school males (far more than looking just at track record books would suggest) could beat the female record listed in this thread.

Would you care to list 'real' sports? Seems you have an adverse feeling against track.

Brickapede2 57 points ago +78 / -21

It’s an event, not a sport. Much like curling, golf, speed skating, lane swimming, bobsled, powerlifting, etc.

If all you’re doing is racing for the best time in a single lane, jumping for the highest/longest distance, or throwing things for distance, I don’t consider that a sport. Your competitors have no influence on you beyond mental intimidation/motivation. They don’t act upon you to interfere with the outcome.

It’s a competitive event, but not a sport.

You’re free to think otherwise.

At least it's not soccer...

But, frankly, F' all the Sportsball games. MMA is our national sport now. And I'd rather watch womens' tracking and field than watch the kneelers. Or the NBA children who pretend to be victims while taking money from Chinese people who own slaves and run concentration camps and execute you for being caught with marijuana.

They were going to blow Jackie Chan's son's brains out until he went on a publicity tour advocating for people to be executed for marijuana crimes.

Ghostof_PatrickHenry 6 points ago +7 / -1

I think you’re confusing “sport” with “game,” but arguing semantics is futile.

Spez: “Sports” have been around for thousands of years. (Think ancient Olympics)

“Games,” such as those you describe that now dominate American culture, have been around for less than 150 years.

What games do is layer the individual sports (running, jumping, throwing) into a competition that is a more interesting spectator event.

That’s the difference.

6
Farage_massage 6 points ago +7 / -1

It’s odd that you draw that semantic difference when the Olympics is traditionally referred to as “the Olympic Games”...

aconcernedtroll 6 points ago +6 / -0

Hmmm, so some events would be a sport though? If you run an 800, you break into the same lanes. I've used strategy in the past when racing, drafting off teammates, only passing on straight aways, and timing my passes for maximum moral killing off my opponents...

What about things like chess, pro-gaming, poker, etc ?

Spawnlingman 0 points ago +2 / -2

Counterstrike e-game tournaments. I'm a sucker for it even though there is zero physical traits other than muscle memory. Its a mechanic skill for sure but its basically like playing 5d chess on a bomb map. Its considered an e-sport because they know its not in the category of a physical sport.

-1
Brickapede2 -1 points ago +5 / -6

Not athletic enough to be a sport.

My definition does have some gray areas (like auto racing, which does require athleticism and physical endurance and does involve interfering with other racers, but relies very heavily on mechanical equipment), but no one else need use it.

Spez: I think a quick test for my definition is to ask whether the event in question could be held remotely. Certainly chess, poker, pro-gaming can all be done online. Track events could also be done remotely, all we care about is the fastest time under controlled conditions. No reason folks from all over the world couldn’t set track times in a climate controlled facility meeting certain standards in their home towns all over the world.

So, not sports.

2
CookMySock 2 points ago +3 / -1

By that definition auto racing wouldn't be a sport, either. Fastest time wins. Its not like you can intentionally interfere with other racers.

I certainly won't argue that gaming, chess, or card games are sports, as I don't believe they are. Your definition of what a sport is, is rather odd IMO. I for one consider track and cross country to be sports.

2
Farage_massage 2 points ago +3 / -1

Of course your interaction with the other drivers matters... it’s about when you try to take on the driver in front, so you wait out their fuel stop and then try make the most of the crowded field, so you take a riskier inside line from their slip stream and break late into turn 4 etc.

1
CookMySock 1 point ago +1 / -0

That isn't interacting with another driver, though. You aren't running a driver off the road, or bumping their car, or anything else. They aren't doing the same. There isn't any interaction going on, merely ways to get through a lap faster and faster.

Trying to say this is anything like interaction is basketball, baseball, or football is absolutely ridiculous. In those sports, one team directly interacts with the other. You can't hit the baseball without the opposing team pitching it to you, you can't reasonably expect to score a touchdown without getting tackled and you can't score a basket without the opposition trying to steal the ball.

You can't fuck with other drivers.

1
thedalmatianturtle 1 point ago +1 / -0

But... track and field will take place regardless of the weather, as long as there's no lighting or thunder.

A person sprinting on a track doesn't get to determine when their best time comes. It could come in pouring down rain, snow, or on clear sunny day. It all depends on the person who is running.

Which is why those who choose track and field choose it, because it all depends on them. No one else. It is just as much mental as it is physical.

People generally don't like having to depend on someone else for their success. Which is another way of saying that if your time sucks, it's because you suck.

If that is your criteria then you need to remove curling from you list of non-sports. You can’t do curling remotely.

-1
Brickapede2 -1 points ago +1 / -2

Meh. It’s no more a sport than is bocci ball.

Spez: You could do remote curling. The curlers interfere with a board, not one another. Just replicate the board at each remote location after each turn, like chess.

1
tombombadil 1 point ago +1 / -0

Then your definition needs to change again. From what I can tell your definition of sport is “stuff that I feel like calling a sport.” There is no principle behind it. It’s just feels.

Women's sports are uninteresting to watch because no one wants to watch the B team compete. Throw some men in there completely dunking all over women and that's some quality TV.

Some women's sports are fine. I'm thinking Rugby, Curling, Golf, Tennis (to some degree) kind of things. Rugby simply because these women usually aren't the dainty but fit women, they're usually pretty strength orientated (Men's rugby is still generally better to watch though). The team competitions are generally pretty lack luster

They already have tested and non-tested powerlifting federations, so you can watch the top bench-pressers juiced up to their heart's content. I'm pretty sure all the pro strongman competitors are juiced beyond all reason too.

WWE has cucked out too. They used to not have social issues, or propaganda junk. But they have tried to do stuff to appeal to Fox Sports, ESPN, etc. Used to never have WWE personalities tell who they supported. Granted, the folks at top, McMahon's are Trump supporters. But now you have alot of talent who are outspoken liberals- The Rock, Mick Foley wants to have Trump removed from HOF, Big E, Kevin Owens, Sammy Zahn all outspoken for Biden/Anti-Trump. It is going down soon. Really, WWE fans are same type of people as MAGA folks, and WWE personalities forgot that.

MapleBaconWaffles 2 points ago +2 / -0

I saw someone had put together a table of probably over a hundred different events comparing the women's world record, and the world records for highschool boys of various ages. I don't remember if they had powerlifting or just weightlifting, but that was one where the boys beating the women's records were actually older than average.

For most sports the boy's records beat the women's record at about 14-15 years old. Some it was by 13. I don't recall if there were any as low as 12, although they did show the 12-year-olds' records in the table.
