Bryant Gumbel's Olympic spirit.

Quote:How about either the decathlon or heptathlon?

I would venture that very few/none of these athletes have the hand-eye co-ordination of professional athletes in other sports. Since I count this as being among the most important of one of the most important indicators of pure "natural athletic ability", I heistate to agree. On the other hand, as has been posted (and you pretty much seem to agree) it's pretty tough to, for instance, compare a marathon runner to a basketball player or wrestler.
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
William Shakespeare - Richard II
