Physical acts of genius [sports gods]

[WashYourHands]

Tell you what m8, we’ll strap a wheelie bin to the side of this old jazzed up Sinclair C5 and jockey it to death, if it all goes wrong we live eternally in bin heaven

 

[IdleRich]

add Michael Vick dog walking

Stupid.

 

[IdleRich]

Shouda fucking booted him in the bollocks at the end when he did that cocky shuffle.

 

[IdleRich]

Did he mean it?

I love this though, the way that there is absolutely no danger at all, ball is deep in the Dutch half De Boer seems to just hit it and hope... and then it's in the back of the net. From nothing. Commentator seemed to think it was pretty special.

 

[IdleRich]

in honor of wash's renewed interest

So that counts as a catch then? In cricket if you caught the ball like that but landed over the six it would be six... right @WashYourHands?

 

[IdleRich]

See this is what I don't understand, he got the ball back which was good I suppose but then any fucker could have scored from there couldn't they? So why is it good? And why is it famous enough to have a name?

 

[IdleRich]

Reactions these guys have

 

[IdleRich]

Or the endurance required for this sort of nonsense...

 

[Mellsman]

Or the endurance required for this sort of nonsense...

Brilliant. And so accommodating.

yeah this is rubbish.

 

[luka]

big deal he jumped quite high who cares

 

[luka]

Jumps quite high - not an act of physical genius.

You have to add something. A little extra. Olive or a twist.

Jumps quite high while reciting the alphabet backwards? - now you're starting to get somewhere

 

[IdleRich]

But to me the point is that he's got the ball amount ten metres from the basket and half the defence is committed, he's expected to score and.... he does! To me an act of genius is scorning out of nothing, not showing off as you score an easy one.

 

[luka]

He doesn't even jump that high really. It's rubbish. 2 out of 10.

He jumps over the head of a man who is 7ft tall

 

[luka]

He wasn't standing up straight.

 

[IdleRich]

But he could have scored without doing that though right? Just to be clear, would it be wrong to say; we are not celebrating how he made a goal out of nothing, but how he showed off while he was scoring a simple point?
