re: Basketball is more cerebral than football

By a wide margin? Based on what?

Well, I men, it's not exactly based on a scientific study.

But, I look at it like this.

If I took the NCAA Champions basketball team this year and then just grabbed the top NBA guys at each position plus a few subs, put them on a plane and had them arrive at the arena 5 minutes before tip off, I still take the NBA guys for the win. No practice. No plan. Just NBA street ball against a well oiled college machine.

I don't think the same could be said for soccer. I feel very confident that a football comparison would be difficult for the pros. Remember, TOTALLY no practice. Baseball? Maybe similar to Basketball in that respect.

That's just my perception I guess. But, that's where I was coming from.
