Snipes was a baseball player in Major League, boxer in Undisputed, basketball in White Men Can't Jump and football player in Wildcats.

Anyone think of an actor that beats that or at least equals it?

Not counting Sandler.

A) middle school basketball not good enough

B) golfers aren't athletes.

There are people using soccer coaches and bowlers as athletes and the arm wrestling is what you take issue with?

Have you seen Over The Top? That's not just a sport, it's a MAN's sport
