College women's soccer team loses to male basketball team IN SOCCER


said this before on here a few times, caught hell for it, still believe it, most sizable HS jv boys basketball team could beat any nationally ranked womens D-1 BB team, certainly every decent sized college has a mens intramural bb team that would run the table from wire to wire against the same, softball? what a frickin' joke

For people saying billiards or pool, I think a female could be the best in the world if there was a larger pool of women to select from. Pool has always been a mans game and I never see it changing. I think very few girls grow up interested in pool.

The best players in the world are men and they would completely destroy the best women over a period of time.

That said, pool could be played on a level playing field considering what it takes to play pool

I was speaking on the grounds that we are playing on a 9 foot table.

At the pro level, your height barely ever matters.

I can see that, being that if they were at they were at that skill level they likely wouldn't put themselves in a position where their lack of reach/wingspan would come into play

Equestrian is the only correct answer.

It's also one of if not the only that doesn't separate the sexes.

Penis Riding.

I'm sure there are some decent gay males but the best of the women would put them to shame.

Yep.

It would never come into play unless they made a bad mistake or a safety was played on them.

I say over a long period of time because any woman pro can run out a string of games in 9 ball.

shite, I can run out a few games in a race to 9 against a pro in pool.

It's impossible for women as a group to outperform men because of evolution. Look at the male skeleton/body vs female. Male is built to work/physical labor.

Look at our ancestors. When whenever meat was needed, men as a group has to to hunt mammoths, sabertooth, big games. Women were back in the cave taking care of the kids. You simulate this day in and day our for hundreds of thousands of years and you get the answer.

An interesting article from 4 years ago. It seems championship female athletes now are as fast as championship male athletes. But they still fall at least 10% slower than males across all sports, currently.

It seems biology prevents them from making up that 10%. I know... duh, right? But read the article. It will show why.

It could be hard for an MLB baseball player to hit a softball pitch from top level softball pitcher. The MLB players would still win with speed and defense tho.

If it requires, speed, strength, stamina, the answer is no.

Race to 9(last about 1.5hrs), playing 9-ball, anything can happen in pool.

But the best female pool players in the world, wouldnt rank as a top 20 pool player(both sex included).

The top hitters in softball hit .400. And they are women. MLB players would bat around .750 after a week of practice

Darts could be a possibility if considered a sport, but I still dont think the best females can hang.
