not true about the athlets though.. people playing in higher levels are fit as fuck and even our local 3rd division team in norway works out 7 days a week and have contracted pros to built their fitness.. soccer is a serious business and even lower league teams buy players free from work to work out more..
ps.. cut the ads and make the nba players run for 90 minutes.. how many of them could do that?

Actually, basketball players are the best all around athletes in any sport. Its the combination of speed, agility, strentgh and stamina.
Picture a 6'6" 240 lb guy that is lightening quick, runs faster than 99.9% of the population, has a 40+ inch verticle and can shoot a ball in a basket from 20 feet away and make it 50+% of the time with people guarding him.
