like when somebody poasts a hypo polling xo poasters if they could perform a (usually fairly mundane) feat of athleticism at the professional level. without fail a dozen poasters will say something like “wtf no i would be killed even attempting it!” cracks me up every time.

There’s no need to exaggerate, or create a strawman poaster who thinks an NFL D lineman is a god.

But no, a typical poster could not routinely break out of his tackle anymore than the lineman could repeatedly score well on a fair iq test, no matter the motivation.

There are natural limits. If you could suffice as an NFL running back, high odds you would be doing that

lol

If you’ve ever played sports you know well the funnel. Those that emerge from youth > HS > college > pro sports as excellent aren’t merely better motivated. They’d beat you, badly

“If the nations best D lineman were just motivated enough, he could ace a mental test.”

lol at this sophistry. this might be a fair comparison if the hypos were for things like “could xo’s best lawyer win the deacon jones award?” instead they’re targeted to the *average* xo poaster about athletic achievements that typically aren’t notable enough to earn a spot on a roster. just the fact that someone is posing the hypos should be proof that they’re open questions.

"But no, a typical poster could not routinely break out of his tackle..."

It's not a strawman, as shown by the heavy lifting "routinely" does in this clause. A hypo gets posted and the thread is swarmed by unathletic nerds insisting that the physical task is an impossibility, that even if given 1000 tries, the tackle cannot be broken. Then even more pile on and insist that the task is genetically impossible, that even with years rigorous training, the tackle could never be broken.

If these poasters would just concede reasonable positions...that yes, the average poaster is not going to consistently break tackles, but can probably do so 25% of the time and eke out an average of 2 yards per carry (not good enough to make a roster, but respectable for a layman), these threads would not reach three-figure poast counts. Years ago there was a thread where many, many xoxoers were insistent that it would be impossible for a poaster to hit an open three in an NBA game...that the shot would be magically blocked from 10 feet away.

mfcr. these poasters’ total disconnect from common sense is what makes this genre so funny. it’s not like the hypos are “break the mlb single season home run record” or “score a triple double in ten straight nba games.” honestly i would be surprised if more than one or two active xo poasters could do either of those. but “bat .225 over an mlb season” or “score 10 points in an nba game”? what kind of total loser wouldn’t bet on themselves for those?

Kendall Hinton is a wr who was forced into playing qb for Denver during a covid game. his stats:

rushed twice for 7 yards and completed just one of nine passes for 13 yards with one sack in Denver’s 31-3 loss.

while in high school Kendall was an all state qb with scholarship offers from power five schools. and yet even he struggled to complete an nfl pass.

now please tell me again how some pumo who never even played high school sports is doing anything in the nfl besides getting zherself hurt.

Terrible example. the QB position is all about mental processing, where xoers (high IQ) would obviously excel.

maybe we'd struggle as edge rushers or punt returners but that example is where we'd shine

It’s really fucking weird. I always use bartolo colon as my baseline example for hitting hypos (since he’s a morbidly super-obese slob who swings with his eyes closed, and often twists his body full-circle causing his batting helmet to pop upwards off his fat head, or popping his belt and allowing his enormous gut to giggle freely in a comedic spectacle delighting fans in a manner not seen since the banning of Dwarves in MLB), and without fail you’ll have xoers coming in and insisting that, no, despite what your eyes tell you, bartolo is an Elite Hitter whose raw athleticism you cannot hope to match.
