It depends on how you define bigger. Nick is clearly taller; but she does outweigh him by forty-five pounds. They are both great athletes though.
I pick things up and put them down, I pick things up and put them down, I pick things up and put them down. Wow what an athlete!
Really? How exactly do you define an athlete? I throw a ball? I catch a ball? I stand in right field and occasionally swing a stick at a ball? I make left turns really fast and operate a clutch? I use my face to deflect hockey pucks? I flip around on a skateboard? I swim from one end of the pool to the other? I suppose the worst is: I hit a tiny ball with a tiny stick in an attempt to find a tiny hole somewhere in this field--but only if the field is properly manicured. The best I can think of is: I ride a bicycle 2,000 miles in three weeks. (fortunately, they're all on dope, so we can easily avoid taking that seriously, too!) Tell me how those are more "athletic" than picking things up and putting them down.
Ullamaliztli--the aztec game where the winners won the opportunity to be human sacrifices, that's a game that takes an athlete. Gladiators were probably athletes, at least the professional ones.
Very well said! No one would argue about whether her brother is an athlete or not, yet his job, at its most elemental, is running a few steps, then pushing another big guy, before he pushes, or gets by me.
Makes a comment about someone else being ignorant... Doesn't know the difference between "you're" and "your". Classic.
