Compared to say, Winning a heavyweight fight in the 12th round after being pounded on by a huge brother (who if he were to hit a normal person would probably break them in half) for the first 11 rounds?
EXTREMELY LOW.
Compared to say, standing and blocking the plate with a 220lb fast as lightning Dominican man lowering his shoulder to barrel into you in the bottom of the 9th inning in a world series with 25 million people watching.
EXTREMELY LOW.
Compared to say, "going over the top" on 4th and inches from the 1 foot line in the 4th quarter of a close NFL game and getting hit mid-air by someone of Ronnie Lott or Steve Atwater's ilk.
EXTREMELY LOW.
Compared to say, driving the lane in a tie NBA basketball game as the clock ticks down to zero and simultaneously getting nailed by a 7' tall African's elbow as you slam dunk into a basket over 10 feet tall.
EXTREMELY LOW.
Compared to crossing the blue line and getting ANNIHILATED by the likes of Scott Stevens as you hang in there to make that game winning assist?
EXTREMELY LOW.
Need i continue? (We won't even get into MMA)
You want to talk Heroic? Emmit Smith playing an entire NFL playoff game and carrying his team to victory in the Meadowlands on frozen concrete despite having a separated shoulder. THAT is heroic. And i don't even like Emmit Smith.
Golf is the biggest panzy ass sport of all time. It makes soccer look tough. And this is coming from a Scotsman.
