Olympians Best Atletes?

[Bullaholic]

Are Olympic athletes the best athletes in the world?

This is funny. Everyone knows that high school football players are the greatest athletes. All those who dont play high school football are non athletes. If you dont believe me, ask Pancho.

I think it is just in their sport. Some things dont seem to require alot of athleticism or are kind of odd. Look at the cross-country skiing/rifle range thing. They cross country ski for a few miles and then shoot targets. I would still think an NFL player to be a better athlete but the ski shooting thing is tough though

Thats exactly what I was thinking, am I better athlete than a curler? Probably but can I do what they do, no.

Depends what sport and how you define athlete.
