Do You think LeBron James Would Make A Good Football Player?

[lleeder]

Could he be a dominant reciever? I think so. What do you sport types think?

[Snoogans]

I think so. In fact I think most of the superstar athletes woulda made it pro in whatever sport they chose. Even tiny Allen iverson was one of the best HS QB's in Virginia history.

I think Floyd Mayweather, Roy Jones, Randy Moss, they all coulda played basketball

[Gvac]

No.

Basketball players are wimps.

"He touched me! FOUL!"

[Snoogans]

No.

"He touched me! FOUL!"

Gvac I appreciate you tryin to be funny, but you make it obvious you have NO IDEA what you are talkin about in this one. First of all bron is a BEAST. 6'8 245 or something. NO DB would ever stop that.

And there is alot more contact in basketball now. Plus Deion Sanders played NFL and he never hit anything

[TheMojoPin]

You're trying too hard.

You have to understand...I grew up playing (and later, coaching) hockey during the fall and winter. I can't understand how people can play and/or watch basketball.

I can't imagine being allowed to shoot into an empty net every time someone checked me.

It's literally nonsensical to me.

[razorboy]

He was a highly recruited receiver in high school. I'd imagine he could play tight end or something.

[Gvac]

And someone's size has NOTHING to do with their toughness.

[MacVittie]

I have to believe that everyone in the NBA would be above average at any sport they played.

Good, becase your comparison is complete nonsense.

[lleeder]

He would need less skills than he has now. Run and catch. Run and catch. He does that already only with dribbling and shooting mixed in. It would be easy as fuck for him.

Same with why a DB gets called for pass interference every time he breathes on a receiver. Stop it, you are completely wrong.

i hate it when people who don't like something try to oversimplify the argument.

[DolaMight]

bron might even excel at hockey

Jordan was a baseball player... In the minors.

Not so above average there.

you know who was a good base stealer?

i dont know about dominant but he'd be at least good

you have no idea then what it takes to be a wr.
and physically he may have the skills but once you put the pads on things ahange once you put pads on and start hitting another person.
and to answer the question no i dont to big and slow to play wr maybe te

Big? Maybe. Slow? No. He has run a 4.4 40 on numerous occasions.

[Marc with a c]

what? where did you get that? i can't imagine a guy his size running a 4.4

when and show proof because otherwise im not buying it

yeh at age 30 something


if he started younger he may have had more success

They play the fouls up for the shots? Id like to play Frisbee with Lebron, I've got a beat throwing arm...for frisbee.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

ask Jimmy the Greek

Lebron has a WR frame, but as Gvac staed BBall players are wimps

[epo]

No.

If you qualify average as the average American male, Jordan was way about average.

[Knowledged_one]

To be fair jordan was also dealing with his secret suspension for gambling weighing on his mind

And distracted by all those porn stars he was banging.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Was this the payoff of the 1.18.09 ads? With someone at a press conference? Thought it was gonna be Nike, not State Farm.

[TripleSkeet]

One hit across the middle from a linebacker and he'd retire.

yea but had he never stopped playin baseball, he probably woulda been awesome at it. We arent sayin Lebron right now as a WR. But if he had chose football over basketball i think he would be really good. And Jordan woulda been pretty good too. its hard to still be good when you havent hit a baseball in 15 years

[Snoogans]

what? where did you get that? i can't imagine a guy his size running a 4.4

umm, brandon jacobs is 6'4 260 and ran a 4.44. DO ANY OF YOU PEOPLE WATCH SPORTS. Im really starting to believe some of you post in here just talkin out your ass. Fuck I think Allen iverson woulda been a pretty decent football player, Bron woulda been a 1st round pick. Trust me.

[Snoogans]

FUCK YOU

[Snoogans]

Btw I have a trivia question for those of you who think LeBron is too slow to play WR.

Name me the current NFL starting WR who ran a 4.78 40 at the combine, considered by many as VERY slow?

Answer me that

[epo]

Yes. The middle linebacker would retire.

[Snoogans]

Are you guys really so insane to think no one in the NBA takes a pounding? Watch a Cavs game one day, and watch just how much Bron gets hammered and knocked to the floor. you guys think basketball is some sissy sport. Maybe cause you never watch it

well i actually played in college and have coached and can say at his size he would not have played wr most likely te, but no one knows how he would respond when hit. What he looks like without pads and how you do when wearing them are two different things, just because you think it is so doesnt make it so

LeBron was first team all-state in Ohio as a sophomore. I'm sure if that was "his sport" he'd be great there too.

HE WAS ONE OF THE TOP RANKED NATIONAL WR's COMING OUT OF HS. HE KNOWS HOW TO FUCKIN PLAY. You act like he has never been in pads before. He woulda had a full ride to ANY college in the country to play WR.


You are seriously gonna try to tell me this man would not be able to get a pass over a 5/10 185 pound DB:

show me proof he ran a 4.4 you drug addict.

[Snoogans]

at the combine, 4.49 I believe was the time they had clocked on him in the paper when we drafted him

it might not have been combine, it might have been at a pro day. Im not sure if he was invited to combine

[Snoogans]

SI's 2005 draft preview had Jacobs at 4.51 Assume thats right. Still better then the 4.78 LARRY FITZ ran. I have ZERO doubt in my mind that Bron would be an AMAZING wide out

i was talking about lebron, but thank you for trying to prove to me jacobs ran a 4.4 by saying that you believe he ran it somewhere on someday.

[Marc with a c]

oh a 4.51. what an idiot. have you ever heard of sports?

[Snoogans]

I never said LeBron ran a 4.4 I responded with the Jacobs thing to someone who said a man that big cant be that fast.

And I posted you what I found. I know I remember seeing a 4.49 on Jacobs but a 4.51 is basically the same

a 4.5 is very close to a 4.4. and apparently 6'8" 250 is close to 6'4" 260 as well.

[Snoogans]

a 4.5 is very close to a 4.4. and apparently 6'8" 250 is close to 6'4" 260 as well.

i meant 4.49 is close to 4.51

regardless the point is made, you cant assume someone is slow just cause they are bigger.

Getting back to the point, LeBron would own DBs. PERIOD

nobody is assuming anybody is slow, i just don't think somebody lebrons size could run a 4.4.

[Snoogans]

Usain bolt is incredibly tall.

Also, watch lebron on the court. He usually outruns everyone, even the smaller guys.

[Snoogans]

I spent about 10 minutes searching google for where Bron ran a 40. From everything I have found, he is listed between 4.4 and 4.6 but none of them were any sources I have heard of.

I knew that answer.

[ohioscouser]

Lebron was an all state receiver in the state of Ohio as a JUNIOR in High School and every college including Ohio State wanted him, but of course he quit football his senior year to make sure he didnt get hurt and ruin a chance of being a number one pick, if he went to play for the brownies right now, he'd be our number 1 receiver guaranteed.

[Marc with a c]

I knew that answer.

you win a candy cane.

[romanwarhelmet]

yes a good reciever
like a mushin muhammed or a keyshawn johnson

[underdog]

you win a candy cane.

Sweet!
