Club of the century.

Wrestling Achmed's sport. After graduating Achmed was still running 5 miles each day and in great shape. Went back a year later to help coach over Christmas break. Wrestled one of the fish Achmed use to beat up on. Achmed get so tired he puked guts out (which says a lot for Achmed). Put Wrestling at #1 "Silence, I kill you!" - Achmed the Dead Terrorist

Import is a wrestler....exhibit 1. Also think bball deserves a higher ranking.....certainly higher than American football.

Achmed make joke) Achmed could not get his boys out either....I second your [censored] soccer. Darn you Heise and the camel you rode in on :-) Oh ya and why I'm thinking of it: It's "i" before "e" unless after "c"......spell your name right coach!

Also think bball deserves a higher ranking.....certainly higher than American football. i think is been proved that in a professional american football game, they play for 30 minutes and the other 2 hours are commercials and breaks. a few of my best friends were state champs in high school. the only reason i didnt wrestle it was bc is at the same time with soccer, it would have been nice to wrestle in high school. i was talking mostly about team sports but you are right, wresling is the second more challenging sport. 1. boxing 2. wresling i think mma is not a sport, that is just straight fighting and i dont enjoy that, too brutal for my taste. another one i have tried and is incredibily demanding is climbing.... i have seen some videos on youtube and climbing is def next to boxing and wrestling, prob more dangerous and the physical attributes you need to do professional climbing are simply out of this world.
