There's a huge difference between beating a player one on one and being better at 1 particular skill out of many.
Example. I know people who have a better free throw record than shaq. Doesn't mean they would have beaten him 1 on 1. Not even close.
Ive been on the ice with NHL players and a guy like Chris Neil will always dominate and score. He shows us how much better he really is than us average Joe's. Doesn't mean there aren't guys on the ice who are faster than Chris Neil for example..
These guys get to play and practice hockey for hours every day, learning from and playing against the best. Of course their skills are gonna be much greater than the rest of us who sit at a desk 40 hours a week and maybe play a pick up game once or twice a week. The combination of elite genetics and training would be just about impossible for any normal person to match up with when it comes to sport specific drills and movements.
The speed and strength stuff though; these guys are definitely beatable, since it is less sport specific, more genetic dependant, and only a % is transferable and relevant to their sport so of all their training time they're not going to be dedicating as much time to it. I'm sure there are lots of people on this site that could outlift Bobby in the gym. I'm sure there are, a smaller portion, but still people who could beat him in a race. And if you're somehow reading this Bobby, sign me up for that challenge
That's what I love about the NFL combine, you get to see how everyone stacks up in speed, power, explosiveness...just athletic measures that don't directly apply to football as much as just watching a receiver run routes or a lineman blocking. I've tried to cover a friend who played receiver in University football in the states and it wasn't pretty, all the subtle hip movements and everything just really throw you off if you don't practice and get ready for it all the time.
