Just because you don't recognize them doesn't mean no one else would be able to. I couldn't name an athlete I hadn't read about in the last five minutes if I tried. That doesn't mean they don't have name recognition.

Interesting that you only chose one of the three names as something you didn't recognize.

Lmao, I'm talking to a person who couldn't name a single one of Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Michael Phelps, Babe Ruth, Messi, Usain Bolt, Muhammid Ali, etc... let's do some less top athletes and just drop some athlete names I can do off the top of my head: Brett Farve, Manning, Mike Tyson, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Williams sisters,

I'll probably try to think of more later.

then, I don't think you can be considered a trustworthy input on this topic. That says so much more about you than anything else.

It's such a monumentally clueless statement about the world around you. I would be embarrassed to out myself as that clueless on physical fitness. This is all coming from a guy who never watched sports, except maybe in high school a decade+ ago.

No shit I told you I don't recognize the name I said I didn't recognize. I've followed video games and worked in video game development for 25+ years. I was establishing how far you were fishing for 3 recognizable names, even amongst would be experts on the subject.

Yea, I don't trust your input. It feels better to assume you wrote that comment in bad faith rather than out of cluelessness.
