i am confident that i had more talent when i was playing high school basketball than Shaq ever had, my problem is i quit growing at 6'3".

Hitting a baseball would get my vote.

If you can do it successfully 30% of the time, people will be talking about putting you in the hall of fame.

For my money it's golf. But that could be because I can hit a baseball or a tennis ball, yet can barely make contact with a golf ball.

I think QB is probably the correct answer. At any given time there are only 15-20 humans on earth who can even play it competently in the NFL. The drop off is like if the 30th best hitter in baseball hit .200.

And only like 7-8 are actually “good” at it.

did you really think I meant just "hitting a baseball given 1000 tries?"

Come on, man.

Hockey Goalies and Baseball Pitchers.

Solo sports included? I'd say Tennis. Technically, intellectually and physically demanding. Think of how impressive Roger Federer was in his prime.

If teams only, QB in the NFL. Highly exclusive role with huge impact on winrate.

Context man. Context is key, man.

This is almost entirely due to selection bias and not talent prerequisite. The skills required to play an elite NFL QB are not the same ones required for CFB let alone HSFB. In fact, you'd be lucky to ever get a chance playing QB at all since the lower levels of football are filled with ******* dad coaches locking their talentless spawn in at QB.

And even if you get past that, often the coaches are just too ****ing dumb. Remember, Brady was a backup at every level of football: JV, varsity, college, pro. He split time with Drew Henson (lolol) for two years at Michigan. Tough to argue it requires the most talent when no one can even identify that talent before these mfers take live reps in an NFL game. Also recall that he was drafted by the Montreal Expos who thought he could be an all-star level catcher. So it's only by multiple stroke-of-luck inflection points that he ever becomes an NFL starter.

Then what exactly do you consider a talent?

A person's height is one of the few things that perfectly fits the definition of talent. It's a natural ability that can't be improved upon with coaching or practice.

"You can't teach height!"

Is the Dodgers manager eligible for this?

Asking for a friend.

Height isn't an ability.

95% of women disagree with you.

is having clown sized feet a talent?
