What sports adjective would you want to be called?

A couple days ago, my friend Dylan Kitzan and I had a conversation on what adjective we would want to be described with if we were professional athletes. Dylan chose the word "cold-blooded" since he would want to be the pitcher that got the ball at the end of the game to wrap things up when things were tough. I chose "intangibles" which actually isn't an adjective but hopefully you get the jist of things, because I'd rather have that then being described as an overweight, unathletic chump.

Then (we were bowling at the time of the conversation) while I was getting my bowling ball from the rack I looked up at the television to see an story on Mark Sanchez on ESPN, whom I think is going to be a fantastic NFL quarterback considering how polished he seems coming out of college. So I turned to Dylan and said "change my adjective to 'polished'" and then subsequently bowled a strike.

...and finished that game with a 113 score, but that's neither here nor there.

Now what adjective would you like to be described with if your were a professional athlete?

  1. Sexy is the worst adjective in sports. Sexy and a professional athlete should never be used. Seriously.

    Unless its Danica Patrick.
