Just curious, how many of you played either college or pro ball? (any sport)

I was an NCAA wrestler four years and baseball for two years.

I opted for soccer after one year of baseball, wish I didn't do that.

Just a guess here, you had problems with the stocky wrestlers with a low center of gravity.

I wrestled 168 lbs, but real low center of gravity, used to love to go up against guys like 5 ' 11". (easy to leg drop)
