Patrice O'Neal - Which Sport Has The Most Luck?

[@pantera29palms]

The Anthony and Patrice show.

[@CrePunzal]

Patrice is a legend. Miss his commentary and comedic way of his critique on subjects. 😂 Movies. Pop. Sports. Politics. The Rambo rant wirh anthony opie and bobby is classic. Also norton and patrice were a og duo of rib breaking laughs.

[@spikespiegel2246]

Patrice calling a hockey puck a "dangerous piece of iron" is awesome. They actually freeze hockey pucks before the game to reduce bouncing.

Lol Driving 200 mph is a sport "Going 200 is a crime" "Skydiving is a sport" Love this convo.

I love how organically funny Patrice was. That part about people hitting someone's head to each other with a bat... I could tell that was the first time he ever thought about the concept, but still made it hilarious.

[@Thumbsdwn]

baseball is the correct answer, if you think about hitting the ball. Baseball players have the least control over the ball when hitting, when compared to all other sports. Baseball is the only sport in which the balls ultimate location is determined by both the pitcher and the hitter equally. When shooting/throwing the ball in other sports, the skill falls onto the individual player with the ball. I think the MLB knows this and this is why they play so many games per season

[@urgandma]

Combat sports do have a small bit of luck, but what you often consider luck is pure strategy. Fighters gotta pick up on patterns, and know what to do accordingly. Rarely do you get that one fat Mexican who beats Joshua.

[@getschwifty9531]

Never stop throwing punches and always keep your hands up. I love baseball but imagine seeing your favorite team has been hitting the ball hard all day but right towards the fielder. Then the opposite team has been getting fooled and making weak contact yet they've got 5 runs because every hit was just barely out of reach of fielders. That's the kind of crap that happens in baseball a lot.

Baseball has the most luck. “3 out of 10 makes u a hall of famer”isn’t true. Making contact 9 out of 10 makes u a hall of famer. Those 6 lost at bats are because you hit the ball but the defense made the play. Not striking out measures a true hall of famer

[@mypud4068]

James Stewart I get what your saying but what career 300 hitter isn’t getting into the hall of fame because of strikeouts?

the greatest goalies are usually between 6ft tall and 6' 6. Being 6'6 is almost too tall for a goalie already. so I don't think KG would have been that great. Soccer is not a tall man's game like basketball

[@kftc1980]

Irregularities in the ice and boards/glass can have an impact. “Bad bounces.” The insane tempo increases the impact of some of these things sometimes. Other times the goalie gets lucky when the shooter inexplicably misses the open net, or just happens to hit a piece of the goalie’s equipment when there were many open spots. The arbitrary nature of which penalties do and don’t get called also has an impact.

So, Tiger was the first guy to use techniques and skill? Luck in golf comes down to wind, weather, obstacles, and animals. It's not hard to hit a golf ball in the general direction you want. Still definitely a fair bit of luck, but it's also less of a sport so that's fine.

[@bamabat8435]

Basketball has the most luck. A poorly shot ball can bounce into the net and still counts for points. Also there is no determining which way a basketball will go on a rebound or who will come down with a jump ball. Really any game that is based around hitting a non-mobile target (basketball, hockey, bowling, archery, darts, pool, golf, soccer, field goal kicking in football) are going to have the element of luck. If you can make a poor shot and accidentally score points for it, that's luck.

[@HookedonChronics]

Bama Bat 84 basketball literally has the least luck, everything averages out with that many shots taken. Thats why its so predictable, the best team almost always wins. Hockey is way more luck based. Then baseball.
