are superheroes retarded?
>>
>>150222483
Superman isn't capable of committing the minimum number of felonies to remain in the NFL.
>>
>>150222483
A lot of times they end up getting found out.
>>
>>150222483
How do you past the drug test, nimrod?
>>
>>150222576
most metahumans aren't on any substance that can be detected without specifically looking for it
>>
>>150222483
A) sportsmen get seen by doctors a LOT. and if you didn't suddenly develop brain damage and retire in your 30s and move on to a life of crime, it would be extremely suspicious. secret-identity-ruiningly suspicious
B) sports are fucking BORING and you have to devote your entire life to it. you live there, you live on the bus, and in hotels. you travel all year round. you have no life.. that's why they all do drugs and hookers
C) it's technically cheating
D) I forget, but I had a D. well it was a B at the time, then I thought of more.
1) I'm glad you recognize that having money is the most powerful way to make good things happen, and I wish more people understood this
>>
>>150222483
That’s not fair
>>
>>150222483
>>do more good in the world than if you went around punching villains
Care to explain yourself anon?
>>
>>150222483
If you want money as a superhuman you can just take it.
>>
What would do more good
>Stopping literal world destroying threats
OR
>Throwing money at failing Charities that are just as likely to be embezzled as actually impact the life of a single intended recipient.
>>
>>150222720
I think anon meant physical

>A)
Holy retard. There are several legendary, non-criminal athletes that compete well past the age of 30, and none of them are suspicious in any way.
>B)
Spoken like a true armchair redditor. Professional athletes almost unanimously love the sport they play. Sure, a handful might hate what they do but stay for the money, but you’ll be hard pressed to find them. The most notable ones are the guys who are obsessed with their sport to the point of borderline mental illness.
>C)
No rules saying you can’t compete if you’re born stronger and faster than everyone.

>>150223588
Clark can play for 3 years, send a couple million dollars to a charity, and get two (2) wells dug in African villages.
Or
He can fly there and dig a dozen or more wells in a day.
>>
>>150223588
>that are just as likely to be embezzled
Sweetie, I don't disagree with you that human beings are scum that shouldn't be allowed to breed, since they are crooks, thieves and petty as all shit PRESENT COMPANY OBVIOUSLY EXCLUDED, hint hint.

But let's just let everyone die, amirite? While we all watch Superman win the World Cup/Superbowl/Winter Olympics/Summer Olympics once more.
>>
>>150223917
Also no rules saying a dog can't play basketball or football or whatever.

>>150222483
>do more good in the world than if you went around punching villains
How is being good at a sport doing good in the world?
>>
>>150222483
That's what Beast did before they made him a geek.
>>
>>150222483
jesus how fucking big is he that other guy's tiny
>>
>>150224352
I'm not saying let everyone die, but majority of charities fucking suck and do nothing ESPECIALLY the kind that celebrities just throw money at. When given the difference between being an impossible hero who can do anything and legitimately saves the world, becoming an athlete so you can throw pennies at poor people is retarded.

>>150225065
6'3 plus perspective.

>>150223452
Life's not fair. Take it up with the Big Man In The Sky.
>>
>>150222483
>WHY NO MAKE MONEY!!!

You're the retard who keeps spamming Calvin and Hobbes threads, aren't you?
>>
>>150222720
Becoming a pro athlete is an easy way to get exposed as an alien. There are physicals, x-rays, blood tests, and etc that teams perform on the players to ensure that they are health and that they are worth the investment.
>>
>>150222483
All the money in the world'll help just as much as all of the superpowers Superman's had in every age put together in a capeshit context.

After, there's rich superheroes. Batman, infamously, is rich as fuck, and yet, Gotham remains a shithole despite him spending tons of money on social programs and charities as well as punching out guys like the Joker and Bane.

>>150222720
>your blood tests came back negative for blood
>how are you alive?

You talking shit about Air Bud?

Yamcha had the right idea

If you just want money, I think there are better ways to do it.
>>
>>150223917
sports probably would be boring if you were secretly a superhuman and all the time you're expected to spend practicing with the rest of the team is a meaningless farce for you though.

Forget about trans, should superhumans be allowed in sports? Do metahumans sport leagues exist?

Why not just rob the top 5% richest people and distribute their wealth among the 50% poorest? What are they going to do about it? What's the harm? It's like if communism actually worked and wasn't a fairy tale for robbing retards.
>>
>>150228332
I hate to disappoint you, sister, but metahumans aren't real.
At most, you get some people who are more genetically gifted, like Michael Phelps but even he still needed to train and work at it.
>>
>>150222483
Too much time commitment in most cases.

I don't remember what I saw this in, but the solution was a sports league just for supers

Yamcha is human

>>play a sport professionally
High School football, especially for a place with very few inhabitants (a/k/a SMALLville) is about as far from professional sports as Lil League is to AAA farm teams, son
>>
>>150229690
He's super strong and fast, able to fly, and shoots energy beams. I'm pretty sure he counts as a superhuman/superhero in addition to being a human.
>>
>>150231069
But he trained to do all that.
>>
>>150222720
He can't be tested with needles because he's bulletproof
>>
>>150225253
>>150229489
we all see the little doll man down in front right
>>
>>150231118
Yeah fair enough. I guess your issue is with the term "superhuman" when all the stuff he does are things humans are capable of doing with enough training in Dragon Ball. I think calling him a superhero at least makes sense nonetheless.
>>
>>150223978
Dak Prescott just signed a $240 million contract for 4 years. That's $3.5 million per game played. $2.9 million per game if he plays in the Super bowl every year.

Digging a well costs like $10k. Clark could dig 300 wells per game played.

>>150231123
>>150226510
>>150226757
There are a ton of heroes, antiheroes, and villains with powers that wouldn't show up on any test.
>>
>>150222483
if he wanted to superman could actually solve every problem without ever needing to punch anyone
the whole concept is utterly retarded
