I've really gotten tired of the connotation of the word "athlete" over the years. It's become synonymous w/speed & leaping ability only. There are guys that have athletic ability that are not particularly fast & they can't jump out of the gym.

I agree, a guy like thrash is the anti-Loyd; willing to do whatever it takes. James Thrash is/was a football player. Loyd just happens to play football cause he can get paid.
