How well could you pose as a pro athlete?
A friend and I recently had a discussion regarding sports that you personally, or the average person could do a good or bad job as a professional athlete for a period of time. What I mean is if you were to play pro tennis, or football, or hockey or whatever, what sports do you think you could fool the other team/your team/fans for the longest or shortest periods of time. I can't think of too many sports where it wouldn't be obvious, if anyone can think of a sport where they fake being a professional for a whole game, I'd be interested to know what it is.
We came to an agreement that darts would be the sport where we would first be found out, but couldn't think of many(any) where we could last a long time without being discovered. |

I could be a competent 12th man in the NBA. I wouldn't get any PT, and when I did get in the game, it would be garbage time anyway, so I could probably even score some points.

You mean as if you suddenly found yourself on a team? I think you could get away with it for a while in soccer if you were in good enough shape. Just run around and follow the ball but don't really try to kick it.
