This is a question Sporting Woe

In which we ask a bunch of pasty-faced shut-ins about their exploits on the sports field. How bad was it for you?

Thanks to scarpe for the suggestion.

Hyperbole often is. If you would prefer facts and figures, you could analyse academic achievement across top-tier sportsmen, and perform similar analysis of the sporting achievements gained by top-tier scientists, comparing both with a control group of average Joes. I would certainly be interested in reading your Powerpoint presentation on the subject.

Oxbridge let in professional rowers to do a Masters in "Land Economy" and then just use them for the boat race. Duh.
