There are a lot of superheroes. There are a lot of sports. And nearly every sport has a super using their skill-set: Surfing has the Silver Surfer, hockey has the The Islander, jai alai has Overthrow. Heck, even the Silver Surfer is technically repping a sport, and the Sportsmaster is good at them all. Well, except jarts. Only Flaming Carrot is any good at jarts. Be that as it may, it does raise the question of which sport makes for the best super-powers, leading to today’s intramural query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) would love to read the adventures of The Curler and his cosmic laser-broom, asking: What sport would make for the WORST superhuman sports master abilities?

Super ski jumper would be pretty bad. One, you need a suitable snowy hill to be able to do it and unless its like interstellar range jumping, I don’t see how super pole vaulter, triple jumper or hang glider couldn’t do the same thing but with less restrictions.
Noodling, that kind of fishing where you entice a catfish to swallow your arm so you can catch it.
as close to home as this’ll probably hit for many a reader round these parts, an e-sports superhero would be pretty underwhelming.
