It's one thing to see them work their craft on the television screen but in person it's really eye popping. I'd watched AJ Green on TV for years, then when I came to watch them play the Ravens one year, he caught a short pass, broke a tackle and took it down the sideline to the house. I remember thinking, "Damn, I knew he was fast, but he just accelerated for 70 yards straight.".
Same when I started going to LA Lakers games. Sitting close enough to the floor and being able to see them in comparison to us mortals was a shock I never appreciated in front of TV. Size! Agility and watching them in huddle watch beautiful women walking behind the bench!
