[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What? No. Baseball is on no way the “toughest” sport as far as mental stress plus endurance. I would say tennis is. You are out on the court- just you and opponent. You have to own every error you make and readjust, sometimes your opponent cheats and you have no choice but to let it go and carry on, matches can last 2+ hrs of you giving your all, not giving up, constantly strategizing. It is gruelling.[/quote] You summed it up - "[b]You are out on the court- just you and opponent.[/b]". So if you mess up only you and maybe your family is upset. It is a different type of mental toughness that can withstand 11-14 other players and their families being upset at you for messing up and making an error or striking out at a critical point in the game. There is just so much focused attention on one person. Maybe a goalie has that type of attention or in soccer during a penalty kick. [/quote]
