They tend to be athletically talented and in shape (no smoking or drinking could have something to do with that), but will show no mercy. They ran up the score on us in soccer and celebrated their 10th, 11th, etc goal as if each was the world cup winning tally. Extremely heightened aggressive tendencies in basketball were present as well. Our theory was that all their suppressed emotions and urges found an outlet in sport, to everyone else's misfortune.
Not to mention that all, or at least all the ones I was in growing up, have a full scale basketball court inside. It's not just rag tag half court BS either, we are talk hardwood, glass backboards, the whole 9 yards.
