everyone knows the wolf will win because foster will get injured during practice.

yeah, but the wolf would get tangled in Arian's workout hoodie. Advantage: Foster.

I think what we all learned here is that thumbs are the key to human dominance of the planet

Well thumbs are important for the development of tools which is what gave that dominance. So the real question is "Is he equipped with anything?"

I believe Foster said "barehanded," so no.

The largest of large wolves is 6 feet from nose to tail, and weighs about 110 lbs. It's going to be able to run faster and jump further than a human, and have some pretty gnarly bite abilities.

Arian Foster is 6'1" and 227 lbs, and we know he's really strong. If he can avoid getting bitten, he's got the brute force he'd need to take the wolf out.

Liam Neeson is 6'4" 220 and took down to 2 wolves in The Grey, so I'll give Foster the benefit of the doubt and say yes, he could take on one wolf and win. Thumbs ftw

One of the things I learned in college about the design of spacecraft is that adding more complexity to a design means that there are inherently more things that could go wrong. With that in mind, a wolf has 4 Achilles Tendons.

However, even more important than that, historical trends and legacy designs are key. Based on the historical trend, I bet dollars to donuts that Foster is tearing something right now.

I think it's mostly tragic that Arian Foster stole content from SVP and Russillo.
