Professional cyclists, hockey players, football players, basketball players, boxers -- many of the best are between 25 and 35. Which athletes do you see being judged "too old" by 25? only gymnasts and figure skaters. Look at Didier Cuche -- 37 and still beating the younger guys on the ski hills.

I thought I was old when I turned 20. 
If I use old or young on this forum I mean relatively old or young. Professional athletes are definitely not old in the geriatric sense.
