Long talk our specialty!
If you search around the threads at all, you will see that this question has been asked and answered several times -- including one that is running concurrent to yours.
My feeling is -- if Aikido were NOT effective for anyone, no-one would study it. It may not be effective for you, it may not fit your definition of "practical in a real fight." That is up to you to discover -- either by trying it, or perhaps just deciding never to try it.
