Michael Jordan being world famous really shouldn't be taken into consideration for GOAT status. He played right before the Internet took off and most people had to get their media consumption from only a few sources. I don't think we will ever see another athlete who plays a sport mostly only popular in America as world famous as Jordan.


That's why comparing athletes across sports is just kind of dumb though. Even comparing players of the same sport across different generations is iffy. There's really no measurement to go by. Level of fame seems like the only equalizer to really compare by to me.

I mean why would Brady be the greatest? Cause he won more championships? By that measurement then Bill Russell is the Goat

Who? That's a baseball player, right?

I mean it really isn't a very good comparison. Two totally different games.
I get that and I agree, however there's this huge wave of people trying to write off Brady's accomplishments within the realm of the NFL. It's sad really, you have people bending over backwards like trump supporters trying to make excuses trying to deny reality.

Let me know when Jordan gets found guilty of cheating or when Brady defeats aliens in football.

Weird how that cold only affected the balls Brady threw for one season and not any other team in history.

Because Rodgers has always gone for the big contract. Thats great for his bank account but since there is a salary cap it leaves less money to sign talented players at other positions. Brady on the other hand took less money then he could have got on purpose, that way there was money to sign better guys to the team. Winning was more important to Brady then the money. I mean he was still going to be a millionaire either way, but he would rather have a few Super Bowl rings instead of a few extra million bucks.
It also doesn't hurt that his wife made significantly more money than he ever could have playing football. Plus we all know Kraft was giving Brady and other key players kick backs so they could take less money.

Weird how everyone ignores that the Colts balls were also deflated. Gotta keep with the anti-Brady narrative though right?

not for me. you don't play both sides of the ball. defense can win you a chip (vs seahawks) or by someone else's play (vinatieri). goat of football for sure but not of all sports for me.

These people are literally using the same logic of trump supporter election deniers, no matter how many articles and information comes out, they'll just repeat the same misinformation and handwave away ignore reason because it fits their narrative.

Isn't the true for pretty much everyone? These are team sports lol. How dare a shooting guard rely on a center for rebounding

Yes? I'm not the one in here arguing that MJ or Brady is some mystical being above the mere mortals of the NFL or NBA.

Jordan completely redefined the sport and basically would have changed the entire meta permanently in gaming terms.

Brady, nah.

Gretzky? Hell yeah.

Until Brady starts scoring his own I'd say no in comparison to Jordan, but then again Brady cant be compared to an athlete from a different sport.
