Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Gale Sayres, Walter Payton, and The Fridge.
BX Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Dallas Cowboys -Uh, Emmit Smith, I suppose. Carolina Panthers - Stephen Davis, or Julius Peppers. Carolina Tar Heels - Duh.
Guest MikeSC Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Hmm, Buffalo Bills --- I still say Thurman Thomas was a better all-around player than OJ. Atlanta Hawks --- Dominique Wilkins, by a pretty wide margin. Atlanta Braves --- I'll have to say Greg Maddux --- Hank Aaron was a great power hitter, but Maddux was THE MAN for years. Buffalo Sabres --- Is anybody but Dominik Hasek even up for this? S. Carolina football --- George Rogers, our Heisman winner. S. Carolina basketball --- Probably Alex English, but John Roche and Bobby Cremins were excellent players S. Carolina baseball --- Adam Everett was terrific, and Kip Bouknight (who will probably be on the Rockies roster at some point) was phenomenal. -=Mike
The Czech Republic Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Buffalo Sabres --- Is anybody but Dominik Hasek even up for this? LaFontaine EDIT: Wait. This is the "greatest" thread, not the "representative" thread. I get the two confused. Between these two and "Funyn Things Athletes Say" and "Funny Things Athletes Do," I feel inclined to start Best and Worst Uniform threads for everybody to interweave. Because you know San Diego Chargers or Quebec Nordiques will end up on both.
Slingshot Suplex Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Buffalo Sabres --- Is anybody but Dominik Hasek even up for this? LaFontaine Gilbert Perreault?
Y2BigJ Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 I have a slight problem calling Bird the greatest Celtic ever, what about Bill Russell?
Slingshot Suplex Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Gordie Howe is generally recognized as the greatest Detroit Red Wing ever. Terry Sawchuk and Steve Yzerman would probably round out the top three.
Fökai Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 Atlanta Braves: Greg Maddux. Chicago Bulls: Duh... San Francisco 49ers: Joe Montana. UH football: Ashley Lelie or Jason Elam. UH basketball: Anthony Carter.
Guest Choken One Posted May 8, 2004 Report Posted May 8, 2004 I should add UC Bearcats: Oscar Robertson with Kenyon Martin at #2.
Brett Favre Posted May 9, 2004 Report Posted May 9, 2004 New York Knicks: Patrick Ewing/Walt Fraizer/Reed/ tied, i can't decide. New York Yankees: Babe Ruth New York Jets: Joe Namath St. Johns Red Storm: Chris Mullin
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted May 9, 2004 Report Posted May 9, 2004 Yankees All time: Babe Ruth. That's obvious. My lifetime, it's been Don Mattingly & Derek Jeter.
elite Posted May 9, 2004 Report Posted May 9, 2004 Montreal Canadiens: Maurice "Rocket" Richard. The best hockey player ever. Damn straight. Although, I do have a soft spot for Guy Lafleur.
Vern Gagne Posted May 9, 2004 Author Report Posted May 9, 2004 I dont think it's a stretch to call Frank Thomas the greatest White Sox of all time. Luke Appling, Joe Jackson, Ted Lyon, Red Faber deserve consideration.
Guest Coffey Posted May 9, 2004 Report Posted May 9, 2004 [MLB]Chicago Cubs ~ "Mr. Cub" Ernie Banks. I was also a big fan of Mark Grace, Ryne Sandberg & Andre Dawson. That's just for hitting though.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted May 9, 2004 Report Posted May 9, 2004 For the Pittsburgh area: Pirates: When it's all said and done, Bonds could probably be called that for his overall stats, but fuck him, I'm going with Roberto, with Honus Wager a close second. (I'm using "great" to include other things than just stats.) Steelers: A hard call, but I'm going to say Joe Greene, because he was the foundation to the Steelers' success in the '70s. Penguins: Lemieux...
