Gonna drink tonight.

I think it's kinda tough to compare frontcourt & backcourt players. D. Bing was a G.

I get it. But I thought this was about the best players in general rather than by position

Yeah the voters aren’t going to drop anyone already on the old Top 50 list.

Okay that I wasn't aware of. Best player between the two? I'm gonna go with Bing. But I'll admit I'm biased because there's just something about Howard I don't like. I know what it is! All his kids with different women. He should have been neutered years ago.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

That what I figured. They were basically going to find the best players from the last 25 years and add them. Then maybe add a player or two that missed the 50th

Voting is a little different.

They put Shaq in based of what they thought he would end up becoming.

Rumors are he’s into lady boys now lol

I can name all the NBA champs from '56 on without looking it up. NFL got all the S.B. champ memorized. MLB- terrible with that one. I follow it the least.

I follow NFL the least so yeah still working on it. But you only have to go back 9 more years to complete it and 5 of those are Minneapolis Lakers (which is maybe why you don't bother LOL)

 

[Robotech]

Have you memorized all the NBA titles in order? I did because I'm a nerd like that. Did baseball too. NBA not that hard, doesn't go back that far and 2/3 of the titles are Celtics and Lakers

I can remember every champion for NFL, MLB, and NBA going back to when I first started following sports in 1987. I can go a little bit before 1987, too, but it gets a little hazy.

I memorized both all the MLB and NBA ones as a mantra to repeat when I'm running or other repetitive exercise. Something to work on in my head...both are helped by the same teams winning a lot of the old ones (Lakers/Celtics or Yankees)

That seems the fairest way to do it. It's not like the original 50 somehow got worse or have a chance to add anything to their legacies.

It's just a fun mental exercise to keep our minds sharp into old age. LOL. Okay, who won the 1990 World Series?

Reds. One of the W.S. series winners I do know because they're in Ohio. But don't ask me who they beat.

The other funny thing is that I track down the approximate dates of events in my life by referencing it to a sporting event that happened around the same time. For example, I will always remember that my daughter was born on Father's Day in 2014 because I remember watching the Heat-Spurs NBA Finals at the hospital and I know it was the Heat-Spurs Finals where LeBron's team lost.

Reds

Honestly I can answer these kinds of questions instantly. Gimme one from the 20s or 30s or 10s or 40s, doesn't matter LOL

It still burns me that the only WS the A's won in those years was against the Giants.

I always know when OJ was in the white Bronco because they were showing it live on the side during the Rockets/Knicks finals LOL

Yep. As were a great team but only managed one WS win. And they needed a literal earthquake to do it.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Klay cried all night about not being named on the list.

Hope he will be ok

Whiney baby boy
