Rod Cares

Yes, yes he does...

I consider most Jack of all trade players Over-rated... problem with them is, that you don't always know how to use them, and then when you decide to use them a certain way they are not as good as others are in that role...

Eli Manning (at least by the media).

I wouldn't say Bradshaw, but Namath is definitely up there. I may have to change my Lynn Swann to Joe Namath!

Namath's career numbers are middling at best. He's famous for one game. God Bless him he made a fortune off of it, and he's pretty well beloved.

I know this will go over well with this crowd, but I always thought Scottie Pippen wasn't near one of the 50 greatest players in NBA history like he gets credit for being. I thought he was a solid player that Jordan made great. He's always the first name that pops into my head when this discussion comes up. Emmitt Smith is the 2nd, but most people have him down on the list of All time RBs to about where he should be, so I've been off that train for a little.

Shit I didn't notice that I got railed by spellchecker.

You might notice what I said about Pippen in the other thread, I agree he was a good player and a good defender but he is very overrated IMO.

I was just reading that. I just know that most people on here seem to love him and I don't think he would have near the clout if he didn't play next to MJ.
