You're ruining the circle jerk. They can't beat off to that.

haha, seriously? there is only one base for your comparison--the fact that jim brown retired young (29). he played nine full seasons, 118 games (excluding playoffs) and never missed a game. he led the league in carries six times.

no doubt, gale sayers was talented. but let me put it this way--where do you draw the line? to go to extremes, matt cassel once had two 400 yard passing games in a row. it's never been done before. if he'd have retired after that, does that make him a hall-of-famer?

gale sayers' career numbers are no better than priest holmes or terrell davis, both of which were amazing and among the best in the nfl before they retired due to injury concerns. there's a matter of consistency here: if a guy is a hall-of-famer in 1970, he's a hall-of-famer in 2012 (ignoring changes in style of play--1000 yards was more impressive in a 14 game season than now, league rules change to make offense easier, etc.). vis a vis, if gale sayers is a hall-of-famer, so are terrell davis and priest holmes. since they aren't, by proxy, gale sayers is a hall-of-famer in name only.

hell, I'll tell you what--if gale sayers had retired with 12,000 rushing yards and never missed a game in his four full seasons, THEN I'd be able to ignore the longevity issue.

You can ask Bearcat if you want. We discussed the rather large possibility of Lehigh beating Duke on the day of the draw here. I also repeatedly called the MU/Norfolk game "a walkover" and a "virtual bye" due to how awful Norfolk St. had been this season.

Both were indicative of the crapshoot nature of the tournament, but there's little question which upset was more surprising.

Yeah, I know the history.... sounds better when revised to state that we invented basketball.

KU also "created" Kentucky basketball and North Carolina basketball. :-)
