Is Tom Brady the single best sportsman ever, and why is he the greatest of all time, surpassing the likes of babe ruth, wayne gretzy, kobe bryant, and pele?
>>
'no'

Because he plays a sport that matters

Hey Tom. How ya' holding up?

Absolutely not.
Sir Donald Bradman is; with a batting average of 99.94, there's nobody better, at anything, ever.
Rodney Mullen comes CLOSE - inventing a vast number of skateboarding tricks, perfecting the flatland ollie, and winning 34 out of 35 freestyle competitions over a decade, pretty handy.
Tom Brady's not even in the hunt.

This graph shows the Test averages of every cricketer who ever played for his country. Ever.

Notice the arrow.

That's Bradman.

Comparing athletes across sports is kind of dumb.

Brady is GOAT qb, Bradman is probably GOAT when considering the relative success they had in their own sport.

Fun fact: When Italy's Fascist Council ditched Mussolini in 1943, a member of the UK's House of Commons is said to have remarked of Hitler: "We've got [Bill] Ponsford out cheaply, but Bradman is still batting."

No thx

>>67592962
Yes
>>
>>67593724
So it is. Seems me graph is a couple years old, and Voges has a fairly ludicrous Test average himself!
Well above his averages in the shorter forms of the game; his ODI average or his T20 average don't crack 50, but he's over 95 from 15 tests. Blimey.

First class, not T20, I'm misreading the stat sheet like a nong.

>>67592962
You can compare GOATs all day, but as soon as you mention Gretzky you've gone too far
>>
>>67593488
That's like claiming some obscure ping-pong player is the greatest sportsman.
It's nice that your little favorite is good but in a great big world those accomplishments don't matter.
I wouldn't expect an Austrailian to have the proper perspective, though, so don't feel bad.

Will these meme please stop? LeBron and Steph Curry would both tear his shit up.

It isn't even a debate man, the 90's were a much tougher league than today

No. His slugging is still on top and only juicers have broken his records. Aaron did it on longevity

>>67594433
Same shit burh, Donald Bradman owns Cheatcuck Brady by any measure becuse one of them is a freak of nature in a more INTERNATIONAL level and the other one a cheater who was lucky to be coached by the devil himself.
>>
>>67594468
>tougher = better
Steph could just rain threes all day long while Jordan is getting away with fouls and LeBron would still out-muscle him. Nostalgia fags are the worst, i swear.
>>
>>67594469
>playing in an era without black people

stats are totally legit
>>
>>67594509
Jordan would just drive past LeBron and Curry again and again, if we're talking prime Jordan. If we are talking Old Man Jordan I think he'd kill them both with his fadeaway

He's going to pretend like it doesn't matter because he can't understand the basic concept that a bigger talent pool stiffens competition, which happens everytime I bring this up. >inb4 calling me a nigger or spic or some other nonexplanation, I'm white
>>
>>67594520
And dominated when no one else was even close

>>67594528
He's still the GOAT
Jordan doesn't have all the stats either but is still GOAT
>>
>>67594555
Babe Ruth is so far removed from GOAT status that his name barely even comes up in baseball discussion anymore

His career stats outside of homers are nothing special anymore
>>
>>67594528
Hank Aaron has more RBIs and total bases than anyone in history. Case closed

>but muh dingers!!

He has seven less than Bonds even without steroids
>>
>>67594586
>>67594528
Oh whoops, I didn't really follow the conversation well now did I? Yeah, Aaron is better than Babe Ruth, but Babe Ruth did dominate his shit era better than anyone in sports
>>
>>67594615
good catch
>>
>>67594574
No. He is still regarded as the best.

First people say Tony Romo is elite, then these niggas is saying Jordan ain't better than Lebron


Yall niggas cray

No, give it to Mays or Hank. I'd even say Bonds FFS, steroids or not
>>
>>67594649
Not the guy you responded to, but that's not really true. Babe Ruth objectively has some of the greatest offensive seasons in baseball history
>>

In his safe nigger-free league

Literally all the other potential GOATs are black

Lmao no
>>

Or even mike tyson for that matter. Mayweather is bigger and better than brady will ever be and he doesnt even cheat.
>>
brady is the goat of goats
>>
>>67603911
Ali >Mayweather.


Ali is the greatest sportsman of the last 100 and he has values we should learn from. Except for Islam. But his work, dedication, determination, and courage will never be surpassed.

I'm a pats fan BTW. Tom Brady is my nigga but Ali is THE sportsman.
>>
>>67603911
Also, Mayweather has had his name linked to PEDs and Tyson spent 3 years in prison for rape. YDKSAB.
>>
>>67592962
There's still an argument regarding whether or not Brady is the best QB of all time.

Bryant usually isn't considered the best basketball player of all time.

Pele being the best of all time is debatable. Same with babe Ruth.

Gretzky is the undisputed best of all time though. I believe if you took away all the goals he scored he would still have the most points ever from assists. No one will ever surpass that.
>>
>>67594456
He's not boxing GOAT. He's sportsman GOAT. Pre WW2 GOAT is Harry Greg POST WW2 GOAT is Roberto Duran.
>>
Pelé is the GOAT of soccer, and that's the only sport that matters.
>>
>>67608959
Messi is better
>>
>>67609354

HUA

Wake me up when he wins a World Cup or score more goals than him.

>why is he the greatest of all time, surpassing the likes of babe ruth, wayne gretzy, kobe bryant, and pele?
He cheats.
