Honestly I stopped paying attention to the lists during the games when I saw Reggie Bush on the list.
He is NOT one of the best 25 players to ever play.

Wait, Tommy Frazier didn't make the list?????????????

I missed everything between Jim Brown, Vince, and Barry. I thought they put him in there somewhere.

And I'm sure Grange was a great guy and all, but I'm tired of seeing this guy at the top of the list and he played before leather helmets.


Reggie Bust

Ricky Williams>Reggie Bush
Cedric Benson>Reggie Bush







AutoFail.
 
wait i didnt even realize that there was no ricky williams that makes it even worse
 
I also didn't notice Ricky wasn't on the list
smh.gif


The dude didn't make the most of his talent but when he was in college...

Was this list voted on by fans?
 
It's no secret ESPN creates bogus lists (like this one) on purpose just to stir people up. Sometimes they do it subtly sometimes they make it blatantlyobvious.

but where is Tommy Frazier?

i hate the people at ESPN that write this stuff... the people at ESPN with the most influence are probably old white men, who d-ride all those players from back in the day. i don't respect most of those BS achievements, all those white people didn't even have to compete against blacks because they weren't allowed to play together.



Hence the reason for Jim Brown being higher than 18. He was a third string back who wasn't on scholarship who was only allowed to play when they gotinjured.

We know who the best lacrosse player of all time is

Those dang white people. You tell em how you really feel.
 
List is garbage.

Reggie Bust but no Ricky?

Elway, but no Peyton?

Vince Young over **** Butkus and Archie Griffin?

Barry over Herschel? I was fortunate enough to see Barry play at Okie State, and dude was a absolute monster, but he only did it for one year on in a weakconference. Herschel dominated the SEC for 3 years and won a National Championship. Barry was the better running back, but Herschel's college career wasfar superior.
 
Elway, but no Peyton?
Eh, im not so sure Peyton Manning should be on the list.

Anyway, as we know these lists sometimes have as much to do with pro performance as it does college, even though they claim it is only for college. Elway was abeast at Stanford, but would he be listed as #15 all time if he wasn't very successful with Denver?

Barry over Herschel? I was fortunate enough to see Barry play at Okie State, and dude was a absolute monster, but he only did it for one year on in a weak conference. Herschel dominated the SEC for 3 years and won a National Championship. Barry was the better running back, but Herschel's college career was far superior.

Agreed.

I don't have a problem with the old timers that were mentioned, these lists always are hard to compile and these old legends very well could have been thegreats of all time.
