2. Mark Messier 1887
3. Gordie Howe 1850

NBA, Boston Celtics: 8 Straight NBA Championships

1. Boston Celtics (8 Straight)
2. Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Lakers, Minneapolis Lakers (3 Straight)
3. Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, Minneapolis Lakers (2 Straight)

NFL, Buffalo Bills: 4 Straight Superbowl appearances without winning (the Broncos and Vikings have gone 2 straight without winning)

MLB, Highest Scoring Baseball Game: Chicago 26, Philadelphia 23 (August 25, 1922)

MLB, Joe DiMaggio 56
 
Rickey Henderson's 1406 steals seems pretty safe. He's 468 ahead of second all time. 468 career steals would be 42nd all time. .Juan Pierre'sthe closest active player under age 40 and he's still 1003 away. 138 in a season seems pretty safe also.

Grant Hill came close in 95-96: 20.2 PPG 9.8 RPG 6.9 ASP

Larry Bird came closer than that in many seasons.

So we can discount all of Jordan's, Magic's, etc.'s achievements because they had hall of famers around them.

What i was coming in to say. Rickey was just insane. Fav ballplayer ever and Top 3 Left Fielder of All-Time behind Bonds and Ted Williams. I don'tthink anyone's ever touching all his quotables either.
 
Wilts 61-62 season. there is no way anyone is averaging 50.4 points and 25.7 rebounds for an entire season.

Wait, wait, wait... I thought the original point made by dmbrhs was simply that Larry had came closea number of times.

This is why it's so hard for debates to go anywhere online; people just change topics and add extra stuff to the debate instead of staying on point.

Person A: "LeBron might average a triple double.
Person B: "Grant Hill almost did, too."
Person C: "Larry Bird almost did, too."
Person B: "Yeah, but Larry had people to pass to."

That has nothing to do with nothing.

They're not going to put inthe record books that one guy's record is better than the other guy's because the first guy had better teammates.
laugh.gif
The original debate there was whether or not people could average a trip-dub,not whether or not people could do it with average, below-average, or above-average teammates.

I can see LeBron doing that during his career.....

07-08: PPG APG RPG
30.0 7.2 7.9

Hes almost there. Don't see why that would be out of his grasp...

You have to believe if Grant had better teammates to pass the ball too, he would average an assist or 2 more thus pushing him a lot closer to tripledouble.

I know a lot of you don't care but I can't see anyone else winning 7 Tours de France - I didn't think it would happen in the modern era but itdefinitely won't happen again - especially 7 in a row.

I was thinking that also

Or average 1541 yards over the next 5 seasons (the amount he said he will play). I don't think LT will break Emmitt's record, although it's notcompletely impossible that he will. Anyway, this thread is about records that cannot ever be broken, and you seriously think that Emmitt's rushing yardtotal is untouchable. Two CURRENT players will come close to it, and it's not unthinkable that one of them will beat it, which he probably won't, butthere is no doubt that there will be running backs in the next couple of decades who will have a good chance of beating it. If Adrian Peterson avoids seriousinjury, he will have a shot at it. Emmitt's record is not completely out of reach.

Jerry Rice's receiving yard total? Now that's damn near impossible.
 
Barry Sanders

He set college football season records with 2,628 yards rushing, 3,249 total yards, 234 points, 39 touchdowns, of which 37 were rushing (also a record), 5 consecutive 200 yard games, scored at least 2 touchdowns in 11 consecutive games, and 9 times he scored at least 3 touchdowns. Sanders also ran for 222 yards and scored 5 touchdowns in his three quarters of action in the Holiday Bowl - a game that was not included with his season statistics.[sup][2][/sup] Sanders won the Heisman Trophy as the season's most outstanding player. - Wikipedia

Emmitt Smith's rushing record is very vulnerable.

Cal Ripken's consecutive games record will never ever be broken. The amount of luck you need to play in that many games in a row is insane.

Although it's not the record, I dont think anyone will pass Kobe's 81 point mark.
