GOAT
-
There's is no such thing as the greatest of all time. Graham can't be compared to Brady for a number of reasons, mostly because in Graham's era you ate a five course dinner, smoked a cigar, and drank a few whiskeys before hitting the field.
Graham was the greatest of his time. Brady is the greatest of this time. That's all there is to it.

Fair enough. Its a family photo anyway.

Brady is the GOAT in terms of rings. Montana never lost a Super Bowl in his era.
In what mathematical system is 5 more than 7?
(and which one of us got a name change for being a douche?)

See what I mean folks.
Impossible to talk football with someone clueless.
You mean someone that knows that 7 Championships is more than 5? There is talking football (see TCs post), and there is just being..like you said...clueless.
You must have been a product of the Betsy DeVos school of learning.

Many say that Unitas is the best of all time.
Called his own plays and in those days you could do everything but murder to NFL Quarterbacks.
Yes....as TC said, and I agreed...it is a team photo. And Brady, OG, JU, Joe M. etc. are in the photo.

So...you agree with him that BB, TB and the Pats never cheated. It was all a conspiracy against them. (that is his claim).
An you agree with him that Tom Brady's 5 titles is more than Otto Graham's 7?
And you got all stupid with me over the fact that I forgot that Brandon Weeden started game one of his rookie year?
And you got all stupid with me because it is my opinion that the Browns need a QB, first and foremost priority?
Yet you defend this feckless fugat?
Just so we are clear on where you are coming from.

Arthur. I've got 3 copies of it including 40th and 50th anniversary. One of those great American novels.
Next question. On whom did she base the character of Dill?
Ding ding ding... we have a winner.
I remember hearing about all the characters' roots back during the anniversary specials and pub of Harper Lee's original manuscript (IIRC), but not all the details.
I do remember a couple specials at the time talking about her friendship with Truman Capote, which was documented in two different movies about his researching and writing In Cold Blood. Dill was prissy enough to be Capote, but the timing seems off since ... Blood came years later than To Kill...
So I give...
Will you two just give it a fucking rest already? Every thread ends up clogged with your endless back and forth. Some of us actually want to talk about football.
There is a cure for that... just sayin'...

You are right. Her childhood friend was Truman Capote author also of Breakfast at Tiffany's from the late 50's, well before In Cold Blood.
I just went to Wiki to retrieve this:
Friendship with Harper Lee
Capote based the character of Idabel in Other Voices, Other Rooms on his Monroeville neighbor and best friend, Harper Lee. Capote once acknowledged this: "Mr. and Mrs. Lee, Harper Lee's mother and father, lived very near. She was my best friend. Did you ever read her book, To Kill a Mockingbird? I'm a character in that book, which takes place in the same small town in Alabama where we lived. Her father was a lawyer, and she and I used to go to trials all the time as children. We went to the trials instead of going to the movies."[15] After the Pulitzer Prize was awarded to Lee in 1961 and Capote published In Cold Blood in 1966, the authors became increasingly distant from each other."

Cool... I always forget about his authorship of ... Tifany's...

Many suspect that it was Truman Capote who actually wrote To Kill a Mockingbird.:
In the decades since Harper Lee published TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD in 1960, her novel has been shadowed by a persistent rumor. The speculation has been that Lee's long time friend Truman Capote either wrote or heavily edited the book, which would go on to be a bestseller and win the Pulitzer Prize.
I believe though that the rumors were denied by both parties....(but who really knows)

Oh, fiddle-de-de Ms. Scarlett-we's on @ 11pm CST Thurs.

From Goats, to books to movies. Where do we go from here. I know. How about a Fresca?

QB yes, still might be able to argue Jim Brown overall but you can make a solid argument for Brady

The greatest of all time was LT. The Giants LT. Enough said.

Interesting but could be argued he isn't the best defensive player, Reggie White

"One said:

LT caused offenses to completely change the way they played football with pass protection, QB drop backs, quick releases and more, he was a bad dude to try to line up against....just ask Joe Theismann.
I thought LT was kind of a jerk until I heard him talk once, the NFL brass was almost laying for him waiting for him to screw up.
But he was an adrenaline junkie and ran afoul of the rules with his coke use but in that interview he said how I'll prepared he was for the big, fast lifestyle in the NFL. He said once he was just a young guy sitting in a bar with everyone glorifying him and he had $8,000 cash in his pocket, no wonder he could easily get into trouble.
His fault or not he was a bad dude that most fans would LOVE to have on their team on Sunday afternoon.
