I would argue this, too. How can you possibly say someone is the best if they could not stay on the field? You can speculate only. There is no data to back it up. Barry Bonnell was supposed to be the second coming of Dale Murphy, but he broke a leg. After that he did very little. Would you argue that he is the GOAT because of his potential?

For the third fricking time, in the discussions I was having, we were talking about athleticism, not the "best." I'm not sure why that doesn't get through to you, but apparently no matter how many times it is said, you can't absorb it.

I'm about to leave the office so can't respond, but honestly how do you measure athleticism? If we're just posting statistics on the field that's simply data about production. Babe Ruth is considered the GOAT baseball player but I'd bet a great deal he wasn't "more athletic" than some of the guys playing today.
