February 6, 2017: Best Ever?

posted in: Bears, Blackhawks, Bulls, Cubs, White Sox | 1

Ok, so yesterday’s super bowl was pretty good. Biggest comeback ever.  First QB with 5 Super Bowl rings. Best franchise in the NFL?  Or was it the biggest choke job ever?  However you define it, people are already calling this the best ever.

The best ever is surely subjective.  Defining someone or something as the best, kind of depends on a person’s point of view. I’m sure Falcons fans and Patriot haters aren’t labeling this the best ever.  Sure, it was a phenomenal game for all the reasons I mentioned above, plus being the first OT in Super Bowl history.  You’d be lying if you said this one doesn’t rank up there. But best ever?

My personal best is Super Bowl XX.  Duh. That was the best single season team ever; that’s not disputable. But for any fan base, the one where your team won it all is ranked ahead of all others. If you have been lucky enough to win multiple titles, than you have multiple choices.  Like the 91 Bulls title is my favorite NBA Finals.

When it comes to the question of best QB ever, you have to deal with similar POVs.  Montana, Elway, heck even Otto Graham who brought seven championships to Cleveland, yeah the Browns, could be ranked up there.  But similar to this game, and its rank, Brady is up there too.  With the only QB to win 5 Super Bowls, he has a pretty compelling argument.

Now to say he’s the best team athlete ever…that’s opening up a whole ‘nother can of worms.  Actually, for us, it’s an open and shut can. 6 rings, 6 Finals MVPs, undefeated on the biggest stage…yeah, its MJ then everybody else.  But back to these best evers…

With this stuff watched by more and more people, with the constant growth of social media, the recent games get an unfair advantage.  That being said, the last handful of championships have been pretty good.  NFL, NCAAF, MLB, and NBA have all had some classics lately.  Best ever though?

This can be an ongoing discussion for weeks. Obviously I think this year’s World Series was the best ever. But the NBA Finals???  Heck no.  Clemson over Alabama best ever?  Don’t watch enough college football to know that. Although because I really don’t have a horse in that race, maybe I can share an unbiased opinion.

Sports brings out some strong feelings and opinions in all of us. That’s part of what makes them so great. For me, this passion allows me to write about it every day.  For many, we live and die with our teams.   Lots of Falcons fans dying today…

It’s an emotional roller coaster, no doubt. I just talked about how losing the Super Bowl was probably the worst ever. I can’t imagine blowing it the way the Falcons did.

Whatever side of the fence you’re on, we move on. The nice thing is that champs are remembered forever. The bad thing is that 2nd place finishers are not.  The good thing is we get to see a brand new story written next year. I always like the stories where my teams are included better. That’s the best.

    First Super Bowl to go to OT, biggest comeback in SB history, and first qb to win a 5th title qualifies this game as one of the best SB games ever. I would have been happy no matter who won. I wanted a good game and got it. Almost got that Pats win by a fg, too. Brady wins #5 and is probably the best qb to ever play. Thing is, he wants to play 5 more years so who knows if #6 will come. He and the pats had an unreal comeback but were definitely helped by the falcons choking the game away.
    Best athlete, MJ without question.
    Best nfl team, he 85 Bears.
    Best nba team, pick one of Bulls with MJ.
    Best mlb WS, Cubs winning it last year.
    See a trend there? Hahaha
    Sports stories are, without a doubt, better with our Chicago teams in them. Bhawks, your story concludes next…bring home that 4th Cup in 8 years!
