Fri, 21 Nov 2008 08:12:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Rodprime http://www.bomanijones.com/blog/2006/05/19/25-the-team/#comment-2624 Rodprime Tue, 23 May 2006 03:46:49 +0000 http://www.bomanijones.com/blog/?p=401#comment-2624 Bo Your love of Atlanta is appreciated. I was with the Braves when Murph was a slugger and the team was full of past-their-prime Yankees- Chris Chambliss and Claudell Washington. I was a Glenn Hubbard fan and I thought Pascual Perez and Andres Thomas was cool. I feel you on 'nique too. The NBA has slighted my man Dominique on the Props---such as, the slam dunk title, the dream team, the fifty greatest players list. No nique on the dream team. Christian Laettner? A greatest players list that includes Lenny Wilkens and Bill Walton and deigns to bounce Dominique Wilkins. I'm still seething. The Human highlight film was ATL all the way, pure power and explosiveness. Bo

Strange coincidence. Dolphins all the way for me, but I have to give Wilt the nod over Dan the Man. After all, no one is going to surpass that 20k stat!

Besides, your soul is just as old as my parachute pants. (I figured Charlie had to have the fix in to get picked over Doug Williams.)

The Chargers need to quit playing around and bring back the powder blues on a permanent basis. As for #14, what about Dan Fouts? You might also consider Charlie Joiner for #18. One of the all-time greats AND he isn't an idiot. <i>Sorry, kids...I'm not old enough for all of that. May I remind you I was born in the '80s? And are you the mayor of San Diego or something?</i> You could also consider Lance “Bambi” Alworth for #19.

At any rate, I still gotta go with Jordan over Lebron as the #23, can't argue with many of your selections -- that might be something i steal for next week.

When you think of the jheri box, Nique is the 1st person who comes to mind.

What's up with Deion Sanders for the 21 or 2 spot? Best cover corner and most exciting player with a high-top fade ever. Nique rivaled the fade tho... both did so aerially. Tough call. "Bo knows numbers." I second the Tony Gwynn nomination.
