I agree.

I can't hear the calls for Ted Williams and Unitas from the sound of Championship rings clanging.

Howe vs. Williams is an interesting debate. Unitas and Yzerman not as much. BTW, Johnny U won three rings.

Yogi deserves as much consideration as Yaz and Stargell at #8. Kobe Bryant should probably be included with that number also.

Hah. It was fine with me when he left town, never liked him. As I used to say, most overrated .350 hitter in history.

Spot on about him being overrated, but I think you misunderstand me. I hate the Red Sox and love the Yankees. Getting that guy just wasn't right, and diminished the Yankee brand IMO. Some might say the same for Clemens, but at least he had been booted to Toronto first.

Howe vs Ted is interesting, as far as hearing over any clinking, someone once said " Ted Williams lived the life that John Wayne dreamed about". Overall, I think the no doubts are #`s 3, 7, 13, 23, 42, 99, with 9 and 4 being the biggest tossups off the top of my head. Also, 33 between Bird and Alcindor also very close. Fun thread !!
