Check out Barry Sanders at #9........ridiculous

yeah but he did his in College, and the 8 people in front of him all had monster years. Those are some absurd college numbers though.

Sweet Jesus. 3200 yards total offense sounds like the Arizona Cardinals season totals, not Barry Sanders.

I think Tiger should have been number 1, even though it is hard to argue against Barry

Marino threw for 48 TD in one season? J.H.C.

this postseason crap annoys me. Sanders gets 6 ypc and get shafted because TD has Elway playing on his side...

They were correct in putting Pedro Martinez on the list but they picked the wrong season. He was so much better in 2000 than he was in 1999 it's ridiculous.

They must weight heavily on wins but I agree with you...1.74 ERA and 4 SHO's

Geez, I was bitching because 2000 Pedro wasn't in the top 25. Now I see he's not in the top 100. It was the greatest season by a pitcher in the last 35 years and they somehow managed to find eight seasons by pitchers that are better.

Also, why Rice's 89' season at #25. Didn't he have way better years than that?

I was annoyed that Wayne Gretzky's best year (1982 he was just SICK) wasn't even included in the Top 25; I think they included 1985 instead because of his eye-popping playoff numbers.

I don't think that we will ever see a player even come close to matching the numbers that "the great one" put together in 82. EVER!!!
