Wikipedia: A journeyman is a tradesman or craftsman who may well have completed an apprenticeship but is not yet able to set up their own workshop as a master. In parts of Europe, as in later medieval Germany, spending time as a journeyman, moving from one town to another to gain experience of different workshops, was an important part of the training of an aspirant master. <font color="#666666"> In later medieval England, however, most journeymen remained as employees throughout their careers, lacking the financial resources to set up their own workshops. </font>

It seems it can be either. I always interpreted Journeyman as an older player who had spent his career on several teams, never really finding a home.

Montana &gt; Marino &gt; Young

And Marino's closer to Montana than he is Young.

Gotta love these boards. We've gone from star quarterbacks to medieval training requirements all in one thread.

Yeah, I just realized that. Too much time on the board I guess.

I would have to take Marino.

Good arguements have been made on each side and I can agree with most all of them in some fashion or another...

I think for me what it boils down to and how I would campare them is to answer one question:

- What would each of them do on the others team?

...ie, If Young was on the Dolphins, in the same time period, and Marino on the 49ers'

I think when we do that, it is clear for most to see that Marino would have absolutely thrived with that much better 49er's overall team, while Young, imo, would not with the Dolphins.
