Well when you are the most dominate ever, I guess it wouldn't be hard for people to think you're overated.

hes like a giant 10 year old. He lacks coordination and rules have to be changed because of him. He is simply a giant, he has little skill.

I was impressed w/ his improvement in freethrows. But he still sucks.

Wrong. First, you don't hear that much about Ripken now that he's retired. Second, he redefined the shortstop position by hitting for power and making an art out of positioning based on pitching, hitters, count, etc. Ripken was mediocre by the end but he is a positive example of a guy who shows up to work every day, has some ethic and heart, etc.

Ripken haters can eat [censored].

I actually believe Favre was very underappreciated in his earlier years, even though he was awarded three straight MVPs.

He had a stretch of 16 games, including playoffs and Super Bowl, over two seasons (95-96) where he threw 49 TD and 7 INT.

He has lost his mobility and therefore some of his big play ability, and is no longer a top 5 QB in the league. But, his run of 5 seasons from '94 to '98 would stack up against any QBs 5 yr run in history.

I could agree he is presently overrated, but not all-time overrated.

OMG, I cannot beleive I forgot about Favre!

Brady may have been a slight exaggeration, but I can say with 100% seriousness that Brett Favre is the most overrated athlete ever. Living in MN I saw a ton of Packer games on TV and it is absolutly disgusting how much the announcers slob on his knob. If he throws a pick, its always them reciever's fault for running the wrong route, or the O lines fault for not giving him enough time, or the coaches fault for calling the wrong play, blah blah blah. It seriously makes me want to puke.

Brett Favre=Most overrated athelet ever. End of thread.
