Mike Trout On Pace To Be The G.O.A.T.?

Sports is all about comparisons, we compare people from different eras all the time. The LeBron and Jordan comparison in the NBA is an great example, the Tom Brady and Joe Montana comparison in the NFL. These are just examples that keep the sports conversations going on and on. It's pretty fun to talk about when you have people around you that know what they are talking about.

The best player in every sport is always an debate. This is an debate that goes on forever and it's always interesting to hear what people have to say and their reasoning for saying the things they say.

I'm here to tell everyone this, Mike Trout at this rate will be the best player of all time when he retires. The way he has came and dominated baseball since he was called up on July 8th, 2011 is just purely amazing. In his 5 full seasons he has made the AL all-star team all 5 times and finished top 2 in the AL MVP voting all 5 times. He won the AL MVP award in '14 and '16 and if Miguel Cabrera didn't win the triple crown in 2012 he probably would've won MVP in that season too. The domination that he's showed since being in the major leagues is amazing. He's basically been the best player in baseball since he's been in the MLB and there is no sign of it slowing down. He made the all-star team this year missing half of the first half of the season. 

Trout has often been compared to Bryce Harper because Bryce Harper is the other great young star in the league. The problem with this is Mike Trout has been so much better there's no reason to even compare them. The dominance that Trout has showed over the last 5 and a half seasons has been unmatched not by just Harper......by anyone in MLB history. He has the  Wins Above Replacement (WAR) for every age from 20-25. He most likely finish top 2 in the MVP voting after missing 7 weeks of the regular season which would make 6 season of finishing in the the top 2 of the MVP voting.


This just in......Mike Trout is better than everyone else, and it's really not fair.

Take The Blame!

These days people getting caught cheating left and right, and it’s getting worse because of the social media era. People be having sexual intercourse and be recording it. The person that’s recording is prolly going to put it on social media to show off. All the touching and twerking and licking on people gets reported too which means you’re probably going to get caught. What I don’t like is people quick to blame social media for they relationships messing up. You can’t blame social media sites for what you or partner did behind each other’s back. Just like when people blatantly flirt on social media they want to blame other people for their mistakes. Why not just break up with the person or not do the things that is considered cheating to start with? My thing is this, if social media broke up your relationship, how strong was your “relationship” anyways?

2017 Warriors vs. 2001 Lakers?

The Golden State Warriors as currently assembled are probably the best team in NBA history. They have the most likely the two best shooters in NBA history in Stephen Curry, and Klay Thompson. They have a great defender in Draymond Green that can guard anyone on the court basically, not to mention Green makes plays for the Warriors on offense and is a great leader for them. Then they have Kevin Durant who’s easily the best scorer in NBA this generation. He’s seven feet tall and can handle the rock with such grace you wouldn’t think he’s actually 7 feet. They have a do it all player in Andre Iguodala who does everything for the team. A lot of people are saying this team will beat any team in a 7 game series. I’m here to dispute that claim. The 2000-2001 Los Angeles Lakers were an all time great team. They featured Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal and a perfect cast of role players around them. They ran the triangle offense perfectly taught by Phil Jackson and had Shaq protecting the

Anthony Davis THE MAN.

This NBA season has been full of incredible story lines, but one story seems to being overshadowed a little too much. Anthony Davis is a superstar basketball player. People are seeming to overlook that saying he's just a star because he hasn't won any playoff games, or they say he hasn't won any awards and things like that. The playoff wins are a bad point to me, to win a playoff series win the team he has currently constructed is comparable to the teams that Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson and Lebron James carried respectively. Those teams needed real life superstars to make it to the playoffs. Anthony Davis to be is not getting a fair shake to me in terms of being a superstar. He's has been dealt a bad hand overall. He has played on bad teams his whole career. The only thing I can hold against him is that he gets injured a lot. He has missed a lot of a games with a lot of injuries over his career. The New Orleans Pelicans went out and got DeMarcus Cousins last year at th
