Got to be Brady right? It seems harder to win in football.

He’s surpassed Kareem in terms of all-time longevity. We’ll see how LeBron holds up. He ain’t bad for 37.

But Brady doing what he’s doing entering his mid-40s is unfathomable.

Well you see in one of these sports there are 11 guys on the other team that will not hesitate to take your head off. So I have to go with the guy that plays in that sport.

Lebron doesn’t belong in this conversation. Jerry Rice is more worthy of this conversation. Although it’s incredibly impressive what Brady is doing, playing QB is nowhere near as physically demanding as playing even a single game in the NBA, especially the way Jordan played it. Gotta give it to Jordan

Brady simply based on the fact that he won his championships 19 years apart.

Gordie Howe needs to be mentioned too.

Dude was playing pro hockey in his late 40s covering the entire ice. with no helmet, no teeth and during an era when the NHL was rough as hell.

Brady isn't in the MJ tier. He's no better than several of his peers in terms of his actual individual performance, in fact he's slightly worse than a few. Doesn't even come close to the statistical dominance of an MJ or Gretzky

MJ but I'll give Brady intellectual credit since playing that position is insanely hard next to whatever happens physically

Nolan Ryan pitched in MLB at age 46 - 4 mos shy of being 47.

Except he plays a position they can’t take his head off and one that requires him to barely run.

easily Brady. Man has more super bowl rings than any other franchise. He makes the super bowl at a higher percentage than Stephen Curry makes a 3 pointer.

Im going with the guy that's constantly on the court exerting far more energy.

My Mt. Rushmore of American athletes (taking into consideration dominance and legacy) consists of Ruth, Ali, Jordan and Brady.

But Jordan > Brady as an American sports icon and was better at his best.

I don't hate Brady, LeCry Baby I do.

One is a self absorbed douchebag

The other thinks the world cares what he thinks and that he is some kind of a Icon.
