re: Post your Unpopular Sports Opinions

1) Lawrence Taylor is the most overrated player in the history of sports. How can he "revolutionize football" when Rickey Jackson started his career the same year and Andre Tippet started one year later? And Bum Phillips and Jerry Glanville were doing edge speed blitzes waaaaayyyy before 1981. If LT was a Saint and Rickey Jackson played in New York, we'd be talking about Rickey Jackson as the greatest of all time today.

2) Les Miles may not be a pimple on Nick Saban's arse, but he is far from being an idiot, and his offensive philosophy wins far more games than it loses.

3) There is nothing special about the Rose Bowl. Okay, maybe the view.

4) Sean Payton's ego and horriffic personnel decisions are more responsible for the Saints' downfall than Bountygate.

5) Ohio State-Michigan is AT BEST the 3rd best rivalry in college football, it could be argued that it could be lower, and nothing memorable has come out of those games in recent history except an occasional Heisman pose.
