weird I can't get any clips from ESPN to play 🙁
I couldn't either until I turned off Adblock. Go figure.

I have a lot of respect for Lebron ~_~ Focused athlete trying to be the superstar people think he could be, but at the same time he doesn't let the pressure get to him and he still has a sense of humor and loves to laugh (not a fox like Kobe). He also has a lot of self-control and you won't ever see him actually partake in a fight or be provoked into a fight by another player.
I thought it was funny, especially the turn around smile for the camera 🙂
That being said, NBA basketball became dead to me after Jordan left for the second time. College BB FTW.
"He never carried his team."
"His touchdowns didnt help to win games."
You clearly know absolutely NOTHING about the lions, or possibly football for that matter. The lions are right up there as the worst franchise in any sport. Barry Sanders forced other teams to center on defending the run game in and game out. He played for a perennially horrible offensive line every single year.
I hope that was a troll post, because I can't imagine that anyone who knows anything about football could legitimately say something as retarded as that.
ps Joakim Noah is the tool in that video. God I hate him.
How many playoff games did Barry Sanders have negative rushing yards total? How many other great running backs have even one? If teams wanted to stop him they could, and in the playoffs they did.
A football team needs consistent gains to sustain drives. Barry Sanders was never able to do that, putting the rest of the offense and the defense in poor position with quick drives. So what if he rips a 45 yd "fantastic" run when his team is down 17. They keep track of YPC as an average which makes him look amazing. If they went with YPC as a median it would be a different story.
He was an electric runner and the only reason to watch a terrible team. But even on a good team he would kill them because of his "style" of consistent no gain and negative gain plays before breaking a random big one. This isn't baseball where failing 70% of the time is made up by hitting a homerun 6% of the time.
Back to the point I was making originally, Barry Sanders never celebrated a touchdown because he never had one to celebrate. He walked away from the game in great physical shape because he obviously wasn't having a good time out there.
I could not care less. I watch sports to entertain me. I love end zone dances and all the antics, it's funny and it's entertaining. I don't watch football/basketball for the "class" of the players. If I want classy entertainment, I'll go to the ballet.
