RE: ADSactly Sports - The Greatest Players of All-Time - Who is the G.O.A.T? (Part 4)
Goalies always tend to remain unmentioned. Goaltenders are like the unsung heroes of the game and every once in while, when they are mentioned my heart goes out to them. Thanks for taking care to mention them here buddy :-)
The great players of any game make it look so easy that it is a little difficult to watch others struggle to catch up to them. Since we as regular folks know little about being professional players, our expectations are set by the level of the heroes or great players of that game.
For example, I never watched golf, until Tiger Woods came along. Then after him, it was a disaster for me as I couldn't understand why others were not matching up to his skill level. When in truth, players like Tiger Woods are only born once in a century and even the most skillful players of later times cannot step into those shoes of greatness left behind by these 'Greats'.
You are so right. The greatest players have a way of making the game look so easy and even more outstanding is how they can make the players around them better.
