March 8, 20214 yr Came here to post that article from Espn. Great read. I'm not crying you're crying.

Maybe one clown/actor/wrestler, but.....Betting/gambling had nothing to do with Pete getting over 4000 hits. 23 seasons (during real Baseball not watered down by expansion clubs), with 17 yrs as an All Star. RoY, A league MVP, 3 World Series, WS MVP, 2 Gold Gloves, Silver Slugger and 3 batting titles. He may have messed up after his playing days and wasn't truthful, but there are guys in Cooperstown that did much worse WHILE PLAYING that don't have anything close to that resume.
April 27, 20214 yr Not only was Earl Campbell much better at football than Pete Rose was at baseball, but Pete Rose is indeed a clown. As a person, he's a clown. My post was not only reasonable but also accurate. Ric Flair is a professional clown, Pete Rose is just a clown.
May 27, 20214 yr I’m too young to have ever watched him play, but still my favorite player of all time. Hook em Earl.

But he's not in the same class as Campbell and Williams. Jamaal Charles would be the third for multiple reasons, including the fact that if you have Campbell and Williams then Charles would compliment them as the speed back.

June 8, 20214 yr 6 hours ago, Grade of D as in David said: It's definitely not Sam Bowie I’ve never been much of an NBA fan, so I haven’t seen much of him in almost 40 years. I reckoned someone who looks like he’s 60 and would dwarf VY if he stood up might be LaSalle Thompson.

July 14, 20214 yr Very cool Earl swag at his Tyler Rose shop. Man, if Bo Jackson sent the little Tecmo dudes flying around, I'd have loved to see Earl. Bo was quite a bit faster and really strong but not quite the bulldozer Earl was. Nobody was, ever.
July 31, 20214 yr Author Sark should have Earl speak to our players before we head up to play Arky, on what to expect!

Average would certainly be under 275, probably closer to 260. There were other backs the size of the Earl in his day, but nobody with the speed and punishing running style. That '69 title team's biggest guy was 275. The rest were 225 or smaller. They started getting bigger in the 70s and much bigger in the 80s. Earl was just strong.

He was a winner who gave 110% every moment he was on the field.
