I love watching TV sports shows. To me, many of the interesting things about sports aren’t the games but learning about the players. They are more than just numbers on shirts or jerseys. What they have to go through to reach their level of skill is inspiring. And humbling. To get where they are takes not only talent but a commitment that sometimes borders on obsession.
And each summer, like clockwork, when sports hit the annual slow period, the talking heads pull out their evergreen topics they like to argue. And one of the most popular arguments they like to rehash is: Who is the G.O.A.T? Who is the Greatest Of All Time?
