The competition in one specific era cannot be compared to one in another era, this is impossible.
For instance, take Rod Laver in Tennis. If he played in the 'Federer era' and with better equipment, such as a better racquet, Tennis court etc ..., who knows what he could have achieved?
You'd have to define 'greatness' too, and apportion to it some specific parameters from which you can judge sportsmen throughout various disciplines. Until then, it's a basically pointless and impossible exercise.
But as the poll asks "of the last decade" then i think your Rod Laver comparison is null and indeed void.

Mike you do realise this means he thinks that you don't have the capacity to execute your mod powers. Basically he is calling you a barely functioning moron. If I were you I'd ban him for that sort of thing.Last edited by dww; 04-01-10, 05:49 PM."The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind."

If i thought he had the capacity, how would that be accusing him of being a "barely functioning moron" ?? Now if you'd said i don't think he has the capacity, that would make more sense. Sheesh, you call yourself a mod??
