Peyton Manning has added another "ring" to his legacy.

[Akrazotile]

Yes I know there's a Superbowl thread, but this is a point about sports in general.

Peyton Manning will receive a "ring" for this season, even though his regular season was god awful when he DID play, and he also missed a chunk of it, and during the playoffs he was barely even replacement level for his position. I like him and I'm happy for him to be part of a SB win in his last year, but because there are so many hero-obsessed sports fan retards, his entire 'legacy' among the common rube has changed over the course of 60 minutes in which he did nothing remarkable whatsoever.

He has now doubled his 'ring' total. And because simple minded idiots have nothing to say except to bleet the simplest word possible when they look to attempt to join a conversation but have nothing to articulate, the perception will become reality. People who cannot understand how team's function or wrap there brains are things with multiple working parts just bleet shit like "Tom Brady!" "Obama!" The obsession with a Prince Charming figure who swoops in to save us all and then rides off into the sunset on a white horse with a supermodel behind him on the saddle. Fukking stupid sheep. Sports pundits are gonna analyze for the next 5 months what "2 rings" means for Peyton. Instead of pointing out the actual strengths and flaws of his game over 20 years.

The irony here is that Peyton's worst season saved his legacy :lol

Be happy for him, this is how Lebron is gonna win his 3rd ring 5 years from now.

Listen...

I lol'd.

But the point still stands.

[DonDadda59]

This is like Timmy Duncan winning his last championship. it doesn't make him a top 5 player of all time. It was Kawhi's Title. and a total disrespect to Mr. Leonard.

Bullshit.

Tim was easily better and more important to SA than Kawhi in the regular and post season, and could've easily won Finals MVP.

That's like saying 2015 was Igoudala's title.

Ridiculous.

[Lebron23]

Bullshit.

Tim was easily better and more important to SA than Kawhi in the regular and post season, and could've easily won Finals MVP.

That's like saying 2015 was Igoudala's title.

Ridiculous.

People discredited Shaq's title in 2006.

Shaq in 2006 >>> Tim Duncan

It was only in the Finals that Wade Kobe'd him.,

[Akrazotile]

Bullshit.

Tim was easily better and more important to SA than Kawhi in the regular and post season, and could've easily won Finals MVP.

Ridiculous.


Without a doubt. But they all played really well. Diaw could have won the damn award. It's a team game. They won a title because they all played well as a team. We don't have to give one guy the credit for something every time a team wins. But this is what sports fans always do.

One of the FMVP's earlier in his career probably could have gone to Manu, but when there's no clear cut guy they usually just give it to the biggest star. Just like when Kobe got his, and just like when Peyton got his Superbowl MVP against the Bears, where they basically ran the ball most of the game.

Player's legacies should not be built on the situations they were drafted into or signed into, or the awards idiots in the media heap on them or overlook them for.

If you are a sports fan and you have a brain, just fukking say which players you think are the best based on how they play. If YOU had a team, what order would you take great players in to play 10-15 years for your team? That's how people should decide who gets placed where. 'Resume' shit is retarded and includes a ton of chance bullshit unnecessarily.

But that's all we're gonna hear about this for the whole summer. "Peyton's second ring! What does this do for his legacy!?" Even though his contribution was to basically yell Omaha then snap the ball and that's it.

[plowking]

People discredited Shaq's title in 2006.

'13-'14 Reg Season
Duncan: 15.1 PPG/ 9.7 RPG/ 3 APG/ 1.9 BPG (49% FG)
Leonard: 12.8 PPG/ 6.2 RPG/ 2 APG (52% FG)

Playoffs
Duncan: 16.2 PPG/ 9.2 RPG/ 2 APG (52% FG)
Leonard: 14.3 PPG/ 6.7 RPG/ 1.7 APG (51% FG)

Finals
Duncan: 15.4 PPG/ 10.4 RPG/ 2 APG (57% FG)
Leonard: 17.8 PPG/ 6.4 RPG/ 2 APG (61% FG)

Timmy was the Spurs best, most important player all season and post season. Could've easily won FMVP too.

Lebron23 stop.

I don't. Shaq was runner up for MVP the year before. No he didn't dominate the finals, but he was obviously still critical to their success. Hell, so was Alonzo Mourning. He was a great rotation big for them. They won because they were a deep, quality team. If it was all Dwayne Wade, then why did he never sniff the second round after that season until Lebron showed up?

Teams win titles. Period. Individuals do not. But everyone is obsessed with crowning a new prince, a new hero. Turning the handsome young guy who scores a lot of points or hits a lot of home runs or throws a lot of touchdowns into Captain America. Even when his role is often just the visible manifestation of the work the entire team puts in. Shit's so beta.

[Lebron23]

Hell no.

Duncan was way better than Shaq in the finals in 2006.

I am talking about the whole 2006 Season

Shaq was 20/10 in the regular season, 19/10 in the playoffs. He and Duncan's and Shaq's numbers in the NBA Finals were almost identical 15/10 for Timmy D, and 13/11 for Shaq.

[24-Inch_Chrome]

What did this ring do for his legacy? He was a top 5 all-time QB win or lose, not like anyone will ever discuss this ring in an argument for where he ranks.

[ArbitraryWater]

Yea Shaq was bad in the '06 finals, but in the ECF he was doing 22/11 on 66%, and closed out the Pistons with a 30 point game :oldlol:

Miami went 42-17 (.712) with him and 10-13 (.435) without.

He averaged 20/9, and in the 5 games without Wade he did 20/10 on 65% and the team went 4-1.

2014 Duncan is oh so far removed from those abilities..


:biggums:

:facepalm

[Lebron23]

Lebron23 stop.


Check Shaq's regular season and playoffs stats. Only Duncantards rank him over Shaq was because he won 1 more NBA title, and 1 more Regular Season MVP than the big fellow.

Shaq could have been the NBA MVP in 1995, 2005, and 2001. Robinson was given the life time achievement award in 1995. No chance in hell that 27/10 was better than 29/11. At least during his prime he raped these team in the playoffs.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/awards/awards_1995.html


ESPN would rank Shaq over Timmy D. I won't be surprise.

:facepalm


Yup. I've said on this board for years that if you insist on declaring who on that title team was 'the man' you have to give Wade and Shaq co-credit. Just because Wade got to shine in the final series, people just basically forget everything else Shaq did. Shaq was a beast in Miami those first two years. They do not win titles without him. Wade was obviously a monsta as well. You can't separate the two and say 'well, this guy was really more important.' They were both integral. And even as good as the two of them were, without the cast they had around them they STILL wouldn't have won.

Professional basketball is hard AF. Nobody can just drag scrubs to a finals and win. Teams that win the finals achieve that for a reason, and it's usually because their best player is surrounded by a lot of other talent. And not every great player is fortunate enough to be put in that position.

He was 37/38 that season and still the best and most important player on his team. Look at Shaq at the same age. Replace him with 2014 Tim and the Cavs win the championship.

Exactly. I don't see these forum claiming Shaq was a top 5 player of all time when the Heat won in 2006.

And People are saying that Shaq doesn't have the longevity in his side. He was drafted in 1992. He played against a superior eastern conference teams when he was still with the Orlando Magic.

And despite being less healthy, and played less games than Tim Duncan. He was miles ahead in some of the statistical categories.

[nba_55]

OP makes a good point. These awards, rings are given too much importance when ranking players. Lebron played better in 2015 finals than in 2013 finals, yet 2015 is seen as something negative for his legacy. People focus too much on the end result instead of focusing on the whole process.

[enayes]

It's a nice way for Peyton to end his career but anyone who knows anything about football knows the kind of of year he had.

Both of Mannings superbowls ironically came in two of his less impressive years.

Obviously this year he sucked.

But even the year he won with the Colts his playoff run wasn't that good. It was the defense that year that carried the team as well. If I remember right he had more INTS than TDS in the playoffs. That team had the best defense BY FAR of all Mannings Colts teams and relied on it in a similar way(not as extreme obviously) to this years Broncos team. Bob Sanders was incredible that year.

As many years as Peyton Manning carried his team and had the best offense in the league by far, he usually ended up choking those years. Strange, now that you think about it.

If the Broncos would've lost, nobody would be claiming Manning as GOAT.

I'm not saying he doesn't deserve to be in the conversation but just because he was carried by that Denver D doesn't mean he should be looked at differently than before the SB.

He didn't even have a good game last night FFS :facepalm

[kurple]

These are two very different sports, obviously they don't have the same playstyle.

But when you compare achievements and careers, they're damn near identical.

Both have 2 championships
Both are the active leaders in MVP awards. Lebron with 4, Peyton with 5
Stat wise they've always been the most impressive in their respective sports. But haven't had the greatest success in the championship round
They've both played with 2 different franchises

You're blind if you don't see the comparisons
Lol at even trying to compare the NBA to the NFL. It's much thougher to reach the Super Bowl and especially win it than the NBA finals. Especially when you have 2 of the top5 players in the league on your team

Your analogy sucks.

MJ was always the best player in every Finals series (whether in his team or the opponent).

MJ was never carried. This version of Manning was very much carried (he has said so himself).

This version of Manning was at times even embarrassingly bad compared to his prime. You honestly telling me he was the main reason the Broncos got the SB title and not his team's defense?

Look at the stats he put up this past season, they were very subpar, even in comparison to his contemporaries, let alone his standards.

If Manning doesn't retire, then he's an idiot because he'll be even worse next season and he will either be on the bench or next time cost the Broncos a chance at repeating with his horrendous play.

He's finished.

The ring argument is turrible. Peyton didn't really earn too much of this ring...but i hardly ever see people taking context into the situation when talking about people's rings. So they have to count Peyton's this year, otherwise they are hypocrits.

'Resume' shit is retarded and includes a ton of chance bullshit unnecessarily.


That's how I try to rank players and when I do, my list isn't that much different then if I just ranked all-time great players by their resume. To me, resume is just EVIDENCE to how great a player is.

NBA is completely different from the NFL so you can't really apply the same Peyton argument. Every all time great usually gets enough legit chances at a title and each player can have a larger impact on the game in the NBA. NFL players can't pass, receive, and defend. In fact they can't even play half of the game. Not to mention the increased variability that comes with the playoffs being single elimination games.

ever thought that not everyone is obsessed with living amongst palmtrees and fake asses in thongs. Not everyone needs to live in Miami or Cali

Colorado is extremely beautiful and the people are more friendly there than any place ive been in the US. Manning seems like the kinda guy thay value those types of things

It's actually less impressive since he left the first team and signed with the team that gave em the best chance to win

You remember that free agency? Everyone was saying the 49ers might go undefeated with Manning and they were after him hard.

He went to a team that was just....ok. The 49ers were making moves and went to the superbowl without him. I suspect they were his best chance to win right away.

You wouldnt have Peyton doing anything he wasnt comfortable with. This guy is responsible for more yards than anyone in NFL history. They arent gonna tell him to rebuild his game from the ground up. They wanted him bad. ITs said that Harnaugh going after Peyton to hard and lying about it to Alex Smith was one thing that created a rift with the team long term.

I suspect the style of offense came up.

Peyton would have contended anywhere really. How often does a QB as good as he was....not contend? It happens...but it takes a pretty good sized failure of managment and injuries on top of it.

When he signed with the Broncos there was a nationwide "What....?". I thought he was going t othe 49ers. Some say he didnt want to meet Eli in the playoffs before the superbowl...I dont know about all that. But the 49ers were getting hyped.

[zoom17]

It's a good thing he didn't go to the 49ers one of the worst NFL fan bases.
