Only athlete prehistoric whose accomplishments respect is Jesse Owens

[Buckeye Fever]

I hate when muthafukkaz say nikkaz like Red Grange, Babe Ruth, and other dead of old age ass nikkaz are some of the best athletes ever.

Red Grange would be a walk on AT BEST in this era.

fukkin Devin Gardner would be a Heisman trophy winner in Grange's era.

Babe Ruth would be in the minors in this era.

Jesse Owens is a Buckeye and sonned Hitler in person.

I'm not sure you can discount advanced dieting techniques, training equipment, medicines, supplements etc.

I dont care what kind of training Grange would have in these times.

He played against all white boys

All his "accomplishments" should be looked at like

Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Fritz Pollard just to name a few....

You could have just made a Jesse Owens appreciation thread and I would have co-signed since Owens is the founder of the "Make 'Em Mad Club"...

But you lost me with that Babe Ruth slander

Hitler actually shook Owens' hand later on, and sent him an inscribed photo. He was treated better in Germany than in the US. The White House never congratulated him, nor did they invite him there.
