Bill Simmons - How Memories Fade
Just read an interesting article by the man Bill Simmon's about whether "greatness" has a shelf life?
Does greatness have a shelf life? I would say no, but we do tend to forget some of the amazing things that have happened in past, when we see something fantastic in the present.
Greatness?
Bill Simmon's speaking in regard to Bron's 48 point night -
More than a few people played the "MJ was great, but he never had a game like that!" card, as if Jordan's remarkable career needed to be demeaned for everyone to fully respect what LeBron had accomplished. I even wrote online that Jordan never physically overpowered an opponent the way LeBron ramshackled the Pistons and compared him to Bo Jackson and the way he wreaked havoc in his prime.
So what do people think. Does greatness really have a shelf life?
