The greatest comeback in sports history was 2017 Super bowl, Falcons played the Patriots. The Patriots were expected to win the game by a score of two touchdowns and that is how good the team was. The falcons came out up 27-3 it was unreal and nobody expected it to happen and everyone was shocked. At halftime the score was 27-3 and the Patriots needed to come out strong. They scored 7 points in the second half and were down 27-10 in the fourth quarter. It was going to be impossible for them to comeback and that is what people thought. They went nuts and scored 17 points in the fourth quarter without letting up any points, and they put the game into overtime. The Patriots got the ball in overtime right away and they had so much momentum they ended up scoring in the first posesion and people were shocked. Patriots ended up winning 34-27. I believe it was the greatest comeback in sports history because of how much they were behind in the game and how much time they had left to comeback.

Many people have their opinions on the greatest team to ever play in the NBA, some say the 1995-96 Bulls were the greatest team of all time and some say the 2017-18 Warriors were the best team. I believe that the 2017-18 season Warriors was the greatest team of all time. Many people are biased towards the day an age they were born and when they were around when those teams were both playing. MIchael Jordan was on the Bulls that one year they were really good and that is a big reason why people say they were the best team ever to play in the NBA. They also had Scotty Pippen and he was also a big part of that team. They had so much talent and they won 2 NBA championships back to back years and could have won more if the team stuck together. The Warriors I believe though were the best team to ever play in the NBA because of how much talent they had in their starting five. Each one of their players in the starting five literally could have played in the all star game which is unreal. The Warriors won one NBA championship well that team was together but they only played 2 years together as a team and the won year they lost, they were up 3-1 and should of easily won. They had the most talent ever on an NBA roster and they beat teams every night by a good amount of points and when they lost it was crazy because nobody expected them to lose a game and they should have literally won 78 of there games but sense players get hurt and the season is long it is super tough to do that. The Warriors are the greatest team of all time and it will be tough if anyone can past them.
I will be talking about why college student athletes should get paid for playing sports through there career in college. One of my many reasons of why student athletes should get paid is for how many times they have to miss class and what they need to do to make up for missing class. The amount of time student athletes have to miss for there sporting events is crazy and some even have to take classes in the summer to make up for all the missed classes there missing do to there sporting events. My next example of why student athletes should get paid is because I know for a fact that they for work harder than your typical average student , ur day in the life of a student athlete is usually goes like this, lift in the morning with the team, after that get breakfast and then you go to class or a couple classes and then after that you usually go watch film with the team for about 45 minutes and then after that go practice for about 2 hours and then usually go watch more film after practice. Some days is games obviously and those are the days are the days they miss a bunch of school and most of the time they miss two days because they leave a day earlier because that is just what they do. My last reason is student athletes may also need to work side jobs when there seasons are over and that is very stressful to the student athlete because they have to do more than one thing at one time. those are the reasons why I believe student athletes should get paid.
BarryIn my opinion Barry Sanders is the best running back ever to play in the NFL. He created the jump cuts and all the insane moves he had and used during his playing career. Sanders played for the Lions his whole career and is the all time leading running back for them in yards. Sanders is considered one of the greatest runningback of all time. People call him the goat of football, aka greatest of all time. Sanders rushed for 100 yards 76 games in his career. One short of the most all time in NFL history for running backs which is pretty impressive . He was drafted in 1989 NFL draft and he went to Oklahoma State in college and broke pretty much all the records at Oklahoma State which is also really impressive. Sanders joined the hall of fame in 2002 class listed as the top running back to play in the NFL during the course of his career. Sanders won rookie of the year in 1989 and his number 20 was retired by the Detroit Lions as well. He was also introduced into the college football Hall of Fame in 2003. Barry Sanders had moves like no other and that is what made him as special as he was. Kids growing up watching him did the same moves he created in the NFL and people copied his every move he made. that is how good of a running back he was and kids loved him. The reason I choose Barry Sanders as the best running back ever to play the game was not just cause of how good he was a how many awards he got and his stats. It was because he changed the game and how it was played by college football athletes and high school athletes. He also inspired so many kids to play the game of football showing how much the game was an impact on his life. Barry Sanders is the greatest running back of all time and I don't think anyone can get on top of what he did. Barry Sanders will always be the greatest running back of all time and if anyone tries and passes him for all of what he did that would straight up be impressive.
I have decided to talk about Michael Jordan. The legend of the NBA people will say. In my opinion Michael Jordan is the best player ever to play in the nba. What he has done to change the game is incredible, they way he plays the game and how he carries himself makes him an even better player. Some will say Jordan is the GOAT, aka the greatest of all time. I believe he deserves that name. He had an incredible NBA career. Jordan won 6 NBA finals, which means he has six rings. That is an unbelievable stat alone. Jordan played 15 seasons in the NBA and won 6 rings. that is nearly half his career he won a ring, that is very special and has never been done before. Jordans stats throughout his career are obviously unreal. He averaged 20 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assist and 1 steal. Many people would say well that is not very impressive to are day in age now. Jordan put those numbers up is whole career, which is very rare. Most people have a couple good seasons and after that they are not recognized and there forgotten. Jordan was consistent throughout his career and I think that is why he has 6 rings alone. In conclusion Jordan is the greatest player to ever play in the NBA because of his consistency, his rings and the stats he put up. Know one could guard him one on one and many players back then would even say they couldn't guard him. He is and will always be the greatest player of all time aka the GOAT.
I have decided to talk about the greatest wide receiver of all time. The great receiver in my opinion is Jerry Rice because of what he did to cornerbacks each and every week. He is one of the most consistent receivers to ever play the game. He won three Super Bowl rings throughout his career which is really impressive. His stat line was the stunningly amazing. His career total stat line was 22,84 yards , 197 touchdowns and 1549 receptions. Rice entered the Hall of Fame in 2010, August 7th. He is much deserving of being inducted into the Hall of Fame because of his career stats and his Super Bowl rings. Rice has always been the best in my eyes. It doesn't really matter who was on him for cornerbacks he was always better then the guy in front of him. He was one of the most consistent WR in the league, he torched cornerbacks every game, regardless if he was double coverage or even triple coveraged. Many people could argue different and say Randy Moss was better, Calvin Johnson was better, but in my eyes Jerry Rice did things other wide receivers could not do. In conclusion Jerry Rice is the best wide receiver to ever play the game in my eyes because of the stats he put up, the Super Bowl rings he got and how he was the most consistent receiver ever to play throughout his NFL football career, Jerry Rice is the greatest wide receiver of all time and someone really special will have to beat him out for that spot and I don't see anyone doing what he did and accomplish what he did with his rings and stats he put up throughout this whole career.
The Cavaliers and the Warriors are easily the biggest rival in the NBA. Both teams are good every year and usually make the NBA finals every year. In 2015 NBA finals the Warriors and the Cavaliers faced off, the Warriors got the best of the Cavs and won the serious 4-2. The next year they faced off for the second year in a row and the Warriors started off great winning two straight games but the Cavs kept fighting and came back and won 4-3. The next year, once again the same matchup happened and the Warriors won that 4-1. The best year was for sure the 2016 when the Cavaliers came back. down 2-0. People are saying that years finals was easily top three best finals ever played. The Warriors have had star players each and every year and so do the Cavaliers. The Warriors have Steph Curry and the Cavaliers have probably the best player in the league Lebron James. Curry averaged 28.6 points a game in 2016 and Lebron averaged 29.5 a game. The next year the Warriors signed one of the best players in the league in Kevin Durant. Everyone hated the Warriors and Durant for making that happened. The next year they played the Warriors and the Cavs faced off again in the finals nd this time the Warriors won it because of Durant which was a big steal for the Warriors. The following year they won once again.
