There’s a full-blown, raging battle going on between Hall of Fame wide receivers.
Randy Moss’ comments on the Terrell Owens podcast that he was the greatest wideout of all-time and T.O. was second rankled Jerry Rice. Now, Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer Michael Irvin has jumped into the fray, basically questioning Moss’ sanity.
“Jerry Rice is the greatest of all time,” Irvin said on 95.7 The Game’s “Damon, Ratto and Kolsky” show. “If anybody says anything other than that, they need to see some kind of doctor to examine his cranium. Period.”
Irvin is on firm turf as Rice’s statistics and resume stand far above those posted by any other wideout in NFL history.
“You gotta pay homage to what this man has done. … This shouldn’t even be a discussion,” Irvin said. “I got Jerry Rice up there with the greatest player ever, period. I don’t wanna hear wide receiver. I’m talking about period, of all time.
“This discussion should not be a discussion.”
So long as diva wide receivers have mouths, there is going to be a discussion, no matter how off-base their opining might be. It is what they do because their personalities are nothing short of art forms.
