James Harden finished 2nd in the MVP two of the last three years. He didn't make an All-NBA team (including third team) the year in between, while averaging 29.0 PPG, 7.5 APG, and 6.1 RPG.

Brady has been to 7 Super Bowls, Denver, Patriots, and Cowboys all have been to 8 or more. Did you mean Super Bowl victories?

If you took away every homerun Hank Aaron hit, he'd still have over 3,000 hits.

Corey Thompson was Eric Reid's back up as a freshman at LSU and is still on the team and projected to start finally this year. He has got to be one of the only players left in the country to participate in a game in 2012.

Nolan Ryan was 44 when he threw his last no hitter. I don't think he struck out 44 batters in a single game.

I think you misunderstood my stat.
I was just messing because I and a few others completely messed up some stats

The Atlanta Falcons led the New England Patriots in the third quarter of last season's Super Bowl 28-3




















And lost.

Nolan Ryan played against both Mickey Mantle, who started his career in 1951, and Tim Wakefield, who retired in 2011.

Or look at it another way...

Nolan Ryan started his career only 5 years after Ted Williams' last year in the league, and Ted Williams entered the league in 1939, and Nolan Ryan retired only 2 years before Derek Jeter entered the league, and Jeter retired in 2014.

So Nolan Ryan was nearly a connection between two all-time greats, one of which started in 1939 and one who retired in 2014.

Pure homer, but....

Auburn's streak of 8 consecutive years of having a player reach 1000 yards rushing playing against SEC defenses. 2010 and 2013 AU had 2 players reach the mark.

2009 - Ben Tate 1362 yards

2010 - Michael Dyer 1093 yards, Cam Newton 1473 yards

2011 - Michael Dyer 1242 yards

2012 - Tre Mason 1002 yards. The only highlight of this abysmal season. Had 920 yards going into the Iron Bowl and Bama was #1 rush D in NCAA that season giving up only 74.6 ypg

2013 - Tre Mason 1816 yards / Nick Marshall 1068 yards

2014 - Cameron Artis-Payne 1608 yards

2015 - Peyton Barber 1017 yards

2016 - Kamryn Pettway 1224 yards (only 209 attempts). Would have easily been top rusher in SEC if he had played in all 13 games (only played in 9)

more Joe Sewell

So he had 114 strikeouts in his career of 14 years.

9 guys have that many or more this season and number 10 has 113. It is only July, there may be 30 guys with more by the end of the year.

Cal Ripken started and played in 2,632 consecutive games

Until WVU finally stopped the skid in 1984, Penn State beat them 25 times in a row, in consecutive years.

Tre Mason was a great back but you do realize Saban let him get to 1,000 yards on purpose, don't you? He's even said so.

I heard speak about how much he loved Mason as a young man and how unfair it was that he was wasted on that horrible 2012 AU team. Mason has a lot of people in this state who love him. It's heartbreaking how his life has taken drastic turn. I hope he comes back better than ever.
