[QUOTE="Umaga's Witness, post: 946041, member: 65365"] I don’t buy the ‘he played in a team that won tournaments and stuff’ argument. No one player can be deemed responsible for such feats. These things just make the player more available to memory. It’s called availability bias. You can put the worlds best ever player into a crap team and the team will still be crap. Some players can influence an outcome more than others, sure, but you can’t judge a player based on their team’s results. But I agree with the crux of what you are saying. If you have watched the player yourself (otherwise it isn’t your opinion) you can see how influential they were in their time coMpared to the peers of their time. [/QUOTE]
