   71: GOATS Among Us

   One question. One rule. Still playing. Joe Willie and Tom Beer run the whole board, every sport, every active player, and ask the only question that matters right now: Is there a GOAT among us? 🐐 Katie Ledecky. Simone Biles. Mikaela Shiffrin. The names that don't need a debate. Then it gets complicated. 🐐 Ovechkin broke Gretzky's record. Does that make him the greatest goal scorer ever? Joe says no. Tom says yes. They argue it out. 🐐 Ohtani is on pace to pass Lou Gehrig in home runs, potentially Willie Mays, maybe even Babe Ruth. The numbers say it's possible. The position says otherwise. 🐐 Mahomes has 3 rings, a better completion percentage than Brady, a higher passer rating than Brady, and is 3X behind him in everything else. Tom Beer does the math and lands where nobody wanted to land. 🐐 LeBron goes to Philly for $52 million less than he could make. Two more seasons. Can he pass Jordan? Tom Beer says impossible and doesn't budge. Joe agrees but leaves a crack in the door. Goats among us. Let's get after it. Recorded: 7/29/26 Timestamps 04:39 Soccer Stars 08:16 Evaluating Alex Ovechkin and Wayne Gretzky 14:31 The Versatility of Shohei Ohtani 21:01 Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady Legacy 30:13 The Basketball GOAT Debate 42:13 Rising Stars and Sports Chaos 47:30 Predicting Future GOAT Candidates GOATQUEST is your ultimate platform to dive into the age-old debate: Who is the Greatest of All Time?
