It seems like human nature to want to identify the “GOAT” (Greatest of All Time”) at something. But is it fair? I prefer to look at certain individuals, e.g., in the sports world, as “GOHTs” or, the Greatest of His/Her Time. The reason why is that it’s so hard to find an “all things being equal” comparison, especially when people are doing things decades apart. The rules change, playing conditions change, so many things CHANGE that the “GOAT” concept to me may always be relative.
