G.O.A.T. or G.O.H.T.?

If you’re even a little bit into sports, you’ve heard the term G.O.A.T. — Greatest Of All Time. The GOAT.

And once that conversation starts . . . it never really ends, does it?

Take baseball. You’ll hear names like Ruth, DiMaggio, Williams, Mays, Aaron, Mantle . . . and then newer guys like Ohtani and Judge.

Ask ten people who the GOAT is, you’ll get ten different answers.

Same thing in basketball. Chamberlain, Kareem, Bird, Magic, Jordan, LeBron . . .

Everybody’s got their pick—and they’ll defend it like it’s their castle under siege.

Football? Unitas, Marino, Montana, Manning, Brady.
Golf? Nicklaus or Tiger.

And it doesn’t even stop at sports. People argue GOAT status in music, art, writing, invention – you name it.

But here’s the thing . . . it’s all opinion.

You can line up stats, championships, records—build a whole case for your pick.

And someone else will turn around and do the exact same thing . . . for someone completely different.

I heard Michael Jordan in an interview recently. He was asked if he thought he was the GOAT.

And he basically said . . . he doesn’t like the term.

Why? Because it’s not really fair to compare players from different eras.

And that got me thinking . . .

Maybe we need a different label.

What if instead of G.O.A.T., we used G.O.H.T. – Greatest Of His or Her Time.

Now you’re not trying to compare someone from the 1920s to someone playing today.

You’re just asking: who dominated their era?

It doesn’t eliminate the debate – nothing ever will.

But it does narrow things down a bit . . . makes the conversation a little more grounded.

And honestly, it gives more respect across the board.

Because maybe the goal isn’t to crown one GOAT over everyone . . .

Maybe it’s to recognize the greatness that showed up in every era.

So go ahead – have your GOAT.

But maybe start thinking in terms of G.O.H.T.: Greatest Of His or Her Time.

You might find the arguments get shorter . . . and the appreciation gets a whole lot bigger.

All the best,

John
