Sorry, although I love LT the very best Football player of all time is Walter Payton. Was all time leading rusher & that coincided when the best player was put at Tailback. Also returned kicks at a high level in early part of career. Was also the backup Kicker & Punter. And was the 3rd string QB & actually started a game at QB vs New Orleans in 83 when Bears were decimated by injuries at position. In that game Chicago ran the single wing(or Wildcat for all you youngsters) & if you remember, Walter was a threat throwing the ball off of the halfback option pass. I love LT, he, Butkus, or Deacon Jones/Reggie White were the most dominant defensive players ever. But nobody, nobody(& in Chicago Michael Jordan is a notch below Sweetness. Believe it) is a better athlete,football player, or person than Walter Payton.

Without question, THE GREATEST FOOTBALL PLAYER THAT'S EVER PLAYED THE GAME POINT BLANK PERIOD.

what can you say, LT was the greatest defense player in the history of the NFL, PERIOD

LT is the greatest football player to ever play the game. I was a kid watching LT'S rookie season and my father called him Superman! He told me that I'd never see another player like this in my life, and he is and was right. Everyone knew it if you were a Giants fan! I wish there was another LT, but my dad was right. There will never be another LT! Thanks for the awesome memories as a child LT! You're the best!

Andre Tippet was every bit as good as LT, but Tippet never played on a good team like LT did. LT was surrounded by other great defensive players, while Tippet was not. Tippet could EASILY have replaced LT on the Giants, and the Giants' defensive productivity would NOT have gone down.

I will never forget that Thanksgiving game at Detroit! Detroit is driving for the winning score and they were in the Red Zone. Detroit's QB threw a swing pass in the flat and LT picked it off and ran it back the other way for a Giant's TD! What a play and what a game!

He could alter the Course of a game with one play, whether a sack, ff, interception, or just By making the offense aware of where He was on the field at all times. He played in pain on a regular basis. Remember the game where he played With a separated shoulder, where he just put a brace on and went back in And played. What a monster on the field.

never was a giants fan, but after watching this, i am a lawrence fan........

Awesome documentary that captured the outsized life LT lived, but also showed how human he is as he deals with the same problems as anybody else. LT is truly a one-in-a-billion person. Lucky to have been created not only with otherworldly physical talent - but a mental fortitude to match. People on a similar path of fame and fortune mixed with heavy drug abuse often succumb via a life-ending calamity or to the degenerative effects of abuse. It’s unbelievable that he’s still strong enough mentally and physically to live a chill retirement after everything he’s put himself through.

#56 is in every password & on every Giants jersey I've ever had... LT, Doc Gooden, Darryl Strawberry & Mike Tyson mid 80's NYC area royalty.... Young, flawed & troubled yes but also at the top of their professions at the same time... Tyson & Strawberry have come out the other side & appear to have found serenity, peace & happiness... LT & Doc I can't say the same as of now but this is just my opinion... I've met all four multiple times each over the years living in North NJ just outside NYC sometimes accidentally & all positive encounters... Very cool guys especially LT & every time I met him we were both drunk & twice I ren into him on a Saturday night in Hoboken before a 1pm home game well past curfew... But never did it effect his performance... He's the best ever, an all time all timer... PERIOD

As a father, a friend, a person and foremost a man , when it's time the fewer regrets one has out weighs the alternative. I have some parenting regrets that I'm going to face after viewing this and I hope LT does the same.

I knew LT at Bruton Heights in Williamsburg, Virginia when he was 10-12 years old. He was in my brother's sixth grade class. His brother was in my seventh grade class. A quiet kid, of average height and stocky, he wasn't known for being exceptionally athletic.

It’s really kind of amazing how people who have incredible abilities and accomplish great things almost always have negative forces in them that are almost just as prevalent.

LT was one of the greatest, period. It’s sad that he didn’t have more love in his heart for his wife and kids than he did. But IMO he is the poster child for all that is wrong with sports today. These young men are catered to from middle school thru HS, it gets worse in college and by the time a young man makes it to the league (unless they have a really grounded strong father figure) in their life they behave like spoiled children. Because they are. I know I was. It’s not healthy to never be told No!! The new rules in college sports is just gonna make it worse. Kids will be millionaires while still in college. Because of this the quality of play will suffer. It’s hard to motivate young men that are already rich. One thing about LT he played like a house on fire because he loved the game and he played before the ridiculous contracts. IMO all college and pro sports are in sharp decline.
