They could still do it today

[Dmac]

So, today despite retiring last year Chelsea have included Legendary Goalkeeper Petr Cech in their Premier League squad. Apparent only as emergency cover for the other 3 Goalkeepers they also named. Still, that's impressive for me.

He played 300+ games for Chelsea before leaving for Arsenal and playing another 100+. Not to mention the 100+ International appearances for Czech Republic. He then returned to Chelsea in a coaching capacity, but he is right there if they need him.

While the reference to Petr Cech will be lost on a lot of you as it's Soccer, I'd like to see some examples of Athletes of yesteryear who you think could still run onto a pitch/field/court right now and still perform with the best.

Who you got?

He's too old now but I think Jerry Rice coulda washed some current NFL defenders for YEARS after his retirement

 

[Kim Jong Umb]

Terrell Owens

Chad Johnson

Dez Bryant

Tebow could start as QB for the Jets...

Even with my very limited NFL knowledge.

With due respect. Couldn't the equipment manager start as Quarter Back for the Jets right now and be just as effective?

And what relevance does this have to the thread?

And what relevance does this have to the thread?

Because I ripped the Jets and the Raptors are my team. It does have relevance man.

Shane Warne
Sachin Tendulkar

Shane Warne
Sachin Tendulkar

Never considered Cricket actually.

Tendulkar 100%. He would give fielders nightmares still.

Warne though I'm not so sure. Legendary and rightfully so but once retired his practice stops and would be hard to pick back up.
