The greatest hockey player ever, Robert Gordon "Bobby" Orr, turned 60 on Friday. It seems like just yesterday that he was on the ice making opponents look like fools. Unfortunately numerous knee surgeries robbed fans of what was sure to be many more years of fantastic play. For those that didn't get to see his greatness first hand there is luckily lots of video.
There is a debate, lead by folks that don't know any better, about who was better: Wayne Gretzky or Bobby Orr. True hockey fans know that Bobby Orr could stop Gretzky from scoring, but there's no way on his best day that that Gretzky could stop Orr.
No one could.
Happy belated birthday Bobby...and here's to many more.

Seriously, can we just get some legislation that lets us shoot those freaking Gretzky people on sight already? ENOUGH you people.
