Special
Ex - The Beginnings
The '27
Yankees. The'85 Bears. the 2004 Cuban Special Ex Olympic team.
Few competitors
ever truly live up to the term "Dynasty." Consistent and total
domination of the opponent, record breaking individual achievement,
product endorsements: these are just a few of the ingredients
it takes to make a true, undeniable dynasty.
Many great franchises
are born inconspicuously enough. For instance, in 1989 the Dallas
Cowboys traded Herschel Walker to the almighty Minnesota Vikings
for 5 players, cash incentives, and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round
picks in the next three years. Sounds like a pretty fair deal,
huh? Well, as it turns out the Cowboys used those picks to draft
and trade themselves into position to acquire a few guys of
their own. You may have heard of the following: Emmett Smith,
Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, Charles Haley, Russell Maryland,
Darren Woodson, Deion Sanders.
Okay, so
that's the easy way. For those of us who can't find a GM as mind-bogglingly
stupid as Mike Lynn, or, say Kevin McHale we are at the unmerciful
whim of the universe. And, how rarely do the stars allign themselves
in such a perfect storm as to give us a team of such terrifying
dominance;
Well the
Beer Gods have smiled. They have smiled an extra big smile. Never
before has a group of beer drinkers of this caliber been assembled.
Not even the All-Star team of '95 could compare to this multiple
attack offensive that is team ex.
