Some of the posts on the first page are pretty damn funny given yesterday’s argument. People grow and mature in 3 years I've grown and learned This young buck on the 1st page was wrong Winning the SB is no fluke And Offensive Line > QB ** Edit - and it appears I didn't state anywhere 'The team could be a fluke and win the SB'. However I was wrong in stating you could be a QB and be a fluke. We all mature, grow and learn over the years - one of the many beauties of life

The people that serve up the half time chips and curry sauce in the Devil's Kitchen underneath the East Stand at The New Lawn.

The fella who runs Longlevens AFC in Gloucester... A few years ago I asked if dogs were welcome at a Longlevens Ladies - Forest Green Rovers Ladies game?
Yes, was the answer... He met me at the ground entrance, took us in to the clubhouse, gave complimentary dog treats to the good boys, a free bottle of lager to me, a club pin badge, and an I've visited Longlevens AFC groundhopper card... Just before half time, he came to me in the stand and invited us to half time tea and cakes with the match officials.
You can't get more important than friendly hospitality like that.

The tennis ball girl What about the ball boy/ball man? That episode is amazing. We are an inclusive lot here on the sports board. All ball-persons are the most important positions in sports. Without them, who would collect the ball after each point? How many rolled ankles would bedevil the world's best and brightest without these unsung heroes of competitive sports?

Has to be NFL QB. Just about every game rests in their hands. Sure, MLB pitcher is about as important but each of them will only play in about, 25-35 games in a season. I voted for NHL Goalie.
Maybe some of the hardcore hockey fanatics here can school me - when was the last time we saw an 'Average Joe' win the Stanley Cup?
We've seen the Nick Foles of the world win the Super Bowl.
My 2nd pick would be NBA PG......
3rd Pitcher - I mean - you could have an explosive offense bail out a team and win a big game like 9-8, no? (I get this same argument can be made against an NHL goalie to an extent - but in the NHL the goalie is expected to win that series)
4th - QB
What's that you say?

NFL QB is more important than all the others put together. Nick Foles and Jeff Hostetler were flukes. Unless you have the 85 Bears defense or the Ravens or Seahawks defenses you need the stud QB. Exactly.
This is my point.
You can be a 'fluke' and still win the Super Bowl.
Can the same be said about the Stanley Cup?
Hence IMO - a top of the line goalie is much more important than a top of the line QB.
Oh, ok.

It's gotta be QB or goalie. Was trying to think of positions in other sports but sports outside the US aren't as specialised. There are important positions. Half back in Rugby League for instance is one where an otherwise unremarkable team will reach the playoffs every year if they have sorted. But we also see teams contend for and win premierships without anything at that positions.
Catcher is a very under rated position imo but one who's impact is hard to quantify.

The fan is the most important. Because without him/her, there would be no professional sports. And college would be much less successful and prominent.

starting pitcher is the only position capable of winning a game single-handedly

27 Ks and a solo home run = 1-0

for a QB to equal that, he would have to play all 11 defensive positions in a shut out, and then score a touchdown without blockers

or a goalie would have to shut out a team by himself, and then also score a goal
