A goat is the main character of BILL-POSTERS . . .

. . . and we're not talking "Greatest Of All Time." Regular goats will eat hay, grasses, weeds, grain and sometimes even tree bark--but NEVER tin cans, as these Dizzy nature films continually insist upon depicting. However, an American G. O. A. T.--whether named Ryun, Blair, Biles, Brady or Shiffrin, MIGHT eat a tin can, even though they specialize in eating crow. All five of these over-rated has-been's specialized in snatching total defeat from the jaws of triumph at the pinnacle of their supposedly invincible careers, just like "Casey at the Bat." These five bozos may have had the best publicity flacks, but disaster always results when you play down to the level of your PR department. Many if not most nations would not tolerate getting such egg of their face, and would find some pretext to erase such a sorry quintet from their sports annals. No actual G. O. A. T. has a grand finale as a loser on the World's Biggest Stage, whether it's the Olympics or the Super Bowl.
