Okay, why not start an interesting little thread here for those who are bored just a bit from football downtime...

YOU MUST pick only one for the following categories if you want to participate! I know this is challenging but it is for fun, not profit! And I know there are different positions, but just pick the person you think is BEST, period. We're talking pros here.

As you see it, who is the best in the following:

Football:

Baseball:

Basketball (Women):

Basketball (Men):

Tennis (Women):

Tennis (Men):

Golf (Women):

Golf (Men):

Hockey:

NASCAR:

Feel free to add a sport if you wish. You must think, though, he is DA MAN or she is DA WOMAN in the sport. Go for it!!!!!!!

You can't put Maradona on there as the best especially after FIFA banned him for over a year for taking an illegal substance at the 94 World Cup.

Good point... How about Pele?

zizou · 02-21-2005, 05:53 PM

Pele would certainly be the favorite pick and a good one. I might even put Zidane up there as possibly the best ever, especially at attacking mid.
