greatest ATHLETE of all time...
 

Yeah...you heard me. There's so many...but I broke it down to a list of 15 and an other option.

I have a feeling this is going to remind me of the Greatest American Athlete thread. I can already tell you that the majority will probably say Ali.

#1 of all time is Michael Jordan. I don't even need to explain why. Best ever.

Maybe their minds will change. Only time will tell, right?

Jim Thorpe

Please take Tiger Woods and Jack N. off the list. Golfers aren't athletes.

Achilles son of Peleus

or

Cassius Clay AKA Muhammand Ali

i had a difficult time between Muhammed Ali and Jim Brown. But Brown was a great multisport athlete prior to his NFL career so I had to go with him.

Tiger is definitely an athlete. Weight trained, superb runner, have you actually ever read about him. Now if you want to argue Golf is not an athletic sport that is a different issue.

Thanks for the input but nah, I'm leaving them on the list. Although I don't think either compare to many of the others on the list, someone may disagree ..sooooo. so be it... :)

I'm not seeing the obligatory Gaz option.

I'm surprised Mark Spits or Pavel Nerme isn't apart of this list either

If u wish... use Gaz as ur OTHER.

there is also Carl Lewis, Lance Armstrong, Alexander Korelin

Lance Armstrong is on the List.
