All that said, I should even bother (though not for the reasons you're thinking, I'm sure). In my view many of the "athletes" on the list aren't even playing sports as I define it. I care as much about who utterly dominates figure skating or golf as i do darts, pool, or poker.

Yeah, I'll be honest. I only recognized 6 names on that list. And, name recognition didn't sink in until I was 13 names in.

I get what ESPN is doing, but that doesn't make the list any less of a joke.

Then you have such an insanely narrow view of sport as to not really be relevant to this discussion. I mean, I rarely watch figure skating even during the Olympics, but of course it's a sport. How in god's name do you "define" sports, then? |

I like Simone Biles, but there's no way she converts that 4th and 9.

James Harden was probably the worst player on the court in his only Finals appearance.
Until the Warriors fall apart, he will never get passed them in the playoffs. Last year was his best chance. Get him off this list. |

The inclusion of Harden, Brees, and Betts was offensive. I'm fine with women being on the list though.
Edit: On the list there are 13 men, 6 women, and 1 horse. Why are people freaking about it ? Men still dominated the list. Was it just that a woman got first place? I don't get it. 2 out of the top 3 are still men. Last edited by Sannyasi; 12-11-2018 at 09:41 PM.. |

Talking about Harden and some others that have choked in the playoffs, what if Mahomes is one of those athletes that actually does markedly better come playoff time? I always think about him playing just as well, but what if he actually unleashes the fury of hell in the post season?! At this point, I’m not even sure what that would look like, but could you imagine?
