Jackie Robinson? Shouldn't be there.
Barrier breaking does not an athlete make. I can think of 100 greater athletes without spending much time in thought. And no, bicycle boy doesn't make the list.
I agree JR shouldn't be there and I don't feel 80% of other names belong in the conversation. It's terribly subjective when it comes to who is the better athlete and this is really nothing more than a popularity/name recognition/athletic accomplishment contest.
I agree with GH about if it comes down to it, my list has Jim Thorpe vs. Bo. But since it really comes down to the aforementioned in reality (despite the name of the contest), I bet JR makes it close on his accomplishment and name recognition.
Where did you move to Alabama from?
Native Alabamian, Native-American in my blood. Generations of long schlonged men in my family. I don't like to brag about my huge dick, it just came up in the conversation.
