[Endless Obsession]

[(*The Noonward Race*)]

[Wish]

Michael Johnson.

[Benzum]

Tiger Woods isn't an athlete
Jack Nichlaus isn't an athlete

[(*The Noonward Race*)]

[Endless Obsession]

Tiger Woods isn't an athlete
Jack Nichlaus isn't an athlete

Tiger and Jack are atheletes. My grandma that plays golf every other weekend, shes not an athlete.

[Benzum]

Whoever competes in the Triathlon

Tiger and Jack are atheletes. My grandma that plays golf every other weekend, shes not an athlete.

So anybody that walks long distances, is an athlete?
Ok fair enough :)

[Wish]

Regardless if he's an athlete or not, it's Jack Nicklaus.

What kind of a poll is this?

[(*The Noonward Race*)]

but tiger had to ****ing learn the techniques and skills of golf better than anyone who has played


of course that doeesnt take time or more effort than walking long distance yuo doltoid fagtron

[Benzum]

No, Tiger didn't spend much time "learning" to play Golf, he's just a natural, unlike Jack Nicklaus...

[Minus The Flair]

Some guy named Ali maybe

[(*The Noonward Race*)]

no he did spend hundreds of hours

[Endless Obsession]

No, Tiger didn't spend much time "learning" to play Golf, he's just a natural, unlike Jack Nicklaus...

You are so wrong buddy. Tiger has been playing golf since he was big enough to swing a club. He practices just as much if not more than everyone else. He has natural ability, but he has also dedicated his life to becoming the greatest golfer of all time, and is well on his way.

I know, I read his book, or one of them...
Being naturally talented is different from having to learn from scratch :)

[Electronic Wolf]

This is the most ****ed up poll, ever. You have missed out key sports (cricket, F1 etc.).

[g°®†]

Jimi Hendrix

[MattyBlade]

This is the most ****ed up poll, ever. You have missed out gay sports (cricket, badminton etc.).

I had to edit this post a little bit because f1 is pretty cool.

[here comes the bird flu]

Gretzky because I love hockey

[Samuel]

My post from the same thread in Sports:
I'll say Roy Jones Jr., and Sugar Ray Robinson. Jones is 50-4-0, with titles in four classes. Robinson has fought a whopping 202 professional bouts, at 175-19-6, 2 NCs, with 108 KO wins.

[JohnXDoe]

Muhammad Ali is hands down the greatest athlete ever.

[Te Karanga]

Omg kill this thread please mods.

I'm sorry, but there are other continents out there other than North America, and I'm sorry, but this isn't the place to put sporting threads.

Go shove your head into a toilet threadstarter, and then book a plane ticket out of America. Perhaps someday you'll discover men such as Schumacher, Warne, Bradman, Pele, Aryton Senna etc

[JohnXDoe]

lol

[nutty_bar]

MJ, no question.

Everyone knows Cricket and Soccer are pussy sports. What are you, a communist or something?

[Untitled]

As an F1 fan, i have to say Micheal Shucimacher, as much as i hate to do so.

Go make a thread about it

Who cares if your not on there, don't post in this thread if it bugs you so much.

Alright, lets go for Rugby then. Unless you don't want to because American sucks sh*t at it?


Jonah Lomu, Christian Cullen (until the knee problems), Tana Umaga, Gavin Hastings, David Campese, Colin Meads etc etc

Go make a thread about it

There is a thread on this subject in the sporting forum, and with a hell of a lot less retarded American bias.

And that last comment is stupid. This thread bugs me so much, so I'm trying to show how retarded it is to others.

[JohnXDoe]

the world is as flat as my grandma's *** and i'm the greatest thing on it :)

athlete or not...

Jake LaMotta

no wait, Shaq

Of course America sucks at it. It's just watered down football for people with cauliflower ears. What blue blooded American wants to do that?

[Up The Irons]

Barry Bonds fo sho

[Soul_Under_Arrest]

Zinedine Zidane. I love him.

123, greatest moment in sports history. Butt it like Zidane :thumb:

Thid thread is way to highly a subjective subject. All it is going to create is nothing but an opinionated flam-fest.

Lance Armstrong FTW!

P.S. Golf is harder then you thing twat.

[Elmo McCheese]

Muhammad Ali was the greatest athelete ever. Have you ever gotten punched in the face? This guy did it for a living.

[Surgicalgod]

The people mentioned in the poll would never be qualified for a "Greatest Athlete Ever" award.

Zinedine Zidane ftw!!

[Samuel]

What about the man that Ali always said was the best boxer ever? Roy Jones Jr. baby.

[Samuel]

Seriously. Did Zidane have nut cancer? I think not.

There are so many deserving candidates missing it's not even funny.

Mario Lemieux had throat cancer and chronic back problems and was still one of the best players in the NHL.

My posts make a lot less sense now that this is actually in the serious Sports forum.

[YDload]

Jim Thorpe

he won damn near everything he competed in, including an Olympic decathalon. sounds like a pretty complete athlete to me!

or alternately...

Jim Brown

not only one of the greatest football players ever, but he actually went to college on a lacrosse scholarship. so he's really good at two sports. not merely Bo Jackson good, but phenomenal at both of them.

[Kerplaps Roast]

Lance Armstrong is a doper

[RandyfromPennywise]

What a biased poll.

[Cordova.]

ricky carmichael...the man has won 10 outdoor motocross championships with three different brands...any other athletes win their respective championships ten times with three different teams?? and if you dont think ridin motocross is a sport watch some videos or something...its the most physically demandin sport on the planet. peroid.

[ZaaR]

wayne gretzky.

[Red Stripe]

Lance Armstrong, like I said in that other thread, he won the most grueling event in sports 7 times, after recovering from cancer, he cheated death, and came back to win 7 Tour De France.

If someone dominates in a sport that no one cares about, does it really matter?

[tom79]

Wayne Gretzky

[[Nightbreak]]

Deion Sanders. Baseball player and top Defensive Back. Played both professionally concurrently.

[dirtypirate337]

Lance Armstrong never ceases (ceased) to amaze me.

[knox]

Lance Armstrong has always been my favorite athlete.

[Red Stripe]

He actually made people care about the sport. Now no one cares. And before him, no one cared.

[Illmatic]

Exactly, no one cared about the sport, they only cared if he won. If he made people interested in the sport, then people would care after he left.
