ESPN Top 100 Athletes This Century

[CASPERWAIT$]

Absolutely AWFUL rankings.

Brady #5 behind Lebron, Messi, Serena Williams and Phelps?

Just fuck that.

WAY too many WNBA players on this list. Also WAY too many race car drivers.

Complete DEI list.
Absolute joke

sounds good to me

Gave it a quick look and for me Jeter as far down as that surprises me! I know some seasons played in the 90's but still. I never tune into ESPN except when games are shown. It's been over for me like SNL years ago.

Karch Karily #1 imo

I will just say this, Zinedine Zidane is the greatest soccer player I ever saw play, his ball control was magical, when he was on the pitch commanding the offense the whole team went through him, it was like an orchestra conductor with the little stick controlling the rhythm and attack, definitely should be top 10

I think another Jeter deal where he played seasons in the late 90's reason why he is not higher.

None of these Olympic people should be there

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

Agreed

None of these Olympic people should be there

 

[Archie]

None of these Olympic people should be there

for sure they should. their sports still exist in non Olympic years. it's just less publicized.

I skimmed the list and thought a bunch of them should probably be higher. From memory:

Clayton Kershaw
Manny Pacquiao
Bernard Hopkins
GSP
Zinedine Zidane

I don't have a problem with racing drivers being on there. Lewis is maybe the greatest of all time along with Schumacher. F1 is crazy demanding physically.
