Athlete of the Decade: Who ya got?

Going on stats and accomplishments alone and not how they look, speak or how many cool commercials they are in...

Tim Duncan should be very high on these lists. Top five with Kobe, Roger, Tom and Tiger. Especially when you consider how worldwide basketball has become.

I did vomit when I typed Kobe, but they guy had a hell of a decade.

 

Robert Horry.

 

For Luckiest Athlete of the Decade or Right Spot at the Right Time Athlete? Sure.

 

After much thought considering each of the candidates, I'm going to go with Candance Parker, because she has a C Cup she is proud of but doesn't flaunt.

 

Brady - only because NFL is the biggest deal in the U.S.
Woods- most dominant
Kobe -
Phelps/Armstrong

 

My heart says Lance because I'm a cyclist and glued to the TV for 23 days each day in July.
My head tells me Tiger simply because of the wider appeal of golf.
I wouldn't begrudge Federer the honor because I am an educated sports fan but care little for tennis.
Unless it's a U.S. sports only award, no NFL player can match the accomplishments of the three mentioned above (and I'm the flag-waivingest mofo on this board probably).

 

Wow, great pull

 

Roger Federer reclaims year-end No. 1 ranking
CHRIS LEHOURITES,AP Sports Writer


LONDON (AP) — Roger Federer has reclaimed his spot at the top of the tennis world, securing the year-end No. 1 ranking for the fifth time.

The record 15-time Grand Slam champion is closing in on Pete Sampras' all-time mark of six.

 

If he's so good, he should have never lost it the first time .

 

Martin Brodeur ... and I'm not ducking.

 

What? No love for Mark Sanchez here?

 

To wit.
