What are your thoughts?

There is no possible way that Tiger is anything but number 1. I'm sorry but there isn't. Federer is probably number 2. Beltran is on that list yet I'm not sure why. Before the last 3 months of last season he was being called a bust. Vince Young and Michael Vick are obscenely high.

Now I'm thinking, is this the top 35 stars or just best athletes?

best damn sports show is heavily biased to SO CAL and SOCALS stars!

this list is evidence of that

amat wadda 'ya think about Vick.

Wasted talent? Overhyped? Bad luck?

What is it? and I agree he, Young and Bush are waaay to high on there.

And I like Federer but being as Nadal keeps kicking his ass it's somewhat dropped his stock.

and this list is BEST ATHLETES.

I actually like Vick. I think his shortcomings have been talked about entirely to much, so he doesn't crack the top passing numbers, he wasn't drafted as a passer. Don't really think he's a wasted talent, he hasn't had a complete team around him in a long time. I think he could really go far. Defenses constantly adjust to him, you saw Tampa Bay hold their ends back for a while against him and then at the beginning of last year he had that awesome option run play that he created working real good for them. I don't know, it's hard to rate him against expectations. He was expected to be an explosive player, and someone who will always make for a fun watch. I think he's got that.

But he's not the third best football player in the game. And Reggie isn't second.

As for Federer and Nadal, you're right. But 70 straight sets in a major without losing is RIDICULOUS.

I think Vince Young is much better than Vick.

If its gonna be athletes and a matter of how good you are at your sport and the people getting credit for bieng in crazy shape then Floyd should be higher..

I suppose he only gets around 20 because of how little boxing is taken notice of compared to the rest of the major sports

Fedor Emelianenko should be in there considering he is probably one of the toughest men in the world right now, I dont really understand the definition they are using for athlete though.

Honestly, I can see a basketball, baseball, soccer or football player being ranked higher than Mayweather.  They have to run around, jump, leap, dive, tackle, etc.

Just my opinion of course

When someone asks, "who is your favorite athlete?" I never think boxing.

Agreed....VY doesn't try to do it all himself

Vick is a lousy bastard

and number 30 is waaaaaaaaaaaaay over hyped. i never liked him from the start of his career! >:mad

whats the premise for this....I mean is it just athleticism(speed, strength, agility, coordination, stamina, power etc) or is it dominance in their respective sport? If its dominance then its hard to compare guys like Tiger and Federer to athletes in team sports. Julius Peppers is one of the greatest athletes I've ever seen as far as size and attributes but he isn't in the breath as Tiger.

WTF,only one football(soccer) player? Federer is number 1 for me. ONce he gets the French(IT WILL HAPPEN ONE DAY),he will go on to become one of the greatest sportsmen in history. Kobe Bryant isnt THAT good is he? I knows he broken some records and stuff but does he play well on a consistent basis?

And Serena Williams??!"?!? WTF?!?! Henin is better but none of the women are totally amazing imo.

They should have a most feared sportsmen list,we alllll know who would be top :D ;)

Kobe is one of the greatest NBA players ever...I don't even like the guy, but he can pretty much decide how much he is going to score with in reason
