Haha I guess not an athlete in the normal sense. Sports figure? That a better word for them?

Ken Griffey Jr......would have been the best baseball player of all time if it wasn't for injuries.

Or Russell Westbrook.. Big fan

[zempey]

How can you not call a bb an athlete? What defines an athlete?

I would say Dan Marino would be high on my list. Mike Strange from my home town, an Olympic boxer who does amazing things for children with cancer. He is a true hero and an inspiration to be a better person. He founded the Box Run foundation, he ran west across Canada from where Terry Fox ended his run and battle with cancer. Then a couple years later ran from the east coast back to Niagara, 90 marathons in 90 days, which ended up being 94 in 94 days.

I WAS gonna say Michael Jordan but now I'm not ashamed to say it's her.

For the most part I'm just messing around and busting the balls of the bodybuilder. Bodybuilders so desperately want to call themselves athletes, even though they do not athletically do anything. Bodybuilding simply fulfills a competitive drive that is in some ways similar to a drive and high that a day-trader might experience. I don't think anyone would call a day-trader an athlete. Competition doesn't make the pursuit athletic, what's done in the competition makes it athletic.

Anyway, to the point of the thread, my favorites:

John Elway
Bo Jackson
Derek Jeter
Nolan Ryan
Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, named together purposely because of the matchup.
