Phelps is an athlete, but I'm wondering how many gold medeal Usain Bolt would have if the Olympics had a 100m dash, 100m running sideways dash, 100m running backwards dash, a 100m running on one leg dash, and a 100m hop, skip, and jump dash.

In defense of Tiger since he's a golfer, I think you have to consider his reach and influence. Before Tiger, golf was a thing middle-aged out of shape Dads would put on to fall asleep to. Tiger single handedly convinced people who had never seen or played golf to watch it over any of the major sports. He was convincing kids, who would probably be playing Baseball or Basketball, to instead pick up a golf club because Tiger made it cool. The next generation of golfers were more trim and in-shape because that's how Tiger trained. He single handedly transformed the game in every imaginable way. That has to count for something, I think.

I thought the first name on the list was Michael Jordan as first. I'm so used to him being at the top of all these lists.
And where is Pete ****ing Weber? |

With the Olympics coming up it’s really sad there aren’t more olympians on the list (besides pro athletes like basketball). If this were the late 20th century the list would have tons of them.

Who overrates Jeter? He might be overexposed, but I think most baseball fans/experts see him as a top 10 shortstop, which is a rightful place for him. He does have 3,465 hits.
