    Once again, no Michael Phelps!??

    Possibly the best performance by an athlete in any sport, ever, and he gets overlooked twice?

    Shame...

    What's wrong with the other poll?

    I'm going to close one of them, as they're both basically the same.

    I know he never went to the Pirates. If Huntington did that he would be in debt for many, many years

    Well, for me it's a tough call between the Rays and Brady's injury. In the end, I went with the Brady injury, since I think it created the idea for a LOT of teams around the league that "Hey, we have a chance."

    Actually, the biggest rise in hardcore fighting would have been a year or 2 ago. It has CONTINUED to rise since then, but that's when it started moving up.

    What A.B. was aware of two years ago, Rongar has just noticed
