That topic about best gamer of all time got me thinking about athletes.
Jim Thorpe
Michael Jordan
Pele
As many other great athletes as there are, I can't think of any arguments against any of these three guys. Each one dominated their own era in their own way, with the only exception being that Jordan kinda sucked at baseball...but made up for it by being complete god-mode in basketball.
And yes I know, this doesn't include the last 10 years...but let's face it, we'll need a few years of perspective before trying to consider guys like Peyton Manning, Lionel Messi, etc.
