[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1017180, member: 73592"] Personally, I like to short-list things by GOAT candidates by sport (that I'm familiar enough with to venture an opinion) Rugby: Gareth Edwards the most talented, Lomu the most influential (honourable mentions for Carter, Porta and Alfonso - as this is a rugby forum) Tennis: Federer the most talented; Nadal and Serena the best athletes who played tennis. Sprinting: Bolt the most talented, Owens the most influential Running: Zatopek or Semenya Gymnastics: Comaneci or Biles Motorsport: Senna (winning with inferior machinery) Cricket: Warne or Ponting Multi-sport: Jim Thorpe or Carl Lewis American sports: Gretzky > Jordan Cheeky add for my favourite WTF trivia: Fanny Blankers-Koen (google her!) Beyond that, and I'm out of my comfort zone (TBH, I'm out of it with the American sports category already) [/QUOTE]
