The Short List What Nathan thinks about sport's most pressing questions

Favorite Athletes

I don't have a favorite athlete. Sad, I know. But I love seeing excellence.
Favorite Sports Teams

Kansas City Chiefs, St. Louis Rams
Favorite Coaches

Herm Edwards. Horrible coach. Fantastic orator.
All Time Sports Moment

Getting plunked three times in little league game. Ya, I was horrible and too slow to get out of the way.
Most Memorable Game Attended

Growing up in a small town doesn't afford many opportunities for attendance at meaningful games.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

No baseball player will ever again average .400 in a season.
Ruth or Mays?

Ruth. When you can dominate at the dish and on the mound, I don't think it's close.
Unitas or Montana?

Montana. Does Unitas have a state named after him?
Jordan or Russell?

Jordan. You LeBron jock sniffers need to go watch some game film.
Gretzky or Orr?

Hockey? Is that still a professional sport?
Pele or Maradona?

Um, I guess Pele. I'm not in to Maddona's music.
Federer or Sampras?

Sampras. At their primes, it's not close.
Tiger or Nicklaus?

Tiger. Red shirts on Sundays. Anything more classic than that?
Petty or Earnhardt?

Neither participated in a sport so why are they on this questionaire?
Schumacher or Senna?

What?
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Big 12 all day, every day. And twice on Sundays.

If you're a fantasy football freak like I am, you're already gearing up for the season, running mock drafts like it's your job, and analyzing ADP's and potential stats in order to build the perfect team. This article might help, and your thoughts would be greatly appreciated whether it does or doesn't, lol. Check it out though:

I am the REAL TRUE OFFICIAL #1 seahawks writer but Andy Auger, always tags his articles as seahawks ones even when they arent even about them. So I am and have been the Seahawks #1 for 3 months. I will change it when Auger stays the #1 for more than 3 months.
