The Shortlist »

Favorite Athletes

Ryne Sandberg, Michael Jordan, Jeremy Roenick, Ed Belfour, Patrick Sharp, Patrick Kane, Aramis Ramirez, Mark DeRosa, Chris Paul, Steve Nash, LeBron James, Larry Fitzgerald, Big Ben, Chase Utley, Josh Hamilton
Favorite Sports Teams

The Cubs and Blackhawks are my 1 and 1a favorite teams. I also closely follow all other Chicago teams, and all Phoenix teams as well.
Favorite Coaches

Phil Jackson, Lou Piniella, Jim Riggleman, Bruce Weber, Ron Gardenhire, Doc Rivers
All Time Sports Moment

All 6 of the Bulls championships, and the Cubs winning the NLDS in 2003.
Most Memorable Game Attended

Illinois beating Wisconsin in the 2007 season at Memorial Stadium
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Joe Dimaggio's 56 game hitting streak, and Bill Moisenko's 21 second hat trick
Ruth or Mays?

Willie Mays hands down, because he was a better all around player
Unitas or Montana?

John Elway
Jordan or Russell?

Jordan
Gretzky or Orr?

Orr
Pele or Maradona?

Pele
Federer or Sampras?

Rod Laver anyone? How about Andre Agassi?
Tiger or Nicklaus?

Ben Hogan (I love your clubs, by the way)
Petty or Earnhardt?

Don't watch NASCAR often enough to warrant giving either side ammunition to use against me in a titantic struggle of wills.
Schumacher or Senna?

Unfortunately, Formula One has very little traction in America, and I've never watched an entire race.
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

This can't be who's the best, because they all have strengths and weaknesses, so I"m going with the Big 10 since I love Illinois so much.

It's a little late but I thought I'd add my two cents regarding Joe Sakic's retirement. Please feel free to take a gander when you get a spare moment. Thanks.

Hey Jim,

Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

Thanks in advance!

I know that you don't really frequent the wrestling section, but would you be kind enough to check out my analysis of the Undertaker/Shawn Michaels match?

Hey Jim,

Decided to have some fun with this. It's a humor piece about Survivor for athletes. I had a blast writing it, and I hope you get a good laugh out of it :)

If you get the time, I'd love to hear what you think. If not, no worries.

Hey Jim,

I think the best part of sports is the passion involved, so I wrote an opinionated piece on why I think a perfect athlete is capable of crying, both win or lose. I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think. If you’re too busy, no worries.

Thanks, as always, for the support! It’s much appreciated ☺
