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

Favorite Athletes

Sandy Koufax, Ken Griffey Jr., Kobe Bryant, Kosuke Fukudome, Justin Verlander, Willie Mays, Anderson, Tom Brady, Greg Maddux, George Best
Favorite Sports Teams

Chicago Cubs, Manchester United, Detroit Tigers, Grand Valley Lakers
All Time Sports Moment

Magglio's walk-off that put the Tigers in the World Series in 2006. Never thought I'd see the day.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

DiMaggio's 56 games. Cy Young's Wins. Nolan Ryan's Strikeouts. 1972 Dolphins - If the Pats couldn't do it, no one can.
Ruth or Mays?

No baseball player will ever be better than Babe Ruth, but Willie Mays is one of my favorites. But if I'm drafting? No way I'm passing on Ruth.
Unitas or Montana?

Montana.
Jordan or Russell?

This is a good one. I feel like if I chose Russell like I want to, MJ would just come back and kill my team every time we played him.
Gretzky or Orr?

Gretzky. C'mon.
Pele or Maradona?

Maradona good, Pele better, George Best.
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

I love watching Pac 10 football, and I hate the arrogance of the SEC. I hate even more that everyone buys into it.
