The Shortlist »

  • Favorite Athletes

    LeBron James, Roger Federer, Rudy Gay, David Ortiz, Peyton Manning

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Boston Red Sox, UConn Basketball

  • Favorite Coaches

    Jim Calhoun

  • All Time Sports Moment

    Boston Red Sox 2004 World Series Championship, UConn Basketball 1999 and 2004 National Championships

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Syracuse vs. UConn: 2006 Big East Tournament. Gerry McNamara hit a 3-pointer to send the game into overtime, and Syracuse won. Although I'm a UConn fan, I've never been more exausted and emotionally drained at the end of a sporting event. ***** Author's note: Just realized I never updated this: 2009 Big East Tournament: UConn vs. Syracuse. All I can say is "6 Overtimes." I was more emotionally drained when this one finished than Dwight Gooden after taking a piss test

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Everybody says DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak. I'm no different

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Mays

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Unitas only because Abe Simpson (Homer's father on the Simpsons) once said of him "Johnny Unitas, now there's a haircut you can set your watch to."

  • Jordan or Russell?

    LeBron

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Maradona. "Hand of God," and crazy drug addiction. What's not to love

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Like Federer's game more, met Sampras personally. Very nice, humble guy

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Tiger I guess

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    I live in Connecticut, NASCAR has about as much relevance to me as synchronized swimming (no offense to you synchronized swimming fans out there)

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    I don't know what this is in reference too, but I used to have a huge crush on a girl with the last name Schumacher, so I guess that wins

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

    Big East

    Auburn is off a bye week but I don't see Alabama losing before the SEC Championship game.

    Can we step away from all the miniscule stats, and just appreciate Mauer for what he is, the most complete player in baseball!
