Best all around athlete...anyone who win's the Olympic, World Games, NCCA, etc Decathlon event. Other than that, it's the best performer in a chosen sport or more than one sport. Which can lead to dozens of examples.Three sports.....Jim Brown or Bo Jackson as example. One sport, Dr J ahead of Jordon. Never be one answer as to who was/is the greatest athlete ever.

I always have liked the Jordan 5's, Jordan 6's, and Jordan 7's myself...Which are the best

Agreed, 5,6,7 and 9 are the best by far.

Jordan missed a few prime years to "live the dream" with the white sox as well.
              that's my point jordan tried and failed to play his first love basrball. remember the hardest thing in sports to hit a round ball with a round bat squarely, esp when said ball is thrown 60 to 107 miles per hour from varying angles and speeds and different english on said ball. jim thorpe was a track athlete, played mlb baseball, also pro football he excelled at everything. ruth the fat bastard excelled at pitching and hitting all while under the influence of booze and hotdogs by the dozens. all ruth did was hit more homeruns in some years than the combined totals of whole teams, amazing isn't it.

Wow. I guess everyone in the last 3 pages of this thread really got off topic. Baseball players don't count since Baseball is not even a sport. It's a pastime. lol. Most of them are fatasses anyways.

carl louis is third place behind maradona which is behind jordan
  <---- Retarded post alert.

Spell the athlete's name correctly at least. lol
Maradonna is a fat drug addict, Lewis was the most successful Track and Field Athlete ever. Jordan was a great Basketball player. This doesn't make him the best Athlete ever.


esp guys like sabathia and j chamberlain
fat f---s all
