Then

will any athlete ever crack the top 3?


Should be changed to

quote:

will any sports superstar ever crack the top 3? ( jordan, ruth and ali)


quote:

None of this has to do with being an "athlete," as the original question states. All of it is about being a sports media figure, of which they all were stellar at, no question.

And this:

worshiping of sports heroes.

Has been extremely detrimental to sports and youth in general.
