    Jackie robinson is the most overated ball player of all time.

    in regards to the thread, id say Barack Obama, cuz the press wants to make u think this guy has some sort of athletic skills, even tho he throws like a 3 year old girl, cant shoot a jumper, can only dribble with his left hand and cant even ? bowl

    That guy is a ? joke, he gets 0 points for putting a $1000 bounty ($1K...really?) on Riley's head for someone else to check him, secondly he copped the whole "i got hacked" excuse after. 0 points. I'm waiting for a DB looking at you Richard Sherman....to lay that cracka the ? out...illegal hit or no.

    I'm sorry. I can't give Jack Johnson "political" props just for smashing cave bishes. He wasn't no hero for that, he was just a typical cave-bish loving, thirsty ass nikka that wanted some white trophy ? to go along with the rest of his "expensive" ? .

    KAREEM ABDUL-JABAR
    I can't down LeBron too much. He's the most political athletes of HIS day to speak up, which isn't saying much, but at least he says something....which is a shitload more than Mike, Kobe, Bonds, or any of these NFL dudes can do.

    I voted for Kareem, but I can't be mad Ali won the poll...dude turned down a ? war, and was stripped of his belt for standing up. You really can't top that.

    JACK JOHNSON
    Jack Johnson the GOAT behind Joe Louis. He was saying ? and doing ? no one even dared to do in the 1960s in the early 1900's.

    "I'm black... They never let me forget it..I'm black alright..I'll never let them forget it."

    "Ain't no Vietkong ever called me ? !"

    This dude spoke his mind throughout tha' turbulent '60's and damn near gave up everything for his beliefs...and he was tha' biggest thing going!! Much respect to Ali then...now and forever!! Peace

    MUHAMMAD ALI
    I've read the bio of Kareem and Paul Robeson, and seen Bill Russell's comments on race but really ain't noooooooooo athlete black or white coming close to Muhammad Ali's political stances and effect. Nobody. That was something never seen and probably won't be seen again.
