ESPN is finding a way to kill some down time in a "slow" programming part of the year for the Network by creating a Top-20 List of the Best Athletes over the last 20 years! I especially hate lists because they're a lazy way of creating content... but they do create some interesting debates. Anyways, back to ESPN being out of their mind. No Michael Phelps.. the MOST DECORATED US OLYMPIAN EVER! Brady is 17 spots below Peyton!? More mayhem and head scratchers in the full list below...
1-Tiger Woods
2-LeBron James
3-Peyton Manning
4-Jimmie Johnson
5-Roger Federer
6-Annika Sorenstam
7-Michael Shumacher
8-Floyd Mayweather
9-Marta
10-Usain Bolt
11-Lionel Messi
12-Serena Williams
13-Lauren Jackson
14-Cristiano Ronaldo
15-Novak Djokovic
16-Allyson Felix
17-Barry Bonds
18-Mike Trout
19-Manny Pacquiao

On the bright side, they already created an article defending their ridiculous decisions...
