    Wrong. It's about the "greatest" athlete. Greatness is measured not only by accomplishments in they're sport, but the impact that athlete has had on society. Go to any corner of the earth and any person you run into who wasn't born in the past 5 years will know the name Micheal Jordan, Muhammid Ali, Tiger Woods, etc. etc. No shit they are not the most athletically skilled in all events across the board. But you know damn well that's not what he means by "greatest" athlete.

    So you are defining an athlete the greatest cause of how well they were marketed. Get real.

    Any Athlete who is at the top of their sport is marketed. It's how that athlete represents himself and the sport that attributes to greatness. Kobe Bryant is probably the NBA's top player right now, and he is marketed well. Yet the NBA's ratings are in the toilet when it comes to viewers. Why? Because basket ball isn't exciting and doesn't have that spark that it had back in the late 80's and 90's when Jordan had his reign. Kobe's a great player, but he's also an asshole......he doesn't carry that off court presence. Jordan was unbelievable to watch, he had a great personality, and he will go down as the best basketball player ever even if all his records are broken.
