I thought I would start a new topic about the greatest players in all of professional sports. Which ones could of played anytime, or anywhere? And I don't mean after they work-out and get these "supplements", but straight out of their era.

My short list:

Wilt Chamberlain
Ted Williams(who knows, he could be cloned and playing again in 20 years!)
The Quarterback for the Baltimore Colts...having a brain fart....revolutionized the forward pass....you know who I'm talking about!

I'm sure it would pain you to add Babe Ruth to the list - but he revolutionized the power game in baseball. And the only supplements he was on was raw meat and beer.

Johnny Unitas? He was great, but definatley not the greatest.

Vladdy Gore (uerro) in 04 will prove he's the most dominant player to ever play the game :-°

ARLO, didn't you read Rob Neyers column on how Victor Zambrano would make Ruth grab some pine? :-D

I'd say these 3 are the most dominate ever in their sport.

As far as football goes Jerry Rice was the most Dominate WR ever.

Nice to see Rugby get a mention but what Jonah Lomu has done in Rugby is not much more than what Johan Santana has done in baseball. Lomu wouldn't even make a Top 20 list in New Zealand Rugby, let alone World Rugby.
