Mac, you are pathetic. Tinpot poll and you have a petted bottom lip just like your hero.
Don't you know that the top two go through?

Mac i would boycott that poll, its clear these people dont understand the genius of Tiger. He was being out-voted by an ice hockey player yesterday.

Gretsky is the undisputed GOAT of his sport, whilst Nine Chins is just an indisputable tw@t with a stupid name. No contest.

I don't mind Gretzky winning that one to be honest. At least he truly is a modern great. The Johnson thing was a bit ridiculous - he's even beating Jack Nicklaus in a group today!

It's just a popularity contest, Woods would have breezed that group in 2009. He revolutionized a mainstream sport like few others have.

Give us a bit of credit. In other words, we'll vote for whom we think is the best of that group. For me, it's Gretsky. Sorry.

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
looks like nicklaus has pulled it back...
personally i think it would be good for the competition if a modern great actually won. judging by the voting patterns so far, it looks unlikely to be anyone outside pele or ali. federer has probably the best shout of the current bunch, but it would be nice to see Gretzky take the title and blow the cobwebs off all the rose tinted glasses out there who cant see past the names pele and ali.

no he used to play hurling for kilkenny, and would also be considered the GOAT of his sport.super_realist wrote:incontinentia wrote:So super i suppose DJ Carey is greater than Tiger aswell? Get a grip

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
Well then he's more of a GOAT than 9 Chins then, who certainly isn't THE goat of his sport.
Honestly, if someone has to plead with people for votes then they can't be that great in the first place.

Well Hurling is a minority sport played only by a few hundred bombslingers, but if we are talking GOAT by strict definition, then this person is more of a GOAT than Woods.
Anyway Hurling is hardly comparable with Gretsky in a sport like Ice Hockey.

Hurling is one of the most complete sports there is requiring high levels of skill and athleticism

So what's your point then? The guy you mention is therefore more of a GOAT than Baldy 9 Chins?

I was responding to :
Woods is far greater than either Gretzky or DJ Carey is my ultimate point.

IN what regard? THe question is to find the GOAT, Baldy isn't even the greatest in his sport, the other two are.

I would have thought someone with your superior level of intellect would have picked up on the fact the post was made in humor, based on the self awareness that I have the image of being a tiger fan boy.

Wow... so the greatest ping pong player ever is also greater than Woods? Come to your senses man.

More people play ping pong than play golf. So if you are the Ping pong GOAT you're better than Baldy who isn't even the Golf GOAT.

Mac, what is it you like about this idiot?
Ive always been clear about the reasons i cant stand him but youve never explaned your unflinching adoration.
He doesnt play golf nicely and hes not an engaging person so why the worship?

2 golfers in the last 8 (9?) is pretty impressive considering

Pretty disgusting in reality and an indictment that the British public consider Golf and Cricket to be "sports" suitable enough in which to draw an overall sporting GOAT from.
Shame on all of you who have voted for these pasttimes.

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
i expected nicklaus to make the last 8 by default. b9c just snuck in. the last 8 is as far as both will go, but about right i'd say given the competition. for all golf's loss of yardage in the athletic terms it more than makes up with technical skill and mental fortitude to be up there with the great sports in my opinion.

I would expect the Golfers to get knocked out this round and Bradman the next.

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
looks like federer, pele, ali and bradman for the semis. bradman will fall short of a place in the final for sure, but federer could be a dark horse.

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
Think that would be a fair last four. Are they going head to head or a group of four?

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
think its head-to-head semis then final - i can't see where the proposal has gone but pretty sure mttc was keen to have a head-to-head final. a lot will count on the draw. presumably group toppers will play opposite group runnersup. could be a bit of stooshy from the rose-tinted brigad if ali draws pele in the semis. personally i think federer would have a good chance against either. he would be my choice, even though he's annoyingly smug.

Blimin eck - Woods is not far away from taking down the King of the Cucumber himself - Bradman - and making the last 4...

Re: Please vote for Tiger (again)
Nicklaus has an arguably tougher draw against Federer and Ali. Woods is up against Pele and Bradman. Bradman looks like he'll progress, but will get thwumped by whoever he faces in the Semi's - as would Woods.
