I don't really have one favorite sports person. There are a lot of baseball players that I have liked over the years, a few football players, and quite a few basketball players. I really like the older basketball players, such as Dr. J, Bill Russell, Walt Clyde Frasier, and Wilt Chamberlain just to name a few, that changed the way that the game was previously played and paved the road for the way the game is now played - with flair and excitement not to mention a little showboating. I also really liked Michael Jordan, but I liked him a lot better when he was with the Wizards rather than the Bulls. Don't get me wrong, when he was with the Bulls he was amazing and almost untouchable without really having to work at it. Everybody was wowed by him and rightly so. However, when he made his third comeback with the Wizards, he was older, slower, and many said he was "washed up". I loved watching him play then, because you still could not underestimate his talent. He might not have been as fast as he once was, but he still had all the skills combined with a lot more experience and wisdom. He was not as fast, but he was still dangerous, especially in the three point range. At forty years old, not only was he still being double and triple teamed by players half his age to try to keep him from scoring, but he also landed in the list of the top fifty point scorers in the NBA with a respectable placement of number 25 on the list.
