SportsCenter posted the below tweet and gave the title of World's Greatest Athlete to Ashton Eaton after winning another gold in the decathlon. Maybe this is just a cliche title that goes along with winning the decathlon (I'm not a track guy) but it got me thinking. There are so many different types of "athletes" and so many GOATS (that's what the kids say these days, right?).
I'm interested to hear who you think is the worlds greatest athlete of all time? Bo Jackson? Michael Jordan? Wayne Gretzsky?
