Yeah but no one beats Wilt the Stilt. The man, in my opinion, is the greatest professional athlete of all time. He could do just about anything in any sport.

Kinda hard to argue against Wilt.

good list really.

Although Secretariat as a #2 doesn't make sense....he wore the number of which hole he was coming out of and assigned in the betting program...so he could be #3, #14, #7..etc...

 

[Section126]

Dwight Stephenson made it....

can you think of any other 57 that was any good?

(Other than the ones they mentioned)
