You should really specify this is pre-2000, it's ESPN's 50 Greatest Athletes of the 20th Century, obviously people such as Lance Armstrong, Tiger Woods, Roger Federer, Michael Phelps, etc. would be on this list if it were 1910-2010.

Or anyone from baseball and not Cy Young? I mean, seriously. Do these people really know anything about sports?
