What’s everyone’s take on who might actually catch up to Tiger Woods in terms of Major titles and eventually challenge Michael Jordan for the GOAT title?
Spieth started out at an incredible pace, but he’s really slid back into mediocrity over the last two seasons...
Some people think that once Rory McIlroy finally moves past his recent struggles, he'll be dangerous again, but honestly, I see him as a total flop too.

In a sport where maintaining dominance and winning big tournaments is arguably this difficult, I just don't see anyone providing that kind of sustained era of supremacy anytime soon.

Tiger Woods, what’s the word from the man himself?

So, apparently some "scientists" are out here claiming that riding bikes isn't exactly the best move for guys. They’re suggesting we should probably stop messing around with all that repetitive motion as we get older. I guess they think if you keep at it, you might end up with some issues down there eventually. Maybe.

Since we’ve already started the flood of polls... which historical leader would you consider the GOAT? Who do you respect the most? 🤔

Personally, I find myself leaning toward Alexander II. 😉

I was chatting with a guy who’s followed everyone from Bobby Jones to Jack Nicklaus, then Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. He told me straight up: Tiger is the greatest. 🤷

Noah Roberts46 said:Sure, his field goal percentage was under 40%, but the Lakers fans are definitely exaggerating that one. ☕

I honestly don't get how Stephen Curry didn't take it home.

With an FG percentage under 40% and, like Paul Pierce mentioned earlier, having Juan Dallavedova as the second-best player...

He basically carried that ragtag group to a 2-1 lead. And man, that one loss went to overtime because—I think it was just yesterday I saw this—Josh Shumpert couldn't sink a layup from two feet out right at the end of regulation in game one. 🙏 🙏

The guy probably led in pretty much every statistical category out there. Seriously, give me any player in history—even a 21-year-old Jordan—and they wouldn't be able to take those two games off the Golden State Warriors with that Cleveland Cavaliers squad.

Elizabeth Mendoza said:Personally, I can't stand that sport, but I had no clue about this part. 🙏

All those cyclists look gross to me. They're all sunburnt like roasted chickens, squeezed into those tight latex outfits, wearing those ridiculous little helmets. They're skin and bones. A few years back, I saw some nasty photos online of a cyclist's muscles after a race—I am definitely not Googling that again unless I want to gag.

And if I remember correctly, most of them end up with testicular cancer or at least have a significantly higher risk for it.

Sports are absolutely brilliant once you finally grasp how everything works—it’s such a rush!—but you really need to commit to at least one full season and spend a good amount of time digging through info online before it all starts making sense. It isn't like if you suddenly decided to start watching volleyball; you can't just tune into a single match and expect to understand enough to follow the whole game, right?

Every time I spot that crew out on their bikes, I can't help but think of those old suits 🤣

Alexander the Great

Genghis Khan might have more conquests under his belt, but he definitely lacked a real vision. I guess Alexander was truly The Chosen One, though it’s a shame the cowards wouldn't follow him all the way to India. There is a really great 4-part documentary from the BBC called "in footsteps of Alexander the Great" hosted by Michael Wood. Even in Iran, people are still talking about the formidable Alexander nearly 25 centuries later.

Back when Alexander was just 21, one of his own knights told him straight up that he was the greatest leader anyone had ever seen

Anyone following Snookee knows exactly who "the rocket" is.

When this guy’s actually focused—meaning he’s sober and his head is in the right place (he’s a recovering alcoholic, after all, and deals with depression)—watching him work is honestly just as entertaining as some NBA playoff games.

Covik set the record for the fastest 147 ever in just five minutes about twenty years ago. Honestly, there isn't a god alive who's going to break that.

Man, that's a tough one. If you look at the whole package—military conquests, how they actually ruled, their overall legacy—there's really only one answer: Napoleon.

If we're strictly talking pure military genius, though? It's easy. Alexander the Great. Nobody even comes close to him.

Me? I've always had a soft spot for Isabella.😉

Well, I suppose I’ll have to go have a long chat with a man who actually lived through the reigns of Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and Winston Churchill. I'll get back to you once I have the scoop...

But what kind of criteria are we using here? It's actually a pretty tough question to answer on the spot...

I guess when he was five, his mother told him he was a god, and maybe he actually believed her—which, honestly, might have been true.
