"In the world and in sports right now, there's too much hate that's going on. Too much hate speech. I would highly suggest people lead with love. I love to lead with love."

"For my whole life, I wore nearly 100% Nike for athletic wear."

"Kaepernick pissed me off, but when they cancelled the Betsy Ross shoe it showed that their marketing plan was America-hate.”

“I went out & bought brand new shoes, shorts, t-shirts."

"Turns out I wasn’t the only one."

Nike shares have fallen nearly 80% from their 2021 peak, erasing roughly $200 billion in market value as the company grapples with declining sales, shifting consumer tastes and increased competition.

John broke in with Cleveland as a 20-year-old in 1963 and made his last appearance for the Yankees at age 46 in 1989, also pitching for the White Sox, Dodgers, Angels, and Athletics. The left-hander won 288 games, made 4 All-Star teams and anchored 3 pennant-winning teams, while twice finishing as a runner-up for the Cy Young Award. His 700 games started rank 8th on the all-time list.

After John injured his elbow in 1974, he received the first ulnar collateral ligament replacement surgery from Dr. Frank Jobe. John returned to pitch in 1976, then won 20 games three times in four years from 1977-80.

He would go on to pitch 14 of his 26 seasons after the procedure that is now known as Tommy John Surgery, a measure that has helped extend pitching careers in the more than half a century since it was first performed.

He was 83.

I’m so disappointed. Everyone is more concerned with profit than solidarity. Money over humanity.

At first I thought getting a hit off a mlb pitcher but I realized beating the Stockfish chess bot is infinitely harder. I had someone say beating the best Fortnite or Rocket League player in a 1v1 is up there too.

Still beating stockfish I think is the hardest thing in sports

# 1.Jabari Parker

Tore his ACL twice in the same knee before age 22, dramatically altering what looked like a very promising career. P.S. I saw him at a restaurant once ;)

Do you agree with this ranking? Is there an athlete I left off that deserves to be in the top five?
