Of course, we all knew that, but it's cool to see him getting the respect he deserves.

My unbiased opinion, I'd have to agree, but Jon Beason comes in at 1b IMO.

What the hell is taking you so long?!!
PT ~ I'm married with 2 kids and a student teacher. I don't have money to throw down on a jersey. I'm still rocking my Jeremy Newberry #62 jersey. I've asked for #52 for X-mas, birthday, Father's Day, etc. How about this, if you buy an XL and send it my way, I'll start the "PTulini is the best 9er fan of all time" thread. Sound good to you? Gotta love the off-season.

Willis is the best MLB on the field, but I think its tough to argue there's a better leader in the NFL than Ray Lewis. Ray also calls defenses, audibles, and understands the mental side of the game much better. So I guess it depends on what factors you consider the most important - Willis is younger, faster, and just plain better at the physical aspects of the game, but Ray has the edge in the intangibles imo.
I also think that Beason was rated a little low and agree with Jamie Dukes (for maybe the first time in history) - Bart Scott should never have made that list.
What was Ray Lewis doing his first five years in the league?
