The Patriots are great.

Tom Brady is great.

Tom Brady is superhuman! Look how long he's lasted without getting all beat up and having to retire. And man...has he been clocked by head hunting ruthless defenders. Look how beat up Peyton Manning was; a major neck injury that sidelined him for an entire year, limped through his last season missing half of it, and the worst performance of a Super Bowl winning QB in 2015. Brady simply is da man!?

Tom Brady is a player, not an athlete.

The best guaranteed clean athlete is yourself

Kobe Bryant wasn't even the best athlete in the history of his sport.

I think we pretty much agreed years ago on these boards it was Larry Bird.

The problem is we never got to see how truly great Uncle Rico could have been since coach never put him in. They would've been state champs.

There are a lot of words you could use to describe her, but clean isn’t one of them. I’m guessing there are spots that haven’t been properly washed in decades.

Im going to go with Galen for my answer to the original question. Dude is a major ‘thon winner and NOP gets tested more than anyone else. If there was real dirt, it would have been found by now. Do any other runners - full marry or otherwise - get tested as often as him?

Nick Wills

Galen Rupp

Evan Jager

Not athletic.

Tom Brady is great.

define great o-line, one that lets their qb hit more than any other o-line?

Yourself, if you are clean.

This was my exact answer. Why do we automatically assume that every white American distance runner is clean? With the exception of anyone who runs for NOP, who we automatically assume is a cheat.

Kobe Bryant the Greatest Athlete in World History in all sports

Negative...that would be Tom Brady.

Ha ha, what nonsense - try picking from sports that are actually played the world over before selecting individual athletes...

Who's 'we'?

Caster Semenya. Drug free and wins like crazy, No mention ever of taking PEDs.

Yiannis Kouros

Kipchoge, Willis

The answer is "some 14-year-old field hockey player."

Comparatively - Paula Radcliffe. Closely followed by Mo Farah.
