::Then why aren't more [[Greatest Conservative Sports Stars]] among the winners??? Ted Williams wasn't good enough for it??? LeBron James, this past year's winner, is not even the best basketball player, let alone the best athlete.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 20:01, 21 January 2013 (EST)

:::::I am not saying the list is faultless. Lebron surely shouldn't be the Sportsman of the Year in any year due to his hubris; but the list appears to partially transcend the best player in any sport of that particular year, but one who played well and also cared about a particular social issue.

:::Drew Brees also appears on your list and won Sportsman of the Year in 2010. --[[User:DonnyC|DonnyC]] 20:11, 21 January 2013 (EST)

::::I don't buy into any political conspiracy, but I am curious as to why an award that is apparently a world-wide award is so disproportionately given to Americans. Look at 2005 for instance. Is there anyone who could with a straight face say that Tom Brady was better than Dan Carter that year? I doubt it. --[[User:DamianJohn|DamianJohn]] 20:17, 21 January 2013 (EST)
