The lamestream media like to promote athletes based not on skill, but for liberal reasons. Here's a growing list of the most underrated sports stars:
| Athlete | Achievement | Possible reasons for being underrated |
|---|---|---|
| Tim Duncan | Led an average team to five NBA Championships, without supercoach Phil Jackson | played in conservative Texas, while the liberal media overpromoted liberals like Kobe Bryant |
| Serena Williams | The finest women's athlete of all-time and likely to break the record for the most grand slam victories in women's tennis despite playing in a highly competitive era | a devout Christian |
| Stan Musial | Seven batting titles, three championships, and overall statistics better than nearly everyone; ESPN called him one of the five best players of all-time,[1] and Bill James ranked him as #7 all-time[2] | a devout Catholic who played in the conservative Midwest |
| Eddie Murray | one of very few baseball superstars to exceed 500 home runs and 3,000 base hits | gave the media the silent treatment, and a sneaker company dared to run him for president in a humorous campaign against liberal Bill Clinton in 1996[3] |
| Reggie White | the best defensive football player ever, he twice won the AP Defensive Player of the Year award, set an NFL career record at the time of 198 sacks, appeared 13 consecutive times in the Pro Bowl, and won a Super Bowl championship[4] | spoke out against the homosexual agenda and was hated by homosexual activists for it |
| Babe Didrickson Zaharias | She excelled in three sports. She won 2 gold and 1 silver medal in Track & Field in the 1932 Olympics, she was the first women to make the cut in a PGA gold tournament, she won the British Womens Championship golf tournament, and she was an All-American basketball player. | She was a woman. |
| Lottie Dod | She excelled in four sports. She won Wimbledon 5 times, played field hockey for England, won the British Womens Championship golf tournament, and won a silver medal in archery in the 1908 Olympics. | She was a woman. |
| Clara Hughes | She was the only person, male or female to win multiple medals in both Summer and Winter Olympics, in cycling and speed skating, representing Canada. | She is a woman. |
| Bonnie Blair | Representing the USA at speed-skating, she was one of the most successful Olympians of all time, male or female, winning 5 gold and 1 bronze medals at the 1988, 1992 and 1994 Winter Games. | She is a woman. |
| Tracy Caulkins | An American-Australian swimmer who set 5 World Records and 63 American records and won 3 Olympic gold medals. One of the outstanding competitive swimmers of all time, male or female. | She is a woman. |
