Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» When I ask "whom do you think is the best athlete ever born" does anyone in particular come to mind? Are there too many to pick one?
One might think Jesse Owens or Jim Thorp, but I like several others such as Jeff Gordon, the race car guy. Perhaps you have seen the old Chevy TV commercial where Gordon goes incognito as a chevy customer who gives the unsuspecting car salesman a wild ride as he 'tries out' a new Chevy.
No I haven't seen that commercial but I just smiled because I can imagine how I"d react to that wild ride! Musta been terrifying. I think I'd go with Jim Thorpe too. Don't know much about Jesse Owens. I'll Google him bh. Thank you for your reply. I think Babe Dedrickson was the best female athlete. She was great at every sport in which she participated! :)
