Mohammad Ali is my favourite sportsperson of all time.

Aside from him, I dunno. I was a huge personal fan of Mark Taylor as far as cricket goes.. and Andrew McLeod maybe?

Apart from Strauss, are the rest Norwegian footballers who play for the greatest team in Europe and Norway Bodo/Glimit, or winter athletes.

3 is too small IMO, but Michael Jordan is right up there. I regret not being able to watch him play live.

I'm surprised no F! fan hasn't listed Aryton Senna, who's efforts in the world of F1 made him as big as any of Brazil's greatest footballers, and that is no mean feat.

The color of immortality, nature and envy - you are truly a unique person. While clearly the color of nature, you also symbolize rebirth, fertility and hope in the world. On the other side of the spectrum, a natural aptitude to money with green coming to signify money and possibly even *********!
