Favorite Athletes
« on: April 29, 2023, 09:53:21 PM »
Ranking the top 5 professional athletes in Wisconsin has me thinking about favorite athletes. My list would include, in some order but not perfect:

Jrue
Giannis
Wade
Reggie White
Charles Woodson
CC Sabathia
Greinke
Diener
Jae

Favorite athletes that did not play for my favorite teams (more just who I find the most entertaining) would include:

Curry
Mahomes
KD
Rocket Trigger Warning (wild that saying this would trigger anyone, but it's the world we live in): Black Lives Matter

Pronghorns have tremendous speed and endurance.  They could run a marathon in about 45 mins.

Are planes, trains, automobiles, boats, rockets, etc athletes?  I don't think so.  All of the greatest athletes are neither humans or machines.

They are amazing game. Incredible vision, and tough to stalk.

Took mine at 250 yards, and windy. 165 Gr boat tail. 30 aught.

Watching an antelope cross a fence is funny. At full speed, you would think they would soar. Instead, they come to a dead stop and crawl under the fence.  Every time. 

They are in beautiful country…except for those damned prickly pair cactus. Not suitable for 5/1 activities.
