Athelete of the year for 07
Dont know if we have done this one yet...Any sport I did not have any women but any gender

#1 Floyd Mayweather from fairly good success with Dancing with the Stars..to an incredible 50 million in PPV buys and is the first non-heavyweight to acheive that...oh and by the way he whipped two damn good fighters..

#2 Tom Brady....16-0

#3 Peyton Manning SuperBowl MVP and followed that up with 13-3 regular season

#4 Lebron James..by himself got a mediocre team to the NBA finals

#5 Roger Federer complete domination..only thing missing is the French

just missed -ARod..statistically huge year and if they went further in the playoffs could have been tied with #4 or 5

What does everyone else think???

Agree with this list, but I have Randy Couture as #1 and no A-Rod

i think randy moss belongs on the list.... just broke the best WR evers TD catch in a season record and is probably the main reason NE is now 16-0, Brady never put up numbers even close to this w/ out moss but obv everyone will talk about brady

Actually was Brady was 18-1 in 07 counting the 06 playoffs...but hey who's counting.
I like Mayweather as #1, wouldnt be the first person I would think of but a good choice none the less.

I would go with Tiger Woods. Alot of you guys don`t consider golfers as athletes, but he is solid every year.
