What is sport?
Sport is an activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively. Sports commonly refer to activities where the physical capabilities of the competitor are the sole or primary determinant of the outcome (winning or losing), but the term is also used to include activities such as mind sports (a common name for some card games and board games with little to no element of chance) and motor sports where mental acuity or equipment quality are major factors. Sport is commonly defined as an organized, competitive and skillful physical activity requiring commitment and fair play. Some view sports as differing from games based on the fact that there are usually higher levels of organization and profit (not always monetary) involved in sports. Accurate records are kept and updated for most sports at the highest levels, while failures and accomplishments are widely announced in sport news.
Even though the only sports I watch with regularity are Soccer,Tennis and Basketball this list will also feature those from the world of Boxing,Wrestling,Competitive Eating,Foosball,Baseball and many more sports.
My reasonings for ranking folks is completely arbitrary for example Joe Montana or Jerry Rice might be Great role models and also arguably 2 of the greatest foosball players who ever lived but they are tres boring so they will not be appearing on said list.
