(who probably isn't on the list only because he's not an active athlete right now.) The obvious answer about Tiger's is the thing that surprises you: it's about golf. Consider for a moment what sport is the most equipment dependent and probably also the most popular. (I routinely see people asking for golf related gifts, never for baseball, basketball, hockey, football.) Second, golf has still an "ordinary" feel to it. So there's a way in which, despite their tremendous skill, these golfers still seem quite "like us". Tiger has transcended sport in a way that only Michael Jordan has done before him.

He is in the position to combine his franchise with finance smarts to make a lot of gains. Kudos to LeBron!

I once had a newspaper story bounced back to me by an editor because I had spelled Wade's first name using the standard spelling. LOL My bad...I should have checked. Fortunately, the error was caught early. Wade is my favorite player and he's also very smart with his money. I also like LeBron James. He and Wade are pals. They are a part of a great NBA draft class. I think baseball--sad to say--is on a slow decline in the states. My sons (middle school and high school) have very little patience with the game. Great List JLP
