Top 50 Sportsmen we love to love

[spike]

Watched this earlier today on ESPN classic, but only got to see the countdown from 8 to first place but would believe it our very own Alex Higgins came fifth.

It seems as Jimmy was in the top 50 somewhere but not sure where exactly.

Has anyone else seen this at all on ESPN?

For anyone who's interested here is the top 8:
(8) Andrew Flintoff
(7) Steve Redgrave
(6) PaulGascoigne
(5) Alex Higgins
(4) George Best
(3) Ian Botham
(2) Bobby Moore
(1) Muhammad Ali

I'm so different when it comes to things like this, the 'popular' players and crowd favourites are very rarely the ones that I like, in any sport.

Hm, I only know half of the people on the list I guess it is country specific... I would have expected Jimmy White instead of Alex Higgins up on the list though.
