Apparently Greg Blewett is a better golfer than punter according to Deano in an interview I just heard

He's got nothing on Deion Sanders AD - The only man ever to score a touchdown in the NFL and a home run in the MLB in the same week!!!

Tony Romo is a mere white man AD there's another one for you, Dallas Cowboys QB and a great golfer. I suppose we could take credit for Scott Draper, pro tennis and golfer, but he was crap at both in the big time so not much to hang the hat on.
Bo Jackson was a superstar Crow, but a touchdown and a home run in the same week is downright ridiculous. For that I gotta give it to Deion even though Bo may have been the better athlete overall. |

fair call.
iszzi folau?  the greatest all time athlete is indisputably the american Jim Thorpe heres an excert Believe it or not, Thorpe once hit 3 home runs into 3 different states in the same game. During a semi-pro baseball game in a ballpark on the Texas-Oklahoma-Arkansas border, he hit his first homer over the leftfield wall with the ball landing in Oklahoma, his second homer over the rightfield wall into Arkansas and his third homer of the game was an inside-the-park home run in centerfield, which was in Texas! • Thorpe is one of two men in history who played for the New York Giants in two different sports. In football, he was the New York Giants' running back and in baseball he was the New York Giants' outfielder. • Thorpe played football professionally well past his prime, retiring in 1928 at age 41. • Jim Thorpe played major and minor league baseball for 20 years, starting with the New York Giants in 1913 and later playing a number of other teams, including the Boston Braves and the Cincinnati Reds. • Thorpe was the first president of what is now the National Football League. • Thorpe was .252 in his six seasons (1913-15, 1917-19) as an outfielder with the Giants, Cincinnati Reds and Boston Braves. • Thorpe's best baseball season was his last, when he batted .327 in 60 games for Boston. • At an auction in October 2003, an early 1900s football jersey worn by Jim Thorpe fetched a winning bid of $210,000. • Thorpe was a twin; his brother Charlie died at age nine. • He won the gold medals in the decathlon and pentathlon during the 1912 Olympic Games.  |
