I don't know about that. Let's take Tiger to near death with chemo, etc., give him a year of rehab. Then let's see how good he is the first and second years back. :)

>What Tiger Woods did over the weekend has never been done before. We are looking the at next Babe Ruth or Michael Jordan. People that have redefined the way their sport is played.

>What Lance Armstrong did over the weekend was amazing but it did not redefine anything. He overcamse cancer, surgery and chemotherapy to make his way back into the sport. Coming back as he did should be lauded as a great personal achievement. He should be paraised by everyone for his determination and strength of character for never giving up.

>But again, this is not new. Greg LeMond did something similar in 1990 coming back from gun shot wounds from a hunting accident. He still had shotgun pellets in his body when he won. He repeated as champion in 1991.

>On a personal level, Lance deserves to be number 1 this past weekend. On a purely sports platform, he falls a distant second to Tiger.
