| By all accounts, I'd say right now we're seeing a few kids who could make similar impacts on their sports.
In hockey, Crosby and Ovechkin have landed in the NHL as youngsters with more impact than anyone I can remember myself. And shit, Crosby is 18 years old.
In basketball, like airr23 said, LeBron is the best all-around player in years, and I'm pretty sure he's still only 20. I'm pretty sure Jordan wasn't nearly as good at that age.
In golf, Michelle Wie has everything it takes to absolutely demolish the LPGA. And obviously don't forget Tiger.
Even football, a sport where no one player has ever really dominated, is going to gain a superstar next year in Reggie Bush... now I don't think one guy is ever going to have a Gretzky/Jordan type impact on football, but Bush is the best prospect we've seen in years. |
