    No Bills on the list, but look at the old school matches for numbers 19 and 21...

    unfortunately the list stops at 25. If it went to 26, rob Johnson would have made the cut. ;-)

    Wow, when a sissy ass golfer is number one on the list it has no credibility. Golf isn't even a sport.

    Bob Sanders?

    Steve Smith?

    Where the hell is Hines Ward? He's the toughest SOB in the league.

    Re: 25 Toughest Athletes

    A golfer at #1? There are 1,000,000 athletes out there that are mentally tougher than any friggin' golfer. They only had 1 Ironman triathelete in there. Those people are nuts! Swim 2.5 miles, bike 100 miles, and run 26.2 miles in a matter of hours.... Insane!
    The Iditerod? That's tough. How about mountain climbers? Now THAT is tough! Golf? Gimme a break.
