quote:

Todd Helton was a starting QB at Tenner before he got hurt and had a stellar MLB career.


Not factually incorrect, and Helton is a great athlete.

But he likely never starts at Tenner if their starting QB doesn't go down in the season opener against UCLA.

Career numbers:

41-75
484 yds
4 TD 3 INT

Dude's a HoF baseball player though.

Greatest ever athlete? While you can argue Walker or Bo, with good arguments the reality of it is you should look beyond football/basketball. A few names that should be on the shortlist:

Ryan Lochte
Abby Wambach
Dara Torres
Novlene Williams-Mills
Jeff Demps
Billy Cannon
Todd Helton
Grant Holloway

You win multi-year Olympic medals and or own world records you can be argued as greatest athletes.
