Please tell me that SI didn't do what I think they did?
Sportsman of the Year
Don't get me wrong, but Wade's a good player.. but there are quite a few other choices out there that were better options than Wade...
And some of the authors individual choices were even more ridiculous.
The Owners of Barbaro? FOR WHAT?
Barbaro's Doctor? WTH???!!???
Vince Young? (For one game in 2006?)
I think these authors have forgotten what the "sportsman of the year" is supposed to be about.
I'd have put Roger Federer first.. (Winning over and over + various contributions outside the tennis world)
Then The New Orleans Saints Organization (Winning team + helping rebuild an entire REGION of a country).
then Tiger Woods third... (winning, winning, more winning and major contributions).
But Dwayne Wade? They didn't put one reason why he was a "Sportsman".. they just listed his struggles from MANY years ago and his record from last season.
THAT IS NOT A SPORTSMAN WORTHY STORY/AWARD.... SHAME ON SI!!
