World's Most Dominant Sportsman

this is totally subjective, as i said before.
basically, either you think darts is a sport or you don't

personally, i don't.
snooker is a lot more complicated than darts, and requires more skill to do well (in my subjective opinion)
golf takes a lot of skill too (in my subjective opinion) and most golf courses will be miles long, so you are physically exercising (and possibly breaking a sweat) when you play.

So the level of difficulty is what makes it a sport for you.

My vote goes to hockey's Wayne Gretzky. He holds or shares 61 NHL records includeing career goals, assists and points. Not to mention the single season scoring record, the fact that he won the Ross Trophy (scoring champion) ten times, the Hart Trophy (league MVP) nine times, four Stanley Cups, three Canada Cups, and was named to the NHL all star team 15 times. He dominated the sport of hockey like no other and for that will always be known as the Great One. For a complete list of stats and accomplishemnts see this link: The Great One

no, i don't judge whether an activity is a sport or game by difficulty alone, however i believe this should be a factor.

michael jordan
roger clemens
wayne gretzky
pete sampras

and of course....MUHAMMAD ALI

big thanks to Got memory? for his assistance in modifying my avatar.
also, my sig is looking a little crappy, it's cos the source pics were huge (900x700) so the details are quite blurred
