Don't know much about NASCAR, but the dude is dominant....

OC....since you think it's so funny, how about you enlighten us as to why he shouldn't win.

Its not the Sports Athlete of the last 4 Years Award though...
 
Im pretty sure golfers are more widely accepted as athletes than NASCAR drivers... Especially Tiger.


And even if the Athlete part isnt factored...

Its not like Jimmie dominated more than anyone has before THIS year.

Hes won 4 straight or w.e. but how does that factor into THIS year?


Tiger DOMINATES the tour.
 
Golf is more of a sport than NASCAR bruh.

Golf involves physical exertion, as does Football, Basketball, Hockey, Baseball...etc...




NASCAR you turn left....for 500 hundred miles. Don't give me the spill about how hot it is in their cars either...There's thousands of regular jobsthat people do in heat.
 
I'm okay with this. Jimmie Johnson is absolutely dominating in his sport.
And yes, NASCAR drivers are as much athletes as golfers as far as I'm concerned.
 
Who else would win this award?

Kobe?
LeBron?
Tiger?
Big Ben?


Johnson seems like the logical choice to me...he made history in his sport, who else has done that this year?
