American Pharoah and Kansas City Royals are running away it on Day 1.

Do they always throw in whole teams to compete against individuals? Weak.

American Pharoah
Serena Williams
Kansas City
Steph Curry
Jordan Speith

Whole teams have won it before. The 1980 us hockey team and the 05 Redsox I believe are the only ones.

Sorry 04 Red Sox. Also the 1999 women's soccer team.

Man, if only we would have finished off the undefeated season last year.... Sigh, going to take a while to get over last season.

 

[funKYcat75]

Is Caitlyn a nominee?

 

[We-Todd-Did]

I don't like having whole teams or horses in it but I honestly have to go with the horse. He was the most dominating athlete.

TOUCH the Royals. Some team wins the WS every. damn. year.

 

[UKserialkiller]

Is Caitlyn a nominee?

Yep.

For truck driving.

Pharoah was the first one that came to mind, although I think Bob Baffert is equally deserving, this was the 3rd time at least he brought horses to the Belmont with a chance at the TC, and got it done, then won the BC Classic, a "Grand Slam" which I will wager will never be done again.

I'll take that bet for a hundred
Of course you're going to have to wait for forever to see who wins..

It was an amazing accomplishment

True, LOL. But it was 37 years between TCs, and then to top it off with a BC Classic win, where all the 4 and 5 year olds are eligible? Odds would have to be astronomical. Forget a TC, the Derby Winner had not won the BC Classic since 1989.

I agree it might be a once in a lifetime happening
