The 100 Most Influential People In Sports...Presented By BusinessWeek.Com

Thank you to Businessweek.com for providing us with the list. Here is the top 10 and here is a link if you want to whole list of the Top 100.

Now one thing I have noticed is there is now BonaFide Sports Expert Robert Littal on the list. You know and I know that is simply ridiculous. Simply put who has more influence than me?

Who else has the whole world saying:

"Sarah Palin: Alaskan Milfs The Pipeline Edition"

The Obama people told me they he was going to use the line last night, but they just ran out of time. I am calling an official protest until I am added to the list. This is a travesty.

*I am kidding...............kinda*


TOP 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN SPORTS

01 TIGER WOODS Golfer
His absence from the PGA Tour this year has opened the world's eyes to how powerful he really is.

02 ROGER GOODELL Commissioner, NFL
Under his reign, pro football rumbles on as America's most popular, and profitable, sports league.

03 DAVID STERN Commissioner, NBA
In charge 24 years, Stern has expanded the league's reach to Europe and China, but a scandal over referee gambling required some cleanup.

04 GEORGE BODENHEIMER President, ESPN
Looking to strengthen an already mighty brand, Bodenheimer aims to win the rights to the 2014 and 2016 Olympics.

05 DICK EBERSOL Chairman, NBC Sports
Prime-time ratings for the Beijing Olympics trumped those from Athens four years earlier, and fans flocked to NBC's Web site for streaming video.

06 PHIL KNIGHT Chairman, Nike
Co-founder Knight oversees the top athletic shoe and apparel outfit on the planet. Enough said.

07 ALLAN "BUD" SELIG Commissioner, MLB
With baseball finally free of its steroid scandal, Selig's next challenge is testing instant replays on home runs.

08 BRIAN FRANCE Chairman and CEO, Nascar
Even with hiccups over faulty tires and failed inspections, Nascar still boasts the most brand-loyal fans in sports.

09 MICHAEL JORDAN NBA great; minority owner, Charlotte Bobcats
Five years after retiring, MJ retains a star power that extends far beyond hoops.

10 SEAN MCMANUS President, CBS News and Sports
McManus manages a juggernaut of NCAA March Madness, the NFL, the U.S. Open, and lots of golf--while also keeping an eye on CBS News.
