      Tyson COULD have been the first to a Billion, but.......

          It's hard to believe that MJ isn't a billionaire.

                  Indeed. Cheaper to keep her.

                          I read that MJ was the first because the stock for Air Jordans got him over the hump. I need to see if I can find that. Ironically, both are Nike men.......

                              I agree, he must be.

                                  Im not shocked. Considering Tiger has numerous lines of his own clubs...A close connection with Nike...And his own video game. Oh yeah he wins tourneys which is like millions each.

                                  Tiger Woods is untouchable.

                                          Yea, it's because he is the sport.
                                          "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                                              He also has a course-designing business.

                                              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                                                      Tiger doesn't share his winnings w/anyone. He doesn't have teammates or an owner. So I'm not surprised a golfer would be the 1st.

                                                          What? Why would anyone share money with teammates or an owner?

                                                          Steve Williams, Tiger Woods' caddie makes over $1million per year, and gets stuff like a $140,000 Ford GT, which Tiger bought him after a win in '07
