 * Delete isn't even research, it's one viewpoint of a topic that could be debated endlessly. Hopelessly unencyclopedic. RadioFan (talk) 22:42, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. WP:OR at its purest. Yilloslime T C  22:56, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Calling this original research demeans actual research. I suspect it was copied from a list like this one, but I can't find the exact same one. Bradjamesbrown (talk) 00:11, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete regardless of whether it's the author's list or it's copied from someone else's list. Mandsford (talk) 02:43, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong delete – Someone's personal list of greatest athletes has absolutely zero encyclopedic value, and that's assuming it wasn't ripped off from somewhere.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 03:29, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
