My vote is for Messi by far. |

Date: August 3rd, 2012 2:48 PM Author: Crusty Boiling Water Ronaldo did come up. Though most of the benefits of being Ronaldo are also accorded to Messi, i.e. Messi is just as famous (maybe not in US), and I'm sure can pretty much get any woman he wanted.
In the soccer world, while Ronaldo is a respected player, he will never be considered on the same level as Messi. |

Date: August 3rd, 2012 4:14 PM Author: excitant area hissy fit I personally have nothing but love for Zidane. But dealing with the fallout of how he left the game would get tiring and it seemed like he always had some anger issues.
Michael is an asshole, but his iconic status is pretty awesome. |

Date: August 5th, 2012 1:42 PM Author: Confused coldplay fan Zidane has a 180 personality and treated the game of soccer with an immense respect. A pure artist in his craft. MJ obviously is 180 too but Zidane is objectively a better person, I think.

Dude makes a ton of money, has all the stardom/ fame. But at the same time, I bet if he dresses down,maybe wear a hat, etc. he could probably walk around even in Argentina without being recognized.
No way in hell LeBron could do that just for the fact that he's 6 8 250 lbs. People would just stare at him cause of his stature alone, and then realize it's LeBron and rush him.
I wouldn't want to deal with that shit. |

messi / ronaldo on the other hand can bang as many girls as he wants, and no tabloid or tmz is going to give a shit if the girl contacts them wanting to sell her 'love texts' with him. for lebron otoh, he's fucked, they'll pay 50k for those texts |

Messi: best soccer player ever, but you are 5'6" and average-looking LeBron: best current NBA player, but you are ginormous and black and balding Ronaldo: might only be the second best current soccer player, but you are 6'2" and basically perfect-looking |

Date: August 5th, 2012 1:45 PM Author: Confused coldplay fan Nah ding. He'd need to win 2 WCs to be considered. The current GOATs either did it at an incredible age with arguably the best team around or by himself by sheer will and arrogance (and cocaine, probably) or would have done it twice if he didn't get a red card in the semis.
Messi is very good and deserves top 5 but unless he can single-handedly carry ARG, he's not gonna be at the level of Pele/Maradona/Zidane |

Date: August 5th, 2012 1:55 PM Author: irradiated demanding idea he suggested gunner You must not watch much soccer if you think everything hinges on a tournament that occurs only once every four years and requires a ton of luck to win.
Messi is going to score 50+ goals a season (maybe 70+) for like a decade. The dude scores over a goal a game, in a sport where you're considered "world class" if you score half as often in a good league. He's 25 and has already won the sport's most important trophy three times, and was the best player on each team. He could retire RIGHT NOW and still be a top 5 player of all time. Barring freak injuries, he will be undisputed GOAT after a few more years of this. |

Both have money and fame but Lebron isn't hideous and midget-sized so he wins. |

But you choose Messi here because you could approach Maradona if you want to. Just a pure God where you live (country and probably region), and an athlete like LeBron to the rest of the world except US. |
