There is no one in tennis history that has the kind of reputation, charisma, and showmanship that Agassi has and displays on and off the court. Barry is one of the most mysterious ball players to ever strap on the spikes. Just last week, Bonds became the first player ever to reach the milestone of 400 home runs and 400 stolen bases. He has given the Giants his heart and soul regardless of what the media may perceive him to be. He stays true to himself, his ability, and his beliefs and for that he makes Fred's top picks.
Hanks can flat out act.
The guy went from doing stand up comedy wherever people would listen, to Bosom Buddies, to Big, and eventually to winning two Academy Awards. That does not include the one he can very well win this year for his performance in Saving Private Ryan. Forest Gump, his second classic performance, was a movie I saw about five or six times in the theater. I dragged anyone I could, to go with me, as I watched Forest run, get shot, play football, play ping-pong, and be with Jenny. The new young guys like Damon and Edward Burns might think there getting big, but no one can capture a scene and a room like Mr. Hanks.
