TBOR Athlete of the Month - June 2010 (plus 1995 recap)

Friday, June 25, 2010


John Isner.  Runners-up Garrett Wittels, Rafael Nadal, Kobe Bryant.

Isner joins the other 5 nominees in our race for Athlete of the Year. I had Kobe penciled in for the month, but an 11 hour tennis match is an undeniable feat. 

The year's half over; I guess I'd lean Brees as the current leader.  I took notes on the lottery last night and will put up a draft blog time permitting. 

Here's 1995:
