Marta ahead of Messi and Ronaldo?

Manning ahead of Brady?

Don't pay any attention to ESPN. They are fake news, through and through.

Clickbait.

Marta is better than either of them, and their impacts, considering their respective sports. Not saying either aren't top 5-10 all time in the men's game, but Marta is way above anyone else who has ever played the women's game.

Who is Martha?

Who is Martha?

George's wife of course.

Who is Martha?

Brazilian women's national team and pro soccer player. She's good, but I don't count her anywhere near as brilliant or impactful to the game as CR7, Messi in the modern game.

...and yet she couldn't make a high school boys team.

...hey, by the associative principle that makes my son a better athlete than Messi. Cool!

This list is PC crap and nothing else.

She would start at my son's school .... and probably be the leading scorer .... and all-state.

You really do not understand the impact Marta has had on the women's game. Before, they were Mia Hamms. Not trying to slight anyone, but what exactly has Messi or Ronaldo done to change the game besides being fvckin' awesome?

Since she played until her mid-teens on a high-level boys team in Brazil (there were no girls teams of substance), I doubt that....

The list is most dominant player. When and where did Martha dominate? Maybe in her own little world. Pretty sure there are a few women on the USNT that have dominated the whole world.

5-time player of the year. Five STRAIGHT. Was first, second, or third for ten straight years.

So, she dominated the women's game for a decade, and has no other peer (like Messi has Ronaldo and vice-versa).

You probably agree that Manning should be higher on the list than Brady.
