Alphabet Sheep-Sports Stars Edition (Prize On Offer!)

Reberetta

The object of SHEEP is to give the most popular answer.

The topic of this quiz is SPORTS STARS. PM me a list of 26 sports stars in alphabetical order. All sports are acceptable-even stuff like WWE, darts and chess etc.

DO NOT post your list in this thread.

I am looking for SURNAMES

---

but PLEASE PROVIDE THE FIRST NAME TOO! so I know who you are referring to-failure to do so might result in 1 point for your answer.

But wait, before you do....beware of the traps!

I have chosen two sports stars from a hat-one very well-known, one not so well-known generally.

1.If you give me the very well-known sports star you will get minus points
E.G. if the well-known sports star is Mickey Mouse and you answer Mickey Mouse for M and 9 other people give the name Mickey Mouse for M this will result in minus 10 points for all 10 who gave that answer!

2. If you give me the lesser-known sports star you will get double the points of the sheep score of that letter
E.G. if the lesser-known sports star is Mickey Mouse and you answer Mickey Mouse for M and the sheep score for M is 25 you will get a massive 50 points!

The two chosen sports stars will be revealed at the end of the game.

Is that clear? I hope so.

Remember PM me SURNAMES of sports stars first and foremost with their first names just so I'm certain who you are referring to.

I'm not going to be militant about it-some sports stars are so well known that's it's obvious who you mean, some stars are known by one name, by a nickname, by a name that isn't technically their surname etc-you get the gist I'm sure!

One more thing-there is a prize on offer! I will post a prize to an Irish/N.Irish address for the winner free of charge! What will the prize be? Who knows-you'll just have to win to find out! (And if I just make an excuse and forget about it or the prize is totally crap, what ya gonna do? :P)

There are no incorrect answers in Sheep-can you pick the most popular one? Let's find out!

I will keep this open for a couple of weeks and reveal will take place soon after provided we get the numbers of course.


EDIT:I should point out the sports stars can be active, retired, dead or alive.
