Bloomberg BusinessWeek's Power Sports 100 is a list of athletes and sport personalities that tries to rank them in terms of their influence in their respective sports and off it. Practically, the most powerful athletes in America these days. Considerations for the list includes actual performance on their sport and endorsements.

And I'm glad that our very own Manny Pacquiao is included at number 24. Ahead of much recognizable names such as Derek Jeter, Brett Favre, Kevin Garnett, etc.

Of course this is just one of the many, many accolades PacMan has received since climbing the pinnacle of Boxing.

And on an unrelated note, my favorite basketball player nowadays, Steve Nash is at no. 51 while former no. 1 on the list, Tiger Woods is at number 3 just like his world golf ranking.
