Who's Now: Determine the Ultimate Sports Star
 

ESPN.com
Throughout July, "SportsCenter" will air "Who's Now," a daily series in which viewers will help ESPN determine the ultimate sports star by considering both on-field success and off-field buzz. Based on fan nominations, ESPN Research selected 32 finalists to square off in a single-elimination bracket. The winner of each matchup will advance based upon fan voting (70 percent) and ESPN's three-person panel (30 percent). In the first round, the panel consists of Michael Wilbon, Kirk Herbstreit and Keyshawn Johnson.

Brady isn't as 'popular' outside of football, so that might hurt him. Knockin up one girl while dating another might hurt too

Reggie should do well- popular with younger fans (my students love him, even in ATL) and he is showing up on more commercials
