I don't know, maybe for the UK this collection of articles is useful but for example the top 10 list does nothing for me. To some degree the selections are pretty much easy choices though one would think at least one event prior to 1938 should have made the list.

The 1919 World Series for example? Maybe 'Greatest' could also mean 'Most significant'.

I was rather stunned by Jesse Owens' exclusion from their list.
