I just went to the SI website (from the link you provided) and discovered that there is a fan poll associated to this SI sportsman of the year award.....You can also vote more than once (very American Idolesque).....I don't know how much the fan vote counts towards winning the award...but I noticed that the all time greatest sportsman award was determined already by a fan poll (completely based on fan voting)...and so perhaps the same is true for this award.....anyway, Phelps is in first place in the fan poll so far....I just added two more votes for Phelps.....How bout some help out there voting for Phelps....If he wins the award it will only help to promote the sport of swimming.
