Back in November, Donovan McNabb said that Jimmie Johnson (and his NASCAR brethren) wasn't an athlete on Fox Sports Live, mere days before Johnson won his sixth Sprint Cup Championship. Johnson took the criticism like a man, and appeared on Fox Sports Live the next week to refute McNabb's comments (though the former quarterback wasn't on the set that evening).
But Johnson hasn't truly gotten over the comment, as this tweet is evidence of.
So I'm told the @AP or @AP_Sports ranked me as the 3rd best athlete of 2013… not bad for a non-athlete.
