Sports Illustrated has named Tom Brady Sportsman of the Year, which I suppose is a good choice, especially since football players are at a natural disadvantage due to their season ending in January. I figured it was between Brady and Peyton Manning, though I was afraid they'd go with Danica Patrick. Jason Giambi's candidacy, mercifully, was not supported by anyone at SI other than Franz Lidz. Considering Lidz's choice in 2004 was Kobe Bryant, look for him to stump for Rae Carruth in '06.
