This is not a bragging post, I'm just curious to see (find out about) other current athletes/noteables from other Montana towns...should be a fun topic...please add your towns....
Butte
Colt Anderson - NFL Minnesota Viking
Rob Johnson - MLB Seattle Mariners Catcher
Bryon Wilson - World Class Skier and recent Olympic Bronze Medalist
Levi Leipheimer - Olympian, 3rd place Tour De France in 2007, 3-time champ Tour De California
I like this Leipheimer qoute in the New York Times: (after 3rd title in Feb 2009)
“To win it once, that was huge,” Leipheimer said. “To win it twice, it felt like I was a little bit lucky. Now, to win it three times, it’s the sweetest victory. The expectations are higher. You can’t get second place because that’s losing.”
Sounds familiar... :lol: ...here in Griz country.
Here's a link to his website, a video of him and Lance Armstrong plays...(levi broke...)
