Joba wins vote, makes cover--(good thing he wasn't traded)

"THE PEOPLE’S CHOICE. (ESPN) The Magazine asked. The fans voted. Joba Chamberlain is NEXT. For the third year in a row, The Magazine polled fans on ESPN.com to select the athlete destined to make the biggest impact on sports in the coming year (and years). And while the Yankees fireballer came out on top, the four runner-ups - Noel Devine (West Virginia tailback), Tyson Gay (sprinter), Brandon Roy (Portland Trailblazers) and Patrick Willis (San Francisco 49ers) – aren’t too shabby either. Each of their beautiful todays is sure to be outpaced by boundless tomorrows."
