SI.com’s Chris Mannix has nominated Manny Pacquiao for Sports Illustrated’s 2009 Sportsman of the Year award. Mannix not only points to Pacquiao’s achievements in the ring, but to his positive contributions to the Filipino people as well...........
The SI Sportsman of the Year honor is presented annually to the person or team who transcended the year in both athletic performance and character. The descriptor, “It is not for the victory alone that he is honored. Rather, it is for the quality of his effort and the manner of his striving,” lifted from the pages of SI in 1957, represents the defining principle of the award. This year’s award will be announced on December 1, 2009.
The 2009 Sportsman of the Year will join the list of past winners including Muhammad Ali, Lance Armstrong, Michael Jordan, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods, among other athletic greats who have received this award.
