Most influential people in the world?
I'd wager that 95%+ of the world have ever heard of Jeremy Lin and 85%+ have never heard of Tim Tebow.
Chelsea Handler? Really?
Mediots put names like these on lists like this to get people like us to talk about it, thereby generating sales and web traffic. I call it the "Borges Effect" whereby mediots say stupid things designed to get people all riled up because it is better to be ridiculed for being stupid than it is to simply be ignored.Jeremy Lin and Tebow really?? aren't there more influential people out there in the world? i mean, come on..................

tebow i agree with because of how polarizing he is, and his great charity work
lin? that's just dumb
I'd wager you're wrong, especially with Lin. 95% of the world? If even 1/3 of America and China knows who he is, a pretty conservative estimate, that's 10% right there.
Lin isn't influential, but people know who the man is.
Tebow is the current most polarizing athletic figure in the world. People either love him or hate him with little middle ground and everyone discussing him. At least for 2010-11, he has been extremely influential.
Now Chelsea Handler, she can fall into a ditch.
good god. Typing 30+ pages in a report over two days makes my brain hurt, can't believe I did the your / you're thing
You have to think since basketball is played all over the world and a more popular sport than football globally that having Lin on the list makes sense. I bet he got many young Asian kids (more so Chinese/Taiwanese) around the world believing they can one day play pro ball with hard work. Of course you would need to have the talent and physical ability too but I dare say he probably influence many young Asian kids around the world.
TIME's content and credibility has been on the slide for some time, matching the decline in journalistic integrity and content worldwide.Tebow is likely the most influential on this list. ON CAMERA he's doing and saying all the right things.
It's a popularity list, obviously. When I saw they had placed that nasty and sl***y Rihanna on the list, I really started to question Time's credibility.
