We can argue about historical vs current talent, etc, but bottom line is that while Vonn is still active, I don't see her overtaking Moser-Pröll. |

Vonn just needs to win 21 more races not an impossible feat. She beats her in the hot babe contests..... |

Annemarie was a rarity to race so long at such a level - only Girardelli is comparible for longevity. Annemarie also has 7 Downhill World Cups - Vonn would also have to match that to become an honorary Austrian God. The knock on Girardelli is still that he didn't like Downhill, so that's in Vonn's favor. She beats her in the hot babe contests... Well, the jewelry helps, but Annemarie was a pretty hot babe in her day. http://www.annemarie-moser-proell.at/images/weltcupsiege.jpg |
