"Top 25" current New York athletes

Newsday has a photo gallery of the top 25 current athletes, which you can find here. While reading this list, I had one constant thought. Huh?
Some of the bigger head-scratchers:
1) Jamal Crawford - This list doesn't define whether these players are judged by talent, popularity or some mix of both. I guess you have to have a Knick on there, but there are more popular and more talented Knicks (David Lee, Nate Robinson, etc.) that could be featured.
2) Alan Faneca - The man has yet to play a single game for the Jets. A bit premature to say the least.
3) Johan Santana - He's a superstar, but he just got here.
4) Alex Rodriguez - ARod has every right to be high on this list, but he should never be number one on any list regarding New York. He fades in the clutch, and the ordeal he put the Yankees through over the winter should never be forgotten.
