Well, how about that then, Armstrong just edged out Schumacher as the
BBC sports overseas personality of the year.

Look out tonight for the
BBC's 50th sports personality of the year. It's a look back over the past 50 years of the award so
Jacques Anquetil and
Tom Simpson should get a mention.
There's no mention of Eddy Merckx though, look's like he was beaten to the Overseas awards by Pele, Trevino, Korbut, Laver and Ali. The
roll of honour makes for some interesting reading.
I couldn't see the overseas nominations for this year but maybe Lance Armstrong will get a mention.
