Wayne Gretzky: It’s hard to believe “The Great One” is 46 today. When you think hockey, you think Gretzky. 61 NHL records, nine MVPs, ten scoring titles, and four Stanley Cups. There’s simply no comparison that can be made with Gretzky, he’s in his own league. He’s currently coaching the Phoenix Coyotes.

Vince Carter: Former Raptor and current Net, VC is 30 today. He’s gone through some trials but has returned to his standard of great play for the Nets. Carter scored 33 points in last night’s loss to the Clippers. He’s averaging nearly 25 PPG for the 20-23 Nets.

Jose Mourinho: The flamboyant Chelsea coach is 44 today. Despite an abundance of talent, Chelsea sits six points back of Manchester United, while Mourinho has had some clashes with management. He’s one of the world’s best coaches and may eventually find himself in charge of his country’s national team. But for now, he remains at Chelsea.
