DG_ThenNowForever Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Seattle: - Ken Griffey Jr - Gary Payton - Russell Wilson (in over Hassellback because of the Super Bowl. And because he's better.) - Greg the Hammer Valentine Kissing on Valentine (obviously), but there are plenty of good candidates for the fourth spot: Kasey Keller, Hope Solo, Marshawn Lynch, Steve Largent, Alex Rodriguez, Randy Johnson, Ichiro, Sue Bird, Shaun Alexander...

If there's going to be any Buck on the list, it'd probably be Oscar Robertson or Ray Allen. Even then, I'd be tempted to have a famed Marquette basketball player in over them (i.e. George Thompson - for his work with the team after his playing days, Bo Ellis, or even Dwayne Wade).

Besides, I doubt one in five Americans can actually name a single accomplishment of Teddy Roosevelt beyond being in Night at the Museum. And pettiness? How? I have no ill will from the fallout over his departure. I'm one of those who thought they should have held the number retirement years ago, just months after he left the Vikings. I have no bitterness at all. But I'm the end, he won one championship. Hutson and Starr can run laps around that. If we only have four spots, I can't give three to the Packers. And Favre, great as he was, just isn't in the top two. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From there, it feels like another Buc should be in there, and an obligatory Ray, but I don't really feel like Evan Longoria has had enough distinction in his career to be there, and if not him, then I can't think of another Ray who is that distinct. As for the Bucs, Warren Sapp certainly has the accoldates but he's also a renown dickhead. I'm hesitant to put any current Bucs or Bolts players in there because so much can still go wrong with a few of them, even if I'm ecstatic to have Jameis Winston as my QB at this moment in time. I dunno, I'll say Lee Roy Selmon and John Lynch for the remaining two spots. I'm not old enough to have seen Selmon, but he does have a highway cutting through Tampa named after him haha. I think Longoria would have to be up there, I think he's the first certainty the Rays have at retiring a number that actually played for them for more than retirement tour. I'm torn between Vinny and Marty though, Vinny was the franchise but Marty was the man, and more reliable. Brooks is a lock, one could argue Ronde, but I'd slot him in at like 6th of those listed above. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichO Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Chicago: Jordan, Payton, Butkus, Banks, Ditka. Whoever from the current Cubs core lasts longest probably bumps Ditka at some point. The Bears footprint is just too big to even let Pippen or any Blackhawk in there. The Mt. Rushmore of Keystone, SD: the actual Mt. Rushmore.

OnWis97 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 39 minutes ago, tigerslionspistonshabs said: Twin Cities: Kevin Garnett Fran Tarkenton Randy Moss Adrian Peterson Kirby Puckett I'd listed Bud Grant, Harmon Killebrew, Kirby Puckett, Kevin Garnett, Fran Tarkenton. If you don't want to include coaches, then Bud Grant can be nixed (he actually did play for the Minneapolis Lakers, though that's not why he's loved in Minnesota). But either way, I think Harmon Killebrew's got to be there. So we agree on KG, Tarkenton, and Puckett. That leaves a few other options (Cris Carter, Rod Carew, Alan Page) but I'll stick with my other one (Killebrew) and yours (Moss and Peterson. As I said, Killebrew's there. Moss vs. Peterson is a tough call. Gun to my head, I'd go with Moss because the 1998 offense was so explosive and fun and AP turns some people off with his fumbles and his brand of parental discipline.

Also, would George Mikan be worth consideration? I don't think so on Mikan. Certainly not based on the overall feelings of the fanbase. That's just getting to be too long ago. If some non-local panel of "sports guys" wanted to list the top five based on on-the-field/court play, he would get into the conversation and certainly the top 10. But I think much of what we've been talking about relates to how well liked they are in the town. While Tarkenton and Killebrew are before my time (and I'm 43), they resonate with younger folks better than Mikan. It's probably a combination of the fact that it was just that much longer ago and that the franchise left town.

He's still young. He could realistically leave after his contract is up in 2018 and end up playing for another team for a longer time than he was in Washington. Ryan Zimmerman should probably be mentioned. Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 For Washington, what about Walter Johnson? He was the Senators' only long-term star (and one of the greatest players ever, on top of that). I know he played a really long time ago, but I still think he's easily one of the four best athletes in DC sports history, no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
