BBTV Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Few, if any, living Philadelphia sports fans know the first thing about Norm Van Brocklin. Not taking anything away from the guy but he wouldn’t be on any other one’s Rushmore.

Quote Cleveland: Larry Doby, Paul Brown, Jim Brown, Mark Price (or Omar Vizquel) I'd take Otto Graham over Paul Brown, and LeBron over Price. I don't think LeBron's departures from Cleveland should overshadow what he accomplished while there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s too big here to not be included. I’m honestly not sure who George Mikan is. I guess I’m vaguely familiar that he played with the Lakers? So I would put Herb Brooks over George Mikan. A lot of people know who Herbie is, idk if there’s many people who know who George Mikan is in Minnesota. The rest of the list is good tho. Joe Mauer and Mikko Koivu have a place somewhere in there as well. Koivu is the face of the Minnesota Wild, and Joe has been for the Twins for the last couple decades.

The problem with MN is that there really are no obvious choices and a whole lot of non-obvious ones. I'd say the following people all have a legitimate case to be on it, but I wouldn't be upset if any of them got left off: Mikan KG Flip Saunders Cheryl Reeve Lindsey Whalen Herbie Lou Nanne Doug Woog Krissy Wendell Bud Grant Fran Tarkenton AP Randy Moss Alan Page John Randal Randall McDaniel Harmon Killebrew Kirby Puckett Rod Carew Kent Hrbek Tony Oliva Joe Mauer Justin Morneau Tom Kelly Buzz Lagos I'm sure I reached for a few and forgot a few, but this is what I could come up with.

OnWis97 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 My gut reaction was that Minnesota needs hockey, too. But neither the North Stars nor Wild have ever had a superstar. Herb Brooks is probably the best option. Maybe Neal Broten, who played with the North Stars for most of his career, won the first ever Hobey Baker award at Minnesota, and was of course on the 1980 Olympic team. But honestly it feels like Puckett, Killebrew, Grant, and either KG or Miken.

You could even make an argument for Shaq and have all 4 as Lakers. Part of the reason I had Gretzky for LA was because of how his trade was credited for helping trigger hockey's popularity in Southern California. I had Deacon Jones at the beginning because I felt like I had to have somebody from the Rams on there. The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushmore since the 49ers wouldn't have won any Super Bowls had he not paved the way for Joe Montana. So I've got: Ken Anderson, Gabe Kapler, Pablo Sandoval, and (I'm not sure who he is but I like his name) Jonathan Cheechoo. I'd also consider Will Clark.
