    i was a Giants fan, Namath was respected in our house but not loved. We suffered thru the 70's with Morton and Snead and Goldsteyn and Pisarcik.

    Can't go wrong with Willis, Frazier, Bradley, Barnett or Cazzie from the 69-70 team.

    Frank Mahovlich. Even when he played for the Habs, he was still my favourite.

    Not kidding.
    When he was a good guy.
    When he was NWA champion.
    (Not WCW; Not WWF or WWE).
    So I guess this is early/middle 80s.
    I just found him so fascinating:
    Ric Flair

    (If I was really going with a farce choice, I'd go with Ralphie Valladares)

    Athletes in sports not predetermined:
    Don't want to discard one, so …
    Hank Aaron
    Muhammad Ali
