Mt. Rushmore of Sports (New York)

I will write every name that is put on this board and bring it to the bar for the super bowl and have people pick 4 names and let you know the outcome.

So you want this to be a vote for a statue or for the best players from that area.

Best players with the biggest impact. I guess my question would be: Name your 4 biggest Sports Icons from New York?

I would think Jeter would be on any list no matter how it is phrased.

[wayne1218]

I wouldn't be shocked if LT made the list. He is the most dominating player I personally have ever seen in the NFL, at any position!

Ok, You guys have me really wondering now about my Jeter choice. I'm shocked that nobody else has said his name!

[gizmo]

no one that is still playing is getting a statue in NY is my opinion

[wayne1218]

What about Eli "2 SB Rings" Manning?

As a Sox fan it's hard pleading this much for Jeter Love but man, I feel like he would be there!

[wayne1218]

gizmo, Serious question. What about somebody like G. Steinbrenner? Isn't he a pretty big Icon in NY?

[KazDog]

A guy who should at least be in the discussion. The highest percentage of votes for the Hall of Fame of all time at 98.84%, at least in the top 5 pitchers of all time and possibly the greatest Met of all time....Tom Seaver.

[jcindaville]

Stephon Marbury
Eddie Curry
Mark Sanchez
Gay Rod

[meaiken]

Mark Sanchez
Allen Houston
Steve Howe
Kerry Collins

[meaiken]

I would think you would want one from each sport

Babe Ruth
Joe Namath
Patrick Ewing
Mark messier

[gizmo]

Tom Seaver is the greatest Met and that just shows you that the Mets suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Seaver was awesome but he played for 4 teams and I think in a few years David Wright will be the greatest Met.

Steinbrenner almost ruined them for a 10 year period and wasnt even allowed in the baseball operations for a few years. Would you rather have a statue of Kraft or Brady.
