As for football, I think Brady will end up as a near-consensus GOAT, although interestingly USA Today just recently ranked him 2nd, behind Jerry Rice.
Most beloved would probably have to be someone with all of the following characteristics:

overtly patriotic but not partisan
no real scandal or skeletons in the closet
probably overcame some great personal hardship
probably some underdog story about making it to the top
preaches self-reliance and
has an affable personality
