One approach is to honor great players who were also great people. If I were taking my son to Mt Sportsmore, I'd want to be able to tell stories that showcased character rather than just athletic talent. Some candidates--
Jackie Robinson - racial justice Roberto Clemente - humanitarian LeBron James - sending thousands of kids to college and funding GEDs for their parents Bob Feller - First to enlist after Pearl Harbor Muhammad Ali - Protested unjust war I would rather my son see these guys as heroes than Jordan or Brady, guys I see who used their fame and wealth to buy toys and feed their egos.
