Without doubt, when it comes to football, in the SF Bay area it’s “Joe Cool”.

I’d go with Cal Ripken Jr. while Brooks Robinson Is more beloved in the Maryland area as Mr. Oriole on the national level Cal is beloved all over, and is a great genuine person.

No offense but Ripkin couldn’t be picked out of a lineup by 99.999% of Americans. Baseball fans will remember his record. Most people won’t.
Would have been Ali before he died. He was on a separate realm. Today could be Shaq due to his size and uniqueness. Think about all the publicity when Ali died. CNN broadcast his funeral for hours. Do you think Bobby Orr or Cal Ripken are even in the same celebrity universe as that. Nope. By that standard might well be Tiger Woods. He won some tournament last week I never heard of and it was massive news. Last edited by Snapolit1; 11-07-2019 at 07:14 AM. |

We've lost a lot of truly beloved legends, of late. Bart Starr, Stan Musial, Ernie Banks.
Brett Favre's back on the adored list in Wisconsin. Hank Aaron's way up there. Robin Yount, too. Bob Uecker is pretty loved nationally, up there with Vin Scully. Ueck used to go on Carson a heck of a lot. Don't overlook how adored Roger Staubach is in Texas, and elsewhere.
