Default Who does the Brandi Chastain HOF plaque look like?

This has to be the worst plaque ever. It's for the Bay Area Sports HOF. She's quotes as saying "I thought it was Babe Ruth." I think it looks like John Elway. What do you think???

Any plaque of her should include that sports bra.

That would be Ron Howard's younger brother Clint. Also known for "Rock 'n' Roll High School", 'Cocoon' and 'Tango and Cash' among his 240+ film and screen credits.

Gary Busey was also my first thought, along with Val Kilmer as he looks these days.

Clint Howard has been in a lot of stuff.

He deserves a bronze plaque.
