Great topic Bill!
My four are, in no particular order: Jackie Robinson, Oscar Robertson, Jim Thorpe, and Gordie Howe. Each player stands on their own merit, and has their place in history in their respective sport. Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in MLB. Oscar Robertson is the only player in the NBA to average a triple double for a season, and has a trophy named after him given to the top college player by the US Basketball Writers Association. Jim Thorpe has been recognized as the greatest athlete of the 20th Century. He won 2 gold medals in the olympics ( pentathlon and decathlon ) and played professional football, baseball, and basketball. Gordie Howe is the " Babe Ruth " of hockey.
