White Sox hall of famer Frank Thomas should be considered on this list. The others that come to mind are Shaq, Manny Pacquiao, Emmitt Smith and Rafael Nadal.

Tiger Woods. Michael Jordan and Derek Jeter should be loved by all, but at the end of the day they are not friendly to the fans.

Tim Tebow. Absolutely beloved with a capital B by a lot of people. Is he a great football player? No. Is he a great baseball player? No. Would CNN and FOX broadcast his funeral live and shut everything else down anyone is talking about? Yep. Would he be mobbed in Times Square at 1 am? Yep. Would he great a huge ovation at a theater or boxing match or patriotic event. Yep. After he gives up the baseball thing can basically write his own ticket for the rest of his living doing whatever he pleases.

There's your winner. Bring on the haters. Line forms to the left. Be sure to take a number.

Has to be Tiger Woods. Just ask any porn star or hooker and they'll tell you the same.

Do you really think Tiger is beloved? I think he's probably the top golfer all time performance wise but beloved?

Ted -- Steve, Beautiful posts on Yogi Berra and his family.

Betty White might have been in jest, but she is just right there at the top of beloved television personalities.

Shaq is a great choice too; everyone loves Shaq.

This has been a swell thread--- a happy place. --- Brian Powell
