All time favorite sports player and why?
Damn... it's like asking me who my favorite child is. Except I don't have a child.
Anyway... I'll go with one from the NFL, NBA, and MLB.
1) JOE MONTANA. The man. All he ever did was win. Will go down as the greatest quarterback to ever live and I loved the 49ers when he was at QB.
2) Ryne Sandberg. Many call Ernie Banks Mr. Cub and rightfully so. But to me, Ryne Sandberg was Mr. Cub. He was an awesome second basemen and the reason why I wanted to play second base when I started playing baseball. Ironically, I used the number 16 throughout my baseball career, which is Joe Montana's number.
3) Shaquille O'Neal. You won't find a bigger mark for Shaq in his early career than me. I had every shoe, jersey, poster, and figure he ever made. Even his stupid genie movie and his album, ShaqFu. Then he went to the Lakers. And I was THRILLED!
But overall... I'll say that Joe Montana is my all time favorite.
