    Not Bills Related But Just For Fun and this is the forum for that

    Who is one of your all time favorite athletes?

    It can be any sport and any team doesn't have to be Buffalo related or it certainly can be.


    Mine is Ernie Banks of the Chicago Cubs he just brought the love of the game to all of us that had the privilege of watching him play.

    Famous for saying lets play two ....

    The Ambassador of Baseball ........... In my opinion.

    Former President Donald Trump early Thursday touted the results of a new NPR/PBSNewsHour/Marist poll showing him ahead of President Joe Biden by 8 percentage points among independents.

      MJ.

      Was his personal driver for 10 years every time he came out to his house out in Utah. "His Airness" was fitting for him. He sold his house a few years ago. Never met anyone like him before or since.

            I'm still thinking about this guy.
            Please include broadcasters if there's anybody special enough to you.
            I also enjoyed Curt Gowdy's voice.

                It’s cliche but Michael Jordan is probably my favorite athlete of all time. I worshipped him growing up- t shirts, posters, the full 9. I have a pair of Jordan sneakers that I got last Christmas. Awesome that you actually met/kinda knew him. I barely even watch basketball anymore cuz it’s just not the same for me without him.

                Bruce is my favorite football player growing up.

                I was never a Phillies fan but my family is originally from that area and I really liked Mike Schmidt as a kid.

                I always liked Hershiser as a kid. I remember being young and watching him pitch in the World Series.

                  1. Jim Thorpe

                  Olympic Gold Medalist in the Pentathlon and Decathlon

                  Professional football, baseball and basketball player.

                  Maybe the best all around athlete ever.

                  And a true diamond in the rough story.

                  2. Haile Gebrselassie

                  Because I'm a distance runner and he dominated and revolutionized the sport, holding world records at one point from 5k all the way up to the Marathon. There has been no one like him since.

                          Kind of knew him is right. He didn't even ever know my name, but he would pick me out everytime in a lineup of cars for he and his entourage off of his jet. Most awesome private jet btw (2nd is owned by Baltimore's Kevin Plank). Called me bud. My biggest tipper over the years, but we never really talked., He liked to go fast, and I was good at that. He either jumped in my car or he put his wife and kids with me. Calm, warm dude with unflappable confidence. Not arrogance. Didn't looked to impress nobody, because he was already at the top. Appreciative to the hired help. Good guy for any fan to admire imo. But he wasn't a saint. I was a witness to that.
