What do you guys think about this? Any picks? Anyone left off from your state that you think belongs?
For Michigan I'd say Barry Sanders def belongs but he's also on the Kansas ballot which makes me wonder why Magic Johnson isn't on Michigans list as well.
I like Indiana's a lot but hard for me to vote for them because 1/2 of them are coaches.
Still undecided on who I'd vote for overall. -
NY by a wide margin

Not that I looked through the list in detail but South Dakota's includes Brock Lesnar...Rhode Islands includes Rocco Baldelli...and Kareem Abdjul Jabbar is no where to be found? and Tim Tebow is on the Florida list...
This was a huge waste imo. -
Hard not to think Mass is #1. Could put Russell or Bird in there for Auerbach too. Obvi Auerbach is the Godfather of Boston Basketball, so hard to complain. Dont forget Ruth played for the Sox too.
-
They should have made the trends more consistent. Either by native of that state or where they played ie: more prominent roll was.
Easiest way would be the natives of that state. Some players were associated with two states. -
LMAO gets even better,
Emmitt Smith, Roy Jones Jr., Steve Carlton, Dwight Gooden, Michael Irvin, Ray Lewis all from Florida...
apparently all less worthy than Tim Tebow. -
TIM TEBOW?! lol are you fucking kidding me? what a joke
edit - mk, add deon to that list -
Cali pwns just like in real life.
-
Ship it to VT obv...
-
this is a joke list since some rep 2 states.
-
Sure I'm a homer...but Louisiana is just a little bit sick.
Bradshaw, Maravich, Shaq and Bill Russell ftw. -
Illinois....
Michael Jordan, Walter Payton, Ernie Banks, Mike Ditka -
NY is the hugest but wisconsin was big too
-
Ok so on that list apparently (havent really looked hard going from my skimming and other peoples accounts) you don't have:
Arguably the best QB in NFL history in Montana, arguably the best NBA player ever in Kareem, the NFL all time leading rusher in Smith, a two sports not only athelte but star in Deion Sanders, Probably a top 10 WR all time in Michael Irvin, one of the most dominate LBer's in NFL history in Ray Lewis...
Yet you have Brock Lesnar, Tim Tebow and Rocco Baldelli...and a WHOLE bunch of guys representing 2 states.
Good work ESPN... -
Indiana by a long shot... 3 legends and the best quarterback in the nfl right now
-
Mississippi is SICK:
1. Jerry Rice
2. Walter Payton
3. Brett Favre
4. Archie Manning -
I love that Todd Helton made the CO list. <3 Helton. But the winner is obv Cali.
