    I liked Cecil Fielder & Barry Sanders growing up. But I don't really have favorite athletes really. They are all just entertainers. If they do their jobs well then my team gets a championship. If not... oh well. I don't have anything invested in them beyond that.

        I agree but to tick Sloww and Ben off, here's my list:

        Randy Moss
        Terrell Owens
        Deion Sanders
        Keyshawn Johnson
        Allen Iverson

            Although, you have to understand, that I was a pre-teen and a teenager when those guys were in their primes so they did have an affect on my generation and those younger. To us, we expect sports stars to be divas, so it doesn't bother us one bit when they are. We grew up in the era of "I play when I wanna play, do what I wanna do", "Just give me the damn ball", "We're talking about practice", etc. Old timers can't stand it, I guess, but to us, it comes with the game.
