This all day. "Top athletes" is so subjective that there are dozens (if not hundreds) of names that could legit be on that list. And the five he listed are definitely among them. And I think the most rewarding (and inspiring) part of it is that he left himself off the list knowing darn good and well he is 100% a legit choice.

He hit a low point several years ago as a young man that was unfortunately all too public due to his situation. Since that low point he has done nothing but impress me as a man and a player both on and off the field. I would absolutely LOVE the chance to sit and talk about football (or anything else) with him over a cold beverage or two of his choice.
