Are there any genuinely positive role models in sports?

Seems like every golden boy or girl has something in their closet that would cause the nation to look at them in disgust. I knew about Manning's incident from college, but it seemed like a (mostly) harmless prank by an 18 year old kid. The rest of the story isn't good. Not sure if it's awful, but it does make me look at Manning differently.
The only two athletes that seem to be authentically good people are Drew Brees and Federer. I say that as a non-Saints fan.

The line about how he "maneuvered his testicles" gets me every time

Show me one thing Lebron has actually done wrong in his life?
Likely the only superstar in the 2000's that hasn't fricked up in anyway and his only career tarnishment will be deciding to go play in Miami.

i guess Smugerer can be a good role model sometimes.
nadal is a good model if you're considering butt picking and such

Charles Barkley told u morons a decade + ago, Athletes are not role models, so stop jocking them like they are, and shame on parents who make athletes role models for their kids.

This is a great point that I think a lot of people miss.

Tebow just put on a prom event for special needs kids. Set up one of the kids with a hot newscaster here that used to be a Dolphins cheerleader. Really cool
