I could not put Zidane on there because Pele is the face of the sport's history. The same went for football because there is no one player who is the obvious goat and face of the sport.

no he is not.. just no. Everyone knows, you have some of the younger generation who are bron or kobe fantards "try" to because they never saw mj play. But they dont even believe what they say. No debate

So what. Pele wasn't nearly the player Zidane was.

Only one I'd be sure about is Ripken. His record is the greatest in sports.

Lets not get carried away here. It's not like Zidane is the hands down GOAT.

Overall, Michael Jordan, Jim Thorpe, Willie Mays, and Wayne Gretsky. Personal would be Jerome Bettis, Tim Duncan, Chipper Jones, and Ricky Rudd.

Babe Ruth
Muhammad Ali
Michael Jordan
Jessie Owens

It's so hard to name just 4. I went for the men who changed not only sports but also the world and it's way we view it.

Jim Thorpe would be the unfinished Crazy Horse monument.

Ali

Jackie Robinson

Those three all have to be on it, IMO.

I have no idea on the 4th. Could argue a number of guys.

ETA: Jim Thorpe would be a great 4th.
