"WNBA player: "The media. Whenever a white guy looks like he could be really good, he's the next Larry Bird. Whenever a black guy looks like he's going to be really good, he's the next Michael Jordan. It's subtle, but that stuff matters."

The media does code it up between white and black athletes, but as far as public image, I actually think black athletes are in a good place right now, solid B or B+. dudes aren't c00ning or gooning it up like they used to, not as many wild incidents or ambivalent flashiness, and I guess since fashion trends have changed, guys no longer look like "thugs" in their pressers...

I also think the Williams sisters should be mentioned as influential, at least I hope in 10 years when a survey like this is done, they're mentioned.

thats a really good point. Their impact wont be felt when US tennis is in a true shyt storm because they are both gone (which it is now, but since Serena is killing, no one is talking about it much).
