Eddie Murray (the O, not the Lion), Bo, Frank Thomas, Darrell Green, Randall Cunningham, 23, Dream (I even had his signature Etonics :russ:), Glide.

Now, I tend to root for the laundry, so no real fave...I guess the closest would be Machado, but I'm already resigned to his exit in a couple years. :mjcry:

If I had to narrow down NFL favorites it was Deion and Barry Sanders

NBA would be Allen Iverson and Paul Pierce with Dwayne Wade being one that came along later

Don't really have a fav anymore in the NFL before it was Ed Reed and Ray Lewis also Anquan Boldin but they on the way out or already out.

I'm 30 BTW
