It was Joe Sakic of the Colorado Avalanche. He doesn't play hockey anymore. Man, was he fun to watch.

 

[Hoofbite]

mine will always be Ken Griffey Jr. grew up watching him.

Jr. was a favorite of mine. I would call a home run ever at bat. 99% of the time I was wrong, but that 1%.......boy, I told you so.

Lionel Messi. Just amazing and humble.
Then you have Cristiano Ronaldo who is the opposite of humble but it works for him.

 

[Hardline]

Nolan Ryan.

I will never forget a catch he made in CF. A deep fly was hit towards dead center, really high. He picked up on it immediately and ran to the spot.....stood there facing the wall and caught it over his shoulder. All in one motion, he caught it and whipped around and threw the ball on a dime to home plate nailing the runner trying to tag up
