Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Alan Page + Adrian Pederson - Ted Williams + Dustin Pedroia + Chuck Long + Any RB who stays at Iowa for 4 years. + Ronnie Lott - I never liked the Trojans OR the 49ers, but this guy impressed me every time I saw him play. A "real" football player.

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Minnesota Vikings - Boston Red Sox - Iowa Hawkeyes

  • Favorite Coaches

    Bud Grant - Hayden Fry

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    1975 World Series Game 6 - Carlton Fisk Walk Off HR (What a GREAT game, what a great series!)

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    1991 World Series Game 6 - Twins/Braves - Kirby Puckett - BOTH a game/series saving catch and walk off HR. (Jack Buck: "And we'll see you tomorrow night!"

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Cy Young winning 511 games - no other record even compares.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth - Best baseball player EVER. Mays was beautiful to watch, but what other left handed pitcher has hit 714 HR's? C'mon!

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Tarvaris Jackson, no wait ... Scott Mitchell ... no wait ... JaMarcus Russell ... no wait ...

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Wilt Chamerlain - the only individual player whose performance caused the NBA to change it's rules.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Apples/Oranges. Gretsky was a Center while Orr was a Defenseman.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Pele - You've GOT to be good to make America actually pay attention to "Futbol."

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Venus Williams (was there EVER a tennis player who, when they were "on," could simply destroy the competition so completely as this girl?

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Nicklaus - if you're under 40 you'll never know how great Jack was - he played against and regularly defeated 3 of the Top 7, and 6 of the Top 15 All time Major Champions while in their "prime." (Player-9, Watson-8, Palmer-7, Trevino-6, Ballesteros-5, Floyd-4 ) Tiger has only competed against 1 (Phil with 4). Jack won 18 Majors and was runner up NINETEEN times! I seriously doubt Tiger will be able to match THIRTY SEVEN Top 2 finishes in the Majors (and he's not playing the competition Jack did!)

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Junior Johnson - there wouldn't BE Petty or Earnhardt without Junior.

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    I have no idea or interest.

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    Depends on the year which is best ... but I'm a BIG TEN man!!! Go B1G!
