Yes, but not for cliched Tarantino-related reasons which is typical of white people (not your fault). Think Menace To Society, Juice, Fresh, etc.

This was suppose to be a fun thread. I'm sorry Jbills had to expose himself as a racist.

Good calls on Rickey Henderson and Michael Jordan.

Willie Mays Hayes belongs too. Also Griffey.

Gotta get with Panther on this one. Jim Kelly was cool. But then Richard Roundtree has to be included.

And Dolphin has a point about the 70's as well. Movies, sports, music, it was a wildly different/cooler time.

If you have Richard Roundtree on that list, then Ima need to see Jim Brown there, too. Not to mention:

I'm so old, I remember going to see that at the Hamilton theatre on 71st and Paxton as a kid. And Sheba Baby.

I still can't believe my parents took me to see Dolemite there as well. :lol:

James was, until he went full cornball with Nixon and then Rocky 4 (?)

And Ali is understood. G.O.A.T. started with him.

I still remember rushing his Cadillac in the 1975? Bud Biliken parade. And him laughing with us.

Jim Brown > James Brown.

In the Sports Sleepers Category, you can't forget BabyFrank.

This dude has a cool name. Never lived up to expectations, but Hawk always pronounced his name real cool like.

Bo Jackson and Rickey Henderson are the correct answers.

Dave Parker and Andre Dawson could be in the team picture.

Dave Henderson over Rickey? get that weak shit out of here.

I wonder how Sosa would do in the Cool Salmon Guys Power Rankings. He's gotta be right up there.
