I have truly enjoyed the lists..They certainly do indicate age disparities....but then again...The forum is full of multi-generations here
I really had to think about this because I go back so many decades...But heres my list~~
Muhammad Ali (Cassius Clay) boxing....( I actually watched his fight with Joe Frazer 1971) Billie Jean King ( tennis) admired her feistiness dealing with gender superiority Bobby Orr ( hockey sensation) but for purely personal reasons was a school mate of one of my fellow nursing students and visited Parry Sound hometown of B.O. Often!!) Johnny Bower ( Hockey/Maple Leaf's goalie) who was one of the best goalies of his age..who never wore a mask..and his face showed every scar! Magic Johnson ( basketball talents and advocacy for aides) was truly an inspiration to me due to my chosen career of HC as he truly shawn a light on it!
