I can't shave it to just 10. Here's as low as I go. In no order at all.....

Chris Spielman
Merton Hanks
Steve Young

Tony Boselli
Randy Moss
Peyton Manning
Andrew Luck
Jon Jones
Roy Nelson
Julius Erving
Kevin Durant
David Robinson
John Kruk
Pete Rose
Willie Stargell
Cale Yarborough

In no particular order,

Brian Scalabrine - GOAT imo
Michael Jordan - Would be the GOAT if not for scalabrine
John Stockton - him and Malone would have won multiple championships if not for Jordan
Karl Malone - see above
Kevin Durant - Probably the most humble superstar in the NBA. Had an amazing series in the finals, just got sidelined by the officials. Was even fouled on a game tying shot in the finals (which wasn't called), and didn't even say one bad word about the officials, just took responsibility for not making it even though he was fouled.
Russell Westbrook - The most athletic PG to ever play in the NBA, and a beast at just 24 years old. Love to watch him play. He's a beast on defense, unstoppable when attacking the rim, and has a nice pull up jumper to go with all of that. He's finally started becoming a great passer too.
Derrick Thomas - What can I even say about this guy. One of the best pass rushers of all time. Von Miller and Ware remind me a lot of him.
Tony Gonzalez - GOAT
Jamaal Charles - I'd love to watch this guy more if our team had a good QB so that the defense didn't know when we were going to run it everytime.
Priest Holmes - His 27 TD season was incredible. Wish the guy would have had more prime years, so fun to watch.

9. Chris Duhon
10. Brian Jordan

This was really tough. Grant Hill and T.O. were easy for me, though. Funny how they're almost complete opposites as far as character and personality goes. I love Carpenter's competitiveness and intensity. Never had seen that in a baseball player before Carp. Nolan Smith is my favorite Duke player of all-time... amazing dude. Frank Gore, all heart and still doing it. Malcolm Jenkins was what a student-athlete is supposed to be, IMO. And he was a phenomenal football player with no weaknesses (in college). Merton Hanks was just a playmaker and of course had the chicken dance. Chris Duhon personified toughness and embodied what Duke was. Brian Jordan was my favorite athlete when I was a kid. I remember that all black outfield with him, Ron Gant and Ray Lankford.

Albert Pujols was my favorite for a while but since he stabbed my Cardinals in the back he can go to hell. He's dead to me.
