People's lists of their all-time favorite player in each sport have been bouncing around social media over the past week. I'll play.
NFL: Alan Page/Cris Carter
NCAAF: Joe Roth
NBA: Larry Bird
NCAAB: Bill Russell
MLB: Andre Dawson
NHL: Mario Lemeiux
Soccer: Pele
Wrestling: Dan Gable
Boxing: Joe Louis
That was fun but picking my all-time favorite football players at each position group is more fun. For that I prefer to do two lists. Vikings and non-Vikings. Doing a combined list would be stupid since it would be all Vikings.
Vikings Favorites
QB: Fran Tarkenton
RB: Adrian Peterson
WR: Cris Carter
TE: Steve Jordan
OL: Randall McDaniel
DL: Alan Page
LB: Matt Blair
CB: Antoine Winfield
S: Harrison Smith
K: Fred Cox
P: Greg Coleman
Coach: Bud Grant
Non-Vikings Favorites
QB: Dutch Clark
RB: Jim Brown
WR: Jerry Rice
TE: John Mackey
OL: Jim Parker
DL: Gino Marchetti
LB: Lawrence Taylor
CB: Night Train Lane
S: Ed Reed
K: Glenn Presnell
P: Ray Guy
Coach: Paul Brown
3 Colts and I didn't have Johnny Unitas. But I like Dutch Clark so damn much even though he was a single wing quarterback.
Fun stuff.
