I am surprised at the lack of mention for Sammy Baugh, and especially George Mikan and Don Hutson? In football, the offensive linemen seem to be getting short shrift, Munoz and Hannah come to mymind.
I agree that Boston has been very lucky. Boston: take your pick of MLB: Grove or Williams or Pedro. NBA: Bird or Cousy or Russell. NHL: Orr. NFL: Hannah. I think Hannah is a very defensible pick to round out the Boston grouping.
Milwaukee/Wisconsin: Hutson, Big O (does he have to be Cincy--if he does I'd pair him with Munoz from the NFL), Aaron, NHL:?
Philly is pretty good with Grove or Foxx, Reggie White, Wilt. Hockey's a problem, I think.
Chicago: NBA: MJ, NFL: Payton or Butkus, NHL: Hull, MLB?
Pittsburgh: MLB: Wagner, NFL: Mean Joe Greee, NHL: Lemieux, NBA?
How about schools: UNC had LT and MJ. USF had Russell and Marchetti. Anyplace else have two or more?
Detroit does well with MLB: Cobb, NFL: Sanders/Night Train Lane, NHL: and Howe but I agree that Isaiah is not top 10 for the NBA.
