For example, I'm reppin Philly and mine are

Basketball: Wilt Chamberlain or Kobe

Baseball: Reggie Jackson

Miscellaneous: Smokin Joe Frazier

basketball- Eddie Jones

baseball- Alex Rodriguez

misc- Chris Evert

hmmm...Chris Evert? She was born in Ft. Lauderdale, technically.

 

I wonder if we can do better than Eddie Jones in basketball.

 

Or better in football even.

yeah... like i said ill go with Udonis :lol

 

eddie's from Broward actually but close enough. i like eddie jones, dont get me wrong but i hated him and that contract (its not my money but it f***ed us up with the cap) and i do like Haslem more.

I'd still give Eddie the edge, based on his longevity and versatility, including his great defense.

Roswell/Alpharetta/Marrietta, GA

Football: Jermaine Phillips

Baseball: Todd Jones/Jeremy Hermida

basketball: Shareef Abdur-Rahim

other: The Armstrong family of wrestlers...

as far as baseball goes...Marietta is home to East Cobb Baseball...MANY MLB players have played there I belive including Hermida. Marietta seems to be a baseball/basketball/and football hotbed for some reason.

Davenport, IA

 

NFL: Roger Craig

NBA: Ricky Davis

UFC: Pat Miletich

Boxing: Michael Nunn (lol)

I agree.

Wrestling: Kurt Angle (Bruno Sammartino was born in Italy and could thus not be included)
