Lets try to have one change on the list, I know some of the states are uber skimpy on talent hence why its only least 1.

The regions is based off the map on wikipedia breaking the regions up into 9 different regions.

Pacific West Region

Oregon-Kevin Love

Oregon was kinda of skimpy on the talent

WA- John Elway

This one was a little tougher because there are about 4 really good athletes in Wa so if theres going to be a change I can seethis being the change

AK-Curt Schilling is mine, although I must say Montana had a nice list of people if i recall anyways im sure the other sections of the US will be more helpful

HI-Bj Penn again kinda skimpy, would bean awesome state for hottest women though

CA- This is the state where the most likely change will come from

Im going with Tiger Woods as my Cali guy, this state will be what is your cup of tea because it has a couple of the greatest boxers, baseball players, and football players ever.

Good Luck whoever takes the TD

John Elway is a lovable loser yet he has 2 Sbs to 0 Nba titles to Stockton.. hard to fathom that hes the loser of the group.

Not to mention Elway is considered one of the greatest qbs ever. Sure he had some heartbreaking moments in getting Crushed in the Superbowl but he still won 2.

He took his team to 5 Sbs, and the QB unlike the PG makes or breaks their team.

How many NBA Finals did Stockton go to with Malone.

Elway does own a record, its the most rushing tds by a qb in the SuperBowls.

Elway apologizes hes played in the same era as Young, Montana, Marino, Kelly along with his peers after him.

When you think of the 5 greatest qbs ever Elway pops into your mind, but when you think of the 5 greatest Pgs of all time Stockton might not.

As for Danny Ainge 11.8 ppg in his career, 1X all star, yea bring out those stats because Kevin Love has been in the NBA for 2 years and has already tied Ainge for All Star appearances or are you going to talk about Ainges championships that he got riding Bird and MChales coat tails.

If its titles your after then your Stockton to Elway arguement holds no water with it being 2-0 same with Ainge and Love

Dont really see how him being an athlete has to do with him bringing over Allen and Garnett.

I would tribute that too him being buddies with Kevin Mchale.

He might have been one of the better 7th men in his life but hes not the best athlete from Oregon.

Even after only 2 years, hes already tied Ainge in All Star Appearanes and will soon pass him in All NBa Teams

You wont get much of an arguement from me on Ted Williams, one of the finest baseball players ever, hit for power and speed.

California was a deep state with some of the best athletes from their prespective sports but I had to go with the most DOMINANT golfer of his time and maybe ever Tiger Woods.

No one has done what he has done in such a short time. Basically holding every record that can be held and hes still got 10 plus years left in him.

Tiger Woods is EITHER the 1st or 2nd greatest golfer EVER, I dont think you can go wrong with a number of Cali athletes so not much of an arguement

You know why Elway may not be at the top of everyones list, its because of this

Favre, Marino, Young, Montana, Manning, Brady, Unitas, Starr, Tark, Fouts

Everyone knows great qbs go deeper than great pgs
