On Saturday, Jordan's post about what his sports Mt. Rushmore would be got me thinking. He wanted to know who other people would choose for their mountains, but, since I write for the site and can do basically whatever I want, I decided, the hell with it. I'm making my own post. None of this comment section business for me.
Without further delay...
1. David Robinson - One of the all-time "good guys" in sports. Not to mention, the soon-to-be Hall of Famer could play ball. Would've been even better, far as championships are concerned, if it wasn't for some doofus named Mike.
2. Tim Duncan - Another one of the "good guys", but I love him because he dominates, and doesn't need to shout to do it. Excited when he needs to be, funny in private quarters, Duncan's boring as all hell, but he's the ideal athletic role model on the court, though maybe not the ideal personality off it for the media.
3. Derek Jeter - Come on. How could any Yankee fan near my age not put him here?
4. Warrick Dunn - Another "good guy", catching a theme here? Dunn's always been a favorite of mine as a Buccaneers fan. The fact that he's such a little guy that's had such a good career (one that will almost definitely be overlooked by future NFL fans) really stands out.

Being a HUGE Spurs fan myself, I love your top two picks. I could see Jeter on that list, but being a Giants fan, Will Clark would get my vote. Heck, Kirt Manwaring would make the list, but I realize how unrealistic that is.
