No. 91 | Sergei Fedorov
Lightning-fast and versatile (he can play center, wing and the backline),
Federov was the leading Russian import of the `90s,
scoring 30-plus goals 10 times and winning three Stanley Cups with Detroit,
plus the Hart Trophy as 1993-94 MVP and the Selke twice as best defensive forward.
Runner-up : Dennis Rodman.
Worthy of consideration : Kevin Greene.
No. 92 | Reggie White
The Minister of Defense was an ordained man of the cloth but a merciless pass-rusher.
A two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year (1987, '98),
he played in a record 13 straight Pro Bowls
and retired in 2000 as the NFL's all-time sacks leader (198), a mark since broken.
Runner-up : Michael Strahan
No. 93 | Doug Gilmour
A small, feisty defensive forward nicknamed "Killer" for his intensity,
Gilmour scored the Stanley Cup-winning goal for Calgary in 1989
and later pulled of the unusual feat of winning best defensive forward honors
while scoring 127 points for Toronto in 1992-93.
Runner-up : John Randle.
No. 94 | Charles Haley
The five-time Pro Bowl pick was a pass-rush force from the linebacker
and defensive end spots from 1986-99
and is the only five-time Super Bowl-winner
(three with Dallas, two with San Francisco).
Runner-up : Dana Stubblefield.
Dent was a central figure on the Bears' 46 defense (he played defensive end)
that ate the NFL whole in 1985.
That year he led the league with 17 sacks and earned Super Bowl XX MVP honors.
Runner-up : Bubba Smith (Michigan State).
No. 96 | Cortez Kennedy
A mountain of a man (6-3, 306) who could really motor,
the seven-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle spent his entire
11-year career with the Seattle Seahawks,
winning 1992 NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors.
Runner-up : Pavel Bure.
Worthy of consideration : Bill Voiselle.
The speedy 6-5, 266-pound defensive end has been
one of the NFL's elite pass-rushers since 1999.
Rice has recorded 10 or more sacks in eight seasons
and had an MVP-caliber performance for the Buccaneers in Super Bowl XXXVII.
Worthy of consideration : Cornelius Bennett, Jeremy Roenick.
No. 98 | Tom Harmon
Nicknamed "Old 98" during his Michigan glory years,
Harmon was the Wolverines' first Heisman-winner (1940).
Drafted first overall by the Bears in 1941, he opted for an acting career
and a stint in the Army Air Force.
Son Mark (former UCLA quarterback) followed in both family businesses.
Runner-up : Tony Siragusa.
The Great One owns 61 NHL scoring records,
among them career goals (1,016 including playoffs) and points (3,238),
plus 10 scoring titles, nine Hart trophies (MVP) and four Stanley Cups.
Convinced yet?
Runner-up : George Mikan.
Worthy of consideration : Warren Sapp,
Rick Vaughn (Charlie Sheen in Major League).
My Comment : 드디어 마쳤습니다. 그나마 제일 마지막 등번호들은 NHL 스타들이 있군요.
그 중에서도 역시 레전드 중의 레전드!
웨인 그레츠키가 제일 마지막 번호인 99번을 장식했습니다.
마이클 조던의 설명에 'Any Question?'이 있었던 것 처럼
웨인 그레츠키에 대한 설명에도 'Convincet Yet?'이라는 역설적인 문구가 있군요.
마지막까지 보신 분들 대부분 생각하시겠지만 CNNSI의 이번 선정은
정말 너무나도 미국적인 판단에 근거한 거 같습니다.
종목별 안배같은 기준도 없고 근현대에 대한 충분한 고찰도 부족한 것 같구요.
철처하게 미국인들만이 좋아하는 미식축구에 큰 비중을 두고
다른 종목의 레전드 들이 되려 찬밥 신세가 되어버린 느낌이 드는군요.ㅋㅋ
