I say Jim Thorpe. As my reason for voting 'other'. The guy played pro football, baseball, basketball, won the gold medal in the pentathlon and decathlon in the Stockholm games. Stories about this guy are just amazing. He made the NFL what it is today. Thorpe started and popularized American football.
