    I know! I would sit between Yogi and Shaq for sure! The stories and jokes would be endless!

    And I want Anna Kournikova to be the hostess at my dinner.

    Nobody was better for a quote than Yogi. Really, I should go back and put him on my list but I'll just leave it be as it is...but yeah, even though I hardly drink anymore, I would have to have a few beers and sit there with a grin on my face and just crack up.

    @BamaDawg - Nice thread. I almost started one the other day (since spring training is about to start) that asks: who would be your all-time top-5 starting rotation. Also, someone mentioned a request to change from GOAT to athletes we would like to have dinner with...I sorta agree because the GOAT label is highly debatable. I had a difficult time deciding this list, but had a great time putting it together. I could argue with an ashtray about who was best at each position/sport if I had to. Again, great thread.

    BTW - I met Nolan Ryan back when I was waiting tables at Del Frisco's in Fort Worth and asked him about the thing w/ Ventura and he did not like that one bit. Still tipped like a Hall of Famer, though. Kudos.

    Love the Boog Powell mention, and count me in on the pitching rotation thread.

    @AnotherDawg - I'm working on how to do it right, but it's coming soon since spring approaches. What are your thoughts? Should we restrict it to eras? For example, can you really put Walter Johnson in a rotation w/ Maddux who pitched during the steroid era? I'm open to all suggestion before prematurely starting the thread.

    And OH, BTW I completely forgot I also want to have BOTH Larry Munson, AND also Skip Caray there at that table too!!!! In each of their respective broadcast worlds, each of these two sports broadcasting legends gave me some of my VERY BEST MEMORIES EVER in my entire lifetime, that I continue to cherish to this very day (the recordings are all in my own head of course). However, I can STILL hear SO MANY of each of their "calls" of GREAT GEORGIA BULLDOGS, and The Atlanta Braves WINS too!!!

    Your call, but I wouldn't overthink it. Keeping it simple would generate the most responses and probably lead to good discussions about the very issues you're mentioning.

    Good stuff. Borg might make my list if I had a do-over.

    Can we change the list, so it’s just athletes, and not GOATS?

    The idea was your idea of GOATs to have dinner with. But you can put who u want.

    1. Mark Fydrich
    2. Mark Lemongello
    3. Lawrence Taylor
    4. Wilt Chamberlain
    5. Kareem Abdul Jabaar
    6. Ken Stabler
    7. Abdullah The Butcher
    8. Serena Williams (In my lap)
    9. Al Hrabosky
    10. Rickey Henderson
