Jim Thorpe

       Anyone that can run 9.4 in the 100 yards (that'd be lower today with better track and footware and perhaps a slightly better diet geared for it and vitamins etc., not to mention other more modern/scientific training aids) and play well at baseball and football in addition to being great at Pentathlon and Decathlon (implying FIELD ATHLETE capability as well as TRACK ATHLETE capability) would be tough to beat and his name alone implies versatility of greatness that few in the past 25 years (perhaps BO JACKSON in terms
of speed, power and BASEBALL/FOOTBALL) can approach much less exceed.
