Jim Brown

Jim Brown was a powerhouse on the field, to say the least. His physicality can be seen in the below photo, these tough NY Giants defenders are having quite a tough time bringing Jim down. Jim Brown is not only considered the greatest Cleveland Browns player of all time, but he is also widely regarded as the best running back in NFL history. Although, we have to admit that he hasn’t had much competition with the lacking roster the Browns seem to have every year. The future Hall of Famer was also a standout guard on the basketball team, an All-American lacrosse player, and member of the track-and-field team at Syracuse University.

Wilt Chamberlain

Wilt Chamberlain earned himself the nickname “The Stilt” for his towering frame and for his athletic ability. Wilt holds the record for most rebounds in an NBA career with a whopping 23,924. He is also the only NBA’er to ever score 100 points in a game, but too bad there’s no video footage to show it. Despite all of his achievements, Wilt has surprisingly only won 2 NBA championships. Many fans and past players attribute this to his “softness” on the court and his unfocused nature.
