The Garden of Heroes in Fives: Part I

Trump had a great idea at Mount Rushmore, a Garden of American Heroes. We like this so much, all week will be submitting nominees on this blog. 

Let's start off with a fun category: Sports.

Jim Thorpe: The first great athlete, he excelled at multiple sports.
Babe Ruth: The greatest athlete of the 20th century. Ruth has his own adjective. He clubbed 714 homeruns and he could pitch too.
Jesse Owens: Won multiple Olympic medals on enemy territory (was tempted to go with Jackie Robinson, obviously, but we think Jesse Owens is just a little bit greater.) 
Mohamed Ali: The greatest fighter ever who took a stand and paid his dues. In America, you get a second chance (suck it, Kaepernick)
Michael Jordan: The only one of these athletes we've ever seen. People who say Lebron is better should try 90's era basketball.

Submit in comments, people.
