Pittsburgh Sports Mount Rushmore

I choose one player from each team. So three. You can do four if you want.

In no particular order:

Mario
Joe Greene
Clemente

Who do you have? My cousin said Big Ben would go over Crosby. Which might be far fetched.

 

Can't disagree with those three for sure. Don't know how many folks will remember Roberto, to quote the great Bob Prince, he was the Great One.

 

Agree, you can add Lambert or Stargell as a fourth.

 

The Clemente museum is worth visiting and very informative

 

How about Connie Hawkins.

 

As I sit here with a 21 tee shirt on....showing my age I guess

 

Only one per sport and Crosby is no where near Mario

 

Mario
Bradshaw
Clemente

 

I’d go with Greene but Bradshaw would be my number two

 

Those would be my 3 also, to add a fourth from the Pittsburgh Panthers I would pick Tony Dorsett.

 

Remember my dad waking me up and telling me
Not sure
But
Think I was 8 or 9
Broke my heart

 

Mean Joe
Mario
Stargell


Of you are only doing 3, and has to be 1 from each sport, these 3.
If doing a true Mt. Rushmore with 4, those 3 plus Bradshaw.

 

Why one per sport?

 

OP

 

OP says each team, not each sport, so Hanratty's choice of Dorsett would work.

 

Arnold Palmer could be considered even though he didn't play a team sport. He had an incredible run in the 1960's as the greatest golfer in the world.

 

Not when you read the entire OP. It says 'each team'. Then it says 'so three'. This would lead one to believe it means Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates. The 'you can do 4 if you want' is open to interpretation. Dorsett works. Palmer works. Many would work as the 4th of you put more than 3.

Tough one for Steelers

Pittsburgh only has 3 Pro teams but we did have an ABA team who won the Burgh's only BB Championship so we'll put Connie Hawkins up there.

 

The Chief
Super Mario
The Flying Dutchman
The King

 

He be my number 4. I got Greene , Blunt, and Polamalu, before Him.

 

He is a great Pittsburgh actor. I have always wondered if He was a Steelers fan, or if he was too quirky to even like sports.

 

Damn Honus Wagner that's going deep.

 

If we are just doing Pittsburgh overall I would say

Mario
Mean Joe
Roberto
Sid assuming he plays a few more years at a decent level he will be a top 5 all time player.

Troy Bradshaw Willie would be the next ones if you wanted to argue Sid. The first 3 I think are no brainers.

 

Of course you have 2 secondary players. I wouldn’t put Blunt in top 4.
