I think baseball has plenty of other options but these are pretty safe choices.

Gretzky definitely deserves to be there, he dominated his sport like no one else ever did.
>>
Brady just passed Joe with this latest Super Bowl

This 4 just looks perfect
>>
>>74274740
Why would Neymar deserve to be on an American monument? Did the zika fuck your brain up huezinho? The only soccer player who's name is worth mentioning would be Donovan but he didn't dominate like any of the 4 there. I don't know how you could suggest any soccer player really, when we're talking about a comparison to Mt. Rushmore, you know, the big ass mountainside carved into a monument of 4 American presidents in America.

Kinda means the requirements are being American (Canadians tolerated since our leagues are intertwined), playing in on of our leagues, and dominating them like no other.

Hell the only other sportsman with a legitimate claim to head and shoulders dominance is Don Bradman but hes Australian so disqualified.

>>74275606
MOUNT Rushmore is in America, so it makes sense to have American sports on it.

If their was a mural for sports all around the world only Brady and Jordan would get on it.
>>
>>74275665
Gretzky would still be on it
>>
>>74275665
Messi and Tsssuuuu as well
>>
>>74275665
The extent to which Gretzky dominated hockey has never been replicated in any other sport. Statistically, he's basically twice as good as anyone ever to have played the sport (e.g. you could take away all his goals - the most ever - and he'd still have more points (goals+assists) than anyone else).

Gretzky is probably the goat above all other goats

>>

Gretzky would still be on it as a 4th based on statistical separation from everyone in his sport
>>
>>74274517
Hard to value baseball because the pitcher and batters are extreme opposites. Like any other sport, the individual who scores the most is usual MVP. In baseball hard to decide what is worth more, the pitcher with 25 wins and a sub 2.00 era, or the batter with 50 HRs and 130 rbi

The point is that baseball does not appeal to young people, by and large. That fact upsets you. There's no reason to believe young people will suddenly take an interest in baseball as they get older. Baseball will be a niche sport in a few generations.

I'm not upset by it. You're the one upset by baseball for some unknown reason.

You're calling out baseball for something that is endemic in sports consumption, that being that the primary viewership is older than 40, and blatantly ignoring that it affects everything.
If single sport is to be called out for lacking youth interest, it would be golf, but you'll probably insist it's not a sport because 6'4" 25 year olds don't dominate it.

Love all these Gretzky fags. Dont even know that Orr is better than him in every way because they are all underage.

>B-BUT MUH PADDED STATS

I bet you think Peyton Manning is the best QB too

If it was a top 4 for all sports it would be:

Don Bradman
Wayne Gretzky
Aleksandr Karelin
Michael Phelps

These four are the most dominant athletes to have lived.

No one player has ever completely changed the landscape of the game like Ruth did. There have been a lot of amazing baseball players but the largest leap moving from superstar to superstar was when Babe showed up.
