Can we also change our logo to something more minor league? Perhaps a left hand scrawl of Ohio Chatter?

Here is a list of the most famous person born in each county. Based on this I would go with John Holmes, Scott Hamilton, Phyllis Diller, and Bob Evans.

I don't think this should be sports based, I am going with:

Gibwok
Mothman
Pizza in a skillet
A crouton

If I were doing a serious list and it didn't have to be sports based I would do:

Neil Armstrong (most obvious choice, IMO)
Jack Nicklaus
Jesse Owens
Barry Larkin (homer pick)

I met Bob several times while at Rio Grande. His son is married to a local Jackson lady....he's always around town. Steve Evans (as in the sausage)

What an interesting list! Great reading.

FWIW - Bobby Knight was born in Massillon because there was no hospital in Orrville at that time.

If Lebron James isn't on the list, I will leave the forums.

Thanks.

LeBron and Jack seem to be the 2 consensus picks.

I'll get a poll up for the last two spots when I get a chance.

Great list.

If it were non-sports people born in Ohio I would think the following would be at the top:

Thomas Edison
Neil Armstrong
Orrville Wright
Bob Hope
- plus several US presidents

Other sports greats would be Cy Young and Branch Rickey
