We must be close in age but root for different Baseball teams:
Fred Lynn
Jim Rice
Carl Yastrzemski
Tony Dorsett
Roger Staubach
Golden Richards
Butch Johnson
Louis Orr
Roosevelt Bouie

And you and I must be as well and we rooted for the same teams. Except I wasn't into Syracuse or college hoops yet. I was 10 in 1979.

Jim Rice, Yaz, and Dewey Evans from the Sox
Dorsett and Stauback from the Cowboys
My dad

I'll forgive you both for rooting for the wrong baseball team since this is an SU basketball forum.

As a shortstop myself when I was a boy, Cal was huge for me as well. That came a little after I was 10 though.

Brett Favre and Mike Piazza are the two that come to mind.
