Rules are simple. Take the last letter from the previous athlete's name and use it to start another athlete's first name. Legitimate nicknames are fine.
But, everyone named has to have won a professional championship or Olympic gold medal. NCAA titles are fine as well and a Heisman win is ok.
I'll start with Mickey Lolich...

( I could go all day long, but I'm going to retire, I've had a great word game career. I expect my record of 11 straight word game championships to be broken, after all records were meant to be broken.)
you eating magic grits?
if you look at the time stamps, my call was clearly in there before your "edited" answer, therefore negating your answer in its entirety on the grounds that it was clearly officially and finally posted after mine. the irrefutable evidence speaks for itself.
in closing sir, i'm sure most of those currently residing at the shawshank correctional facility would like to go back and edit their actions. unfortunately for you, they simply can not and must be held accountable for their actions accordingly. ⚖️ 😉
sentencing:
by the zero power vested in me, i hereby deduct those 5 bonus points from you. furthermore, i deduct another 10 points for punitive damages.
Let's get this back on the rails.

yes, a technicality. but does own an official world series players ring (not administrative) bearing his name. and most certainly played a role in the 2003 postseason.
Nope, look at the time stamp again pal, I posted Oscar Robertson at 1:19a.m. and you posted Ozzie smith at 1:21 a.m. I edited it to add the quotation about being the GOAT at 1:22a.m. The evidence is indeed clear. I posted Oscar Robertson two minutes before you posted Ozzie Smith. I've been wrongly convicted!
Steve Bartman? Come on, he's a fan! It has to be an athlete.
I hereby officially replace Steve Bartman.☟
