I think Tim Duncan deserves mention in the NBA. Shaq is also a good pick. He gets a lot of bad press, but he seems like a decent guy that is fan friendly and plays hard.
Baseball, I'd go with Scott Rolen. Derek Jeter is another. In game 7 against the Sox, he was running at his max on sure ground outs, and I like to see that hustle. After reading an article about Scott Rolen I give him the edge over Jeter though.
Football.. Hmm, there is a defensive player on the Steelers with a Hawaiin last name that makes big plays but doesn't celebrate. He isn't well known though, so that might make him ineligible. Brett Favre is an easy selection here.
I don't know enough about hockey and its players off the ice to make an intellegent selection here, but I'd probably nominate either Mark Messier or Jeremy Roenick.
