The sports heroes are still there, it's just they're not necessarily the best players.
Andre Miller is my sports hero. No, he hasn't won any championships, but he not only has an amazing overall game, but shows fan appreciation like no one else. He's been known to stay in the arena until all autograph requests have been fulfilled. My friend went up to him and asked him for an autograph. Andre said, "Hey give me a sec. I have to go do my shoot-around." My friend wasn't expecting to get his autograph, but sure enough, Andre Miller walks right up to him after his shoot-around, taps him on the shoulder and says, "Well how 'bout that autograph?" I personally sent him 3 of his rookie cards in the mail, with a letter saying, "Please keep two of these as a gift, and if you will, could you sign one of them for me?" I get ALL THREE cards back from him, all signed.
As I said, they're there, you just have to find them. I've always found that the unsung heroes are usually the true heroes these days.
