Quote HistoryQuoted: Came here to post this. Although I think he only played 8 games in the NFL. He was great in Predator: https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2012/03/08/JosephKony_alt1_vert-1d155db684d02bd88de2136bddae58e4658f49af.jpg “Only” played in 8 games in the NFL... probably 95% of high school football players never go on to play college ball and probably 99% of D1-D3 college players never even make an NFL practice squad. Dude played in the NFL... that’s nuts. |

It's gotta be either MJ, OJ, or Tyson. There can't be any other correct answers, except maybe the Hanson Brothers.

Chuck norris.
Was at the top of his game athletically. Most people know him from his acting. Pro wrestling is physical but is not a sport. Could make an argument for Bruce lee too. Steve McQueen as well. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: At first, I'd probably say two-time Olympic gold-medalist Buster Crabbe, or five-time Olympic gold-medalist Johnny Weismuller. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/255788/Crabbe__Buster_01-2328936.jpg https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/255788/Annex_-_Weissmuller__Johnny__Tarzan_Triu-2328938.jpg But then, after thinking about the question a little longer, it has to be Ben Johnson, the only man to ever win the world-championship in rodeo, and an Academy award for acting. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/255788/MV5BZDZkYTQ1YzYtZTc5YS00NjAxLWEyZjEtMTE4-2328940.jpg Winner! |

Quoted: Who succeeded the most, transitioning from the gridiron, the court, the field to the big screen? Ahnold seems like he would be a popular pick, but idk if bodybuilding is properly a sport Dennis Rodman Kareem Abdul Jabbar Rowdy Roddy Pipper (again, another maybe not properly a sport) OJ Andre the Giant etc, etc. OJ Simpson

Quote HistoryQuoted: James Garner What sport did he play before acting?  He was one hell of a race car driver as well as an actor. He did all of his own driving in the movie Grand Prix, The Rockford Files, and later as a sports car driver along with Steve McQueen. |

Turd Ferguson.
But seriously, Kris Kristofferson. He was in SI during college for his Rugby. Army helo pilot before a song writer. He famously landed a helicopter on Johnny Cash's lawn in order to get him to record his songs. True. I think he's actually the best actor mentioned in the thread, if not the biggest athletic success. |
