I don't think Jerry is gay, but even if he was - it has no impact on what he did on the football field.

Jeter, Duncan, Ripken Jr., Griffey Before Cincinnati, Mariano Rivera.
Jerry Rice is another good one, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning.

I think picture perfect would mean no on-court/field, off-court/field incidents or drama. My vote would have to be Peyton Manning.

When I think picture perfect... I don't think of career ending injuries. Hope Manning and Rivera can make a comeback and retire on their own terms.

Hope someone said Barry Sanders. Every season, 1000+ yards rushing, never slowed down.

yeah but the way he left a game left a sour taste in a lot of people's mouths. not that they have a right to look down on him, but still. it takes away from that "picture perfect" view. imo, of course

only thing for me is the playing for so many teams. imo picture perfect in most cases is one team, maybe two.

Still in jail, though. Justifiably? No matter. Hard to call a career perfect when it included jailtime.

i agree. what the hell was that stint in STL about?
that and his coaching record (if we're considering that) in PHX was awful. i think 4 or 5 years and didnt make the playoffs once
