DFW Sports Mount Rushmore

There was some friendly debate this week about who would belong on the DFW pro sports Mount Rushmore.  Some people wanted 1 rep from each sport, i.e. Staubach, Modano, Nowitski, Ryan.  Some argued that the Rangers don't deserve anyone on it.  If you go strictly by stature and greatness, you could probably argue 3 Cowboys: Staubach, Aikman, Emmit, and then Nowitski.  Modano did win a Stanley Cup and was a perenial all-star and Olympian, but it's hockey in Texas.  I go with the 3 'boys + Dirk.

In Dallas, Texas my Mount Rushmore would follow the 4 people carvings. I would go a Landry, Lilly, Staubauch and Emmitt.
I had Tex ahead of Troy. He probably should be ahead of Smith.

Dirk and Madano are great, but it isnt the same thing in DFW. No Rangers comes close, although at one time I thought Juan Gone was going to be there. Steriods...ugh.
Maybe one day we will see Hamilton mentioned.
