An embarrassment of riches

Sometimes we take for granted that the Alabama Gulf Coast produces more great athletes than almost any city in the country per capita. It’s been that way for decades, it’s true today and there’s every reason to believe it’s going to be that way for decades to come.

Here’s a fun exercise to demonstrate the point. For any city in the country, who are the best trio of athletes in football, basketball and baseball? For the sake of this argument I’m going to include all athletes from Mobile and Baldwin counties.
