Capt B- I am sure they mean his likeness and whatever cut sigs they got their hands on. He estate has to approve- he is not Elvis mind you, but they do need permission. That put he made in 99 to win the Open was as money as it gets- great drama....

Just thought of a few more:

Meadowlark Lemon, Goose Goslin and Curly Neal from the Harlem Globetrotters.

Andre The Giant is cool. I got to see him in person when I was young. I remember his hand was almost twice the size of my head.

Too bad they can't get Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. These are 2 of the biggest sport kings that may never be included.

Tony Hawk should probably get a card in this set.

I think the inventor of basketball, Mr. James Naismith himself should be included in SportKings Series B. Here is some very brief info on him from a Google search:

James Naismith was a star gymnast, lacrosse player and football player at McGill University where he earned a BA in Physical Education (1887) and a Diploma at the Presbyterian College in Montreal (1890). In 1885-86 he won the Wicksteed Silver Medal as the gymnastics champion of the school's junior class. In his graduating year, he won the Medal as the top athlete of the university's senior class.

In 1891, while working as a physical education teacher at the YMCA International Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts, Naismith was asked to make a game that would not take up much room, was not too rough, and at the same time, could be played indoors. He had no idea he would invent what would become the most popular indoor sport in the United States.

How cool would a Cut Auto be from him? Wow!
