Boston's Rushmore Part I

In 1941 Construction finished on Mt. Rushmore an homage to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln in the hills of South Dakota. What does this have to do with Boston Sports? Everything.
Lately in water cooler talks there have been references to what would Boston's Sports Rushmore look like. After several beer filled conversations with some of my buddies, I came to a conclusion there are too many variables in coming up with only 1 Rushmore. There are too many factors to consider when talking about the most influential, favorite, hated, or immortal athletes in such a rich tapestry as Boston sports. Who says there needs to only be one? Below are my nominations for several Boston Rushmores, originally I had discussions for each of them, but some didn't need it and would read like a novel. I welcome the discussions and challenges.
