Role Models

There have been many role models for me to look up to, so decided to list a few of them, randomly. This post might be considered opposite of this but there is a subtle difference since there is no criticism or judgment just facts. Needless to say, friends and family are excluded when i am posting this becoz i don't want to judge them n that most of them are role models some time or other for me. Also, i have not met all of the legends/icons mentioned.
  • Sachin Tendulkar
  • Lance Armstrong-Great determination to beat cancer and win the tour de france 7 times (although later on - in 2013 - confessed to taking banned substances EPO and was stripped off the title).
  • Micheal Jordan- Champion who almost never gave up till the last second of the game.
  • Steven Waugh- Has taken many blows just to be on the crease for Australia, great temperament.
  • Glenn McGrath- Legend
  • Jackie Chan- Amazing risk taking abilities
  • Cyrus Broacha
  • Barkha Dutt
  • Oprah
  • Greame Smith
  • Courtney Walsh- Great bowler and even better batsmen (to watch). His long spells were a treat to watch.
  • Ted Dansen in the serial Becker i.e. the character 'Becker'.
  • Al Pacino
  • Greg Blewett
  • Rahul Dravid
  • Ian Wright from Travel and Living.
  • Wayne Brady
  • Alan Alda- Great documentaries done by him on Discovery.
  • Buffon
  • Paolo Maldini- played football for 25 years, he's more than a legend.
