I'm talking about a "endangered species" of sports: the one-team athlete. Two notable baseball players come 2 mind: Cal Ripken Jr. of the Baltimore Orioles & Tony Gwynn of the San Diego Padres. U guys know any more guys who stuck w/ one team & notably amongst the NFL, NBA, & NHL, 2? U can also include NCAA coaches. Limit your answers 2 after 1978, my year of birth. & DO NOT choose current guys! Even if Derek Jeter's only been an Yankee & Tim Duncan's been only a Spur, u can NEVER guarantee that they'll retire w/o playing 4 another club.
