Sports Figures That Belong On The Simpsons

In honor of The Simpsons Movie coming out this Friday, I decided to do some research and see what athletes deserve to have guest appearances on the most successful cartoon of all time. This is what I came up with:

O.J. Simpson – Ex-Running Back for the Buffalo Bills and San Fransisco 49ers.

Homer Bailey – Pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds.

Marge Schott – Former President/CEO of the Cincinnati Reds.

Bartolo Colon – Pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels.

Kyleigh Milhouse – Women’s Cross Country runner at Navy.

Mike Burns – Pitcher for the Boston Red Sox.

Dana Flanders – Forward/Defense for Cornell Men’s Soccer.

Al Skinner – Head Coach of Boston College Men’s Basketball Team.

Moe Williams – Ex-Running Back for the Minnesota Vikings.

Otto Graham (rhymes with Otto Mann) – Ex-Quarterback of the Cleveland Browns.

Ty (Chief Wiggum) Wigginton – Infielder for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

Willie Berry – Groundskeeper for the Houston Astros.

Scott Dohmann – Pitcher for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

Chris Duffy – Center Fielder for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Add any other names that you think would fit into The Simpsons theme in the comments section.  And if you want to see a list of athletes that have actually made cartoon appearances on The Simpsons, the San Jose Mercury News has you covered [Eat my sports: athletes and `The Simpsons’].
