Since Ali's the greatest, let's hire him as coach; then, we'll draft Jesse Owens. His long jump wins my vote. We just might need a big man, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. And golfer Tiger Woods will finish under par. We'd better get a pitcher; so round up Satchel Paige. Then, he'll call Jackie Robison from the batting cage. Get Florence Griffith Joyner for her hundred-meter dash and a pair of tennis players- Althea Gibson, Arthur Ashe. Enlist Major Taylor, he's lightning on a bike; and running back Jim Brown, who zooms when he hears,"Hike!" Catch sprinter Wilma Rudolph, who triumphs through sheer will. Tap point guard Micheal Jordan to give the fans a thrill. Then, ask Magic Johnson to cast just one more spell: May all-stars light new stars and never bid farewell.
