Just a silly idea, but food for thought, right? I’m always making comparisons between musicians and athletes, so why not pair up some possible soul-brethren?
Eddie Van Halen = Magic Johnson
Jeff Beck = Barry Sanders
Ozzy Osbourne = Lance Armstrong
Flea = Mohammad Ali
Zakk Wylde = Ray Lewis
Randy Rhoads = Bo Jackson
Joe Satriani = Larry Bird
Dave Navarro = Dennis Rodman
Eric Clapton = Kurt Warner
Steve Vai = Jerry Rice
Dime Bag Darrell = Ronnie Lott
Jimi Hendrix = Michael Jordan
Jimmy Page = Tiger Woods
Yngwie Malmsteen = Usain Bolt
All the Chili Pepper’s guitarists = the Yankee’s bullpen
David Lee Roth = Bob Uecker
Michael Bolton = Dan Dierdorf
Celine Dion = Mary Lou Retton
Joe Pass = Joe Montana
John Bonham = Kimbo
Steve Stevens = Eddie Arcaro
