Great Moments in Sports Diagrams



I love these! There are a series of them here:

Cassius Clay
Pete Rose
Michael Jordan
Bjorn Borg
Walter Payton

While these are done with a tongue-in-cheek approach, I do believe they are great examples of the dynamic diagram that Arnheim speaks of in his essay "What Abstraction Is" from the week 2 readings.
