Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Galen Rupp
Babe Ruth
2 basic rules for alpha status beside legitimately being the best:
1) Have to be fairly intelligent
2) Can't be compensating for something by taking drugs
Emile Heskey. No competition.
Muhammad Ali

To me it comes down to between Ted Williams and Jim Brown.
To me, it's more between Galen Rupp and Ted Williams. I mean Teddy left and missed five of his prime years to fight in World War II and the Korean War and still came back to be the best hitter in the game. Completely effortless to him.
Galen Rupp is the other best choice, obviously.
Jim Brown, the one and only correct answer.
Clearly Wilt Chamberlain
The man slept with 20,000 woman.

The term alpha male comes from theories about dog packs which turned out to be incorrect. There are dominance behaviors in wolves but there is no such thing as an alpha male.

Yes. In his day he kicked @ss and took names with a smile on his face and a song in his heart. He is now a multimillionaire businessman. What's more alpha than that? Some toolbox who walks around talking about what a BAMF he is?
