"Legendary" implies that everybody knows that person's name.

And while the Hunt name is important to Kansas City, its fans and the Chiefs, it's hardly legendary.

Again, no offense.
I think you are wrong in this. Hunt is a legend within the NFL circles. What you keep referring to in Jordon, Montana, etc is someone who transcends their sport.
