I believe they wanted to list mostly "clean" people (Magic and Ali not-withstanding) who had a social twist to their careers. If you throw the "transcends sports" caveat you would have to add Bobby Orr, Wilt Chamberlain and Jim Brown , as they only changed dramatically their respective sports.

Darrel Green, whom Ive met, for being his age and still keeping up with rookies out of college, and for his charity work off the field.
