For The Win did a great piece on T.I. & sports topics. They asked him a bunch of different questions & he had some interesting answers.
Check it out…

If you could pick an NFL player to appear in one of your music videos, who would it be?
Probably just for the purpose of charisma and personality, I’d say Cam Newton. We spent some time together, actually played on the ping pong table over there.
If you had to make an NFL team full of rappers, who would you pick?
I gotta ask myself if I’m looking at physical ability, who would actually be good at the game or just character attributes? I’m definitely putting Rick Ross on the line. I don’t know how agile he is, by Jay Z looks like he should be the best fit for quarterback. I can’t speak to his athleticism, but as far as he approaches dissecting his challenges, I would say that’s the way a proper technician in football should approach the game. If I was going for a Dez Bryant type of receiver, I’d go with The Game, he got height, and speed, and he looks athletic.
If you could play an NFL player in a movie, who would you like to portray?
Joe Montana (laughs). There’s so much that goes into deciding if you would be a good fit for a biopic. [I’d play] Deion Sanders or Andre Rison probably. They were both pretty connected with pop culture. I think it would have to be someone who meant something off the field as well as on.
