Easily. Hands down.
His documentary was great.
This guy is/was my favorite athlete of all time.
I am sad after watching that documentary. He was so young and could have done so many more things in sports.
Bad shit always happens to the nicest people who don't deserve it.
He seems to be doing well though so that's good.

Love me some Bo Jackson. Barry Sanders will always be my #1 RB of all-time. Sucks he retired early but what Sanders did behind that dreadful OL was nothing short of amazing.
It's truly splitting hairs between Sanders and Jackson though so no one can say for sure who was better so it's preference really.

What?
Bo Jackson never rushed for 1,000 yards. I think he had all the potential in the world had he not fvcked up his hip but comparing the guy to Barry Sanders is a joke.

I'm not comparing anyone to Bo. I'm just saying that comparing Bo Jackson as a RB to Barry Sanders is a stretch to say the least. Les went as far as to say that Bo and Barry were basically "splitting hairs". Ughhhh no
If you want to talk about all around athletes, Deion, Jim Brown, Calvin Johnson, Russell Wilson and others that were actually studs in two sports makes sense. You just can't compare Bo Jackson and Barry Sanders when it comes to the RB position and call it even close.

Bo Jackson averaged 5.4 yards per carry in the NFL. He never had a thousand yards because he never played more than 11 games. He had over 900 yards in the season he did play 11 games.
He also averaged almost 75 yards per game. That would average out to 1200 yards per season over a 16 game schedule

Just curious then. Why would you think that Bo Jackson had the ability to even come close to playing the position like Barry Sanders did?
I'm really not hating on Bo because I actually like him. I was a huge fan of his when I used to play basketball and football at Erwin High School and go and play McAdory. I loved seeing the trophies and photos of him. Pretty sure it was him that played at McAdory and Barkley that played at Leeds.

Because I consider over 500 carries in the NFL to be a decent enough sample size to gauge someone's ability in the NFL. Because he averaged 5.4 yards a carry. Because in three of the four seasons he played, he had the longest run from scrimmage. Because I have eyeballs and saw the runs he made and the way he ran/played the position. Because he is without question one of the 10 (being conservative) best athletes in pro sports in any of our lifetimes.
Those reasons.
