at this time bo was a better, fresher running back. i know that sounds crazy, but bo jackson was a bad mofo. also a heisman winner.

life is all about perception. LOL!!!!

See, you brought another reason why I hate Davis and the Raiders. The Royals had a great ball player get ruined wearing a Raider uniform! I was so pissed when he signed with the Raiders, it was a bad day!

It's not talked about in the media, but this created a rift between Lamar and Al, and they absolutely despise each other, because of it.

yep. that's the main point of contention.

also, why would the media want to talk about it? it wouldnt further their purpose of having the league "bad guy" to bag on.

it would be counterproductive to visit that issue. invariably, people would see the other side to this rift and it would humanize the guy people like to think of as satan himself. LOL!!!!
