Usually in any discussion of Bo, you run into someone who starts braying about his stats not seeming all that awesome.

If he had concentrated on one sport he would have been a super-superstar in that sport.

And besides that (and I don't know how to explain it exactly) his talent went far, far beyond mere statistics. He did things that were just superhuman. He was the Incredible Hulk, he was Superman, he was the Flash, all rolled into one...hell, he climbed outfield walls like Spiderman. To watch him was to learn how little statistics mean in sports. About the only valid description of Bo Jackson would be "What the hell did I just see?!?!?!"

Why in the name of all that is holy did fate in the form of injury take him away from us so quickly?

Anyone remember him catching a fly ball in the outfield with his bare hand? That one's my favorite.

I remember him beating out Chuck Long for the Heisman.
Chuck Long was the runner-up for the Heisman Trophy to Bo Jackson of Auburn in the second closest race in the award's history, losing by just 45 points.
It went to the right guy.

I remember very little when he played against the Chiefs.....I suppose it was, but he might have only played 1 time a season against the Chiefs depending on the schedule. He wouldnt join the Raiders until about week 6 or so because of the baseball season.

The Chiefs were only really good one season he played against us: 1990


Looks like he only played 4 games against the Chiefs and never really had a big game:

All star home run is my favorite Bo memory.

Looking forward to this one, I still have my Hit/Run shirt.

I LOVED going to the mall just to walk into Foot Locker and see this big poster on the wall.

Bo Jackson was my hero as a kid.

My first baseball card, which got me into "collecting" in which I sank a ton of money.

There was a great moment in 1990 when Deron Cherry -- I think it was his first game back from an injury -- laid a perfect hit on Bo to cause a fumble. Bo was about to break free for probably a touchdown, but Cherry put his shoulder down right on the ball and popped it out. That probably was the difference in the game, as the Chiefs won.

Documentary on Bo Jackson and Barry Sanders in the same week, both my all time sports heroes.

JIZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

He's probably the greatest athlete I've ever met and one of the biggest jerks as well.

I remember going to Royals games and flipping Bo shit for picking his nose in the outfield, he would flip us off, lolz. Barry Sanders was my alltime favorite, best of alltime.

Header says Dec. 9th but at the end of the video it says Dec. 8th.

This should be a good one. ESPN does a good job with the 30 for 30 shows.
