Picked a random athletic guy nobody cares about out of the air. You could do that with a bunch of players.

Bo Jackson was a great athlete. But people love to embellish and make him out as if he was the best athlete ever. There have been plenty of guys as good or better athletes than him.

Jackson one of the more overrated players there has been because people back then just went into a frenzy about the two way sport thing. They did the same thing with Deion Sanders. Kyler Murray could have been a 1st round pick in baseball and football as well and literally nobody gives a shit. Nowadays you just pick a sport.

Hahahahah. He had NEGATIVE career defensive WAR. It was negative every year. This idea that he was an elite fielder is simply made up. He was FLASHY not great. He was a good offensive player at .784 OPS in his career but All-Time great? Cmon this is what Im talking about. The legend grows every year.

Lorenzo Cain is better than Bo Jackson. Is he an alltime great?
