Remembering Bo Jackson

masonphillip · Sep 27, 2009

Watching a player like Percy Harvin, with the blinding speed got me thinking about a guy who was around 20 years ago...Bo was something else. More thoughts in the blog below.

I miss Bo Jack

Add 40lbs of muscle and 100% more talent and I can see how Harvin would remind you of Bo. I honestly think if Bo never got hurt all RB's would be looking up at him. He was special.

I agree.

Only thing i dont like about Bo is that the bastard stole the Heisman from Chuck Long

The thing that made me think about Bo while watching those guys was just the pure excitement factor.

I can see that. Harvin definitely has that excitement factor.

Come on now. Bo didn't steal that from anyone. He was a man amongst boys.

Hey in my eyes Chuck Long should of won just because he went to Iowa. Also his team did way better then Bo's did that season. But Bo did deserve it.

I don't disagree with you, Bo was the complete package as far as speed and power goes, Harvin and Hester are just speed guys BUT they certainly generate excitement when they get their hands on the ball, which is what made me think of Bo.

He stepped out of bounds at the 50 yard line!

Bo Jackson is the greatest pure athlete of my lifetime (in my opinion)...I turn 35 next month, for reference.
