You're crazy.  If it's not Vick, Bo is the face of Madden.

Bo program was actually fun last year

Why though? I get he was a freak athlete and all. But he had EIGHT 100 yards games in his career.

I hate OOP, so didn't use any of them outside RB.

Great Post. People Don't know or maybe realize that he was coming in at halftime of games most of the time throwing on pads going back out after halftime and playing. TBH He was only playing football because he was waiting to play baseball because the seasons overlap. Imagine playing football because you were bored and you won The Heisman in college/and you were a Pro Bowler in the NFL . But never took football as serious as baseball. But you were the #1 pick in the NFL DRAFT. But you didnt go to the team because the screwed  you over so you get the next year in the 7th  RD and still get payed like the 1st Overall Pick. LOL I GUESS PEOPLE DON'T KNOW BO!!

Yup.  He really was something else.   Sucks he had such a weird injury that wrecked his sports career.   I always wonder what would have his career in both sports be like if he didn't sustain that injury.    Could you imagine putting your own hip back in to place

Deion was more impressive to me... he would play baseball and football all season. He would play baseball all week and then play football Sunday. He actually played in a playoff game for the Braves on a Saturday night and padded up and a road game in Miami at  1:00 Sunday. If my memory is correct (I'm old) he even won NLCS MVP in that series. Bo was great in college and a freak athlete, but Deion was the more impressive pro multi sport athlete.

Heisman winner. 

Only athlete in history to be an all star in two different sports. 

So athletic it became almost legendary. 

Not sure why the Bo slander after all these years.

I think this is it.  With sports legends that end too soon, we're always left with the taste of them in their prime and the imagination always wonders what if.  Bo is the epidemy of this, a generational talent that was like a super hero.  As a sports fan, I'm a gasp at talent that is head and shoulders above the rest, almost unworldly.  And Bo game all of us that can remember that super hero feeling.

Yeah, Bo was more legendary than Deion.  Deion may have accomplished more, but Bo was on another level when healthy.
