Just wanted to say I wrote Bo Jackson when I was a a kid and he took time and wrote me back. Even sent an autographed picture. Still have both of them framed. BO KNOWS!!
I got a chance to talk to him on the phone tonight I’ve been calling his company for six to seven months they said I would never reach him but I kept calling the nicest man I’ve ever talked to easily
That’s super cool, wasn’t much of a Bo fan but I can tell you I have all of his baseball & football cards (rookies too, of course). I enjoy them every so often reminiscing the day’s my dad & collected them (of course Bo’s a part of that)
@matthewguynn5745 lebron was all state in football in high school. Dude is a freak athlete at 6'9 250 still the fastest, strongest and best leaping ability. That's what I consider a great athlete.
Bo Jackson is now a great community leader in my area in Illinois owning and running the Bo Jackson Dome in Lockport Illinois which has a bigtime training facilities for baseball and football players in youth sports. Definitely a Blessed man in life. Bo knows!!!
This guy was my hero growing up. Remember the "Pro Stars" cartoon? Used to watch it every Saturday morning. Used to go to the flea market with my grandmother, specifically looking for Bo Jackson cards. Absolutely broke my heart when he left sports.
I want to add; Bo, thanks for being such a fantastic advocate for Auburn over the years and contributing to so many charities. Thanks for encouraging young people to pursue their dreams and thanks for being such a role model for so many people. We are so thankful Bo decided to come to Auburn University to share part of his life with the Auburn family.
Being a kid in the 90s was wild. I remember a show that featured cartoon versions of Bo, Jordan, and Wayne Gretzky showcasing a type of Captain Planet vibe.
I was at the Auburn-Nebraska game in 1982. I had heard people talking about this freshman Vincent Jackson dude. This was before the internet, College Game Day etc. Auburn was still in the rebuilding stage and they got man-handled by the Nebraska roid-huskers but not before Vincent became "BO" on one play. He took a pitch and swept to his left. He turned it upfield and headed straight for our section. We had the perfect view! To roid-huskers broke down to hit him low. The freshman hit the brakes inside the five, throwing his body into a somersault. He flew right over the DBs who were still grasping at air as Bo landed on his butt three yards deep in the end zone! The crowd went nuts. He got up, handed the ball to the ref and jogged to the sideline like nothing had happened. That was and is BO. I told my buddies we should probably keep an eye on this Vincent kid.
MARCVS LICINIVS CRASSVS until someone popped his hip out on a random tackle..Bo was bigger..his shoes sold more than Jordans at that time..missed opportunity with Bo!.. could have been the best all time..in my humble opinion
Bo Jackson: The greatest physical human to have ever graced the planet. Thank you Al Davis for finding some way to get him onto the pro football field so we mere mortals could witness his greatest!
This is a pure Hall of Fame Football and Baseball player. It doesn't matter how many years you played, when you see greatness, recognize it. Nobody in those Hall of Fames have the talent of a Bo Jackson!
Bo Jackson was so amazing and athletically unbelievable when he played I’m a die hard Denver Broncos fan cheering for him in the middle of the peak of the Broncos vs Raiders rivalry!
Being a White Sox fan, I know we were excited that Bo made it back from such a gnarly injury and we sign him. He didnt disappoint, hits a homer his first at bat after they said he'd never play pro sports again. That was one of the MANY magical things I've seen as a ChiSox fan
My ex wife is one. Her father was on the golf course her whole life so she doesn't know shit about it. She is ruining the lives of my kids currently and i see them 4 days a month like all the other suckers that married gold digging whores.
When Bo was playing baseball in Kansas City George Brett took him under his wings and was his mentor Brett even named his son after Bo (Jackson Brett).
Love this guy down to earth hard working. Helped bring Auburn out from under Alabama rampage. He is humble and sticks to his roots always trying to help God Bless.
I suffered through 4 years of Doug Barfield as Head Coach at Auburn....then Ill be damn if Bo doesn't show up the next year...oh well I got to see him a couple of times!
i grew up in Midfield, Alabama. A rival school of Mcadory. Bo was doing all this stuff at 15 years old. He was just a freak of nature. Grown man in middle school.
MimmGigg if you think about it, that could've had something to do with his injury....maybe a lack of exercise and even simple shit like stretching, just the way he landed and how that guy held his leg when he went down, all adds up. Im only 23 and was never into sports like that, so im not sure if that were the case, im just going off of your comment. You make it seem as if he didnt lift weights much which I have no idea how often or how he exercised
"They had to pay the piper. That's just the way it was . . " My approach to school yard bullying, with clenched fist and jaw. When I read about Bo Jackson in '78, I decided his attitude would be my role model and I never stepped backwards again.
He’s #1 in my book. Y’all can say what u want about Jordan.bo Jackson WAS ALL AROUND PURE ALLSTAR ATHLETE IN TWO SPORTS. . he’s the GOAT and always wil be.
Imagine the discipline Bo grew up with. He was taught a young age and was heads n shoulders above the athletes around him. The ridicule he had to have heard about his speech impediment but yet he ignored them and pushed forward. That to me is above all else is his greatest quality. By 7th grade he would of beat the snot of the kids who made fun of him. But his mom or grandma wouldn't of allowed that. People forget Jim Thorpe was one hell of an athlete back in his day as well and he never got the respect he deserved. He was an all around athlete. I think because he was native that was held against him and you never did get the accolades or the respect he deserved. I think if Bo had stuck to football he'd had every record in the book for a RB. He was that good. It'll take one hell of a man to knock Bo off as the greatest athlete in my generation. I didn't care for Auburn. I'm an Iowa guy. And we all hate the Raiders. Im a Cowboys Fan !!But I loved George Brett n the Royals. Lol
Probably the best athlete in my time. Try to imagine going pro in both sports and being an all star in both sports. It takes a freak athlete with mad skills to be at that level. Total badass!
Wrong Brock Lee, it takes Hard Work to do what Bo did. I never hear people call Albert Einstein a Freak! Both those men worked hard at their Profession. Try to do what they did without Hard Work! You will Fail
If bo trained as hard as a normal athlete has to compete he'd be in a league by himself with no one to,play with. He was amazing to watch as he punished the other teams. Just watched him punish and run over bosworth like he was a tackling dummy. Gale Sayers was another great one because of his longevity.
A football player, baseball player, writer, teacher, philanthropist, celebrity, icon, legend. He is the only person I can think of next to Arnold worthy of more than 1 lifetime achievement award.
Bo was "that dude".i saw him in 87 against the Patriots at the old stadium in New england.when he got off the bench&put his helmet on everyone stood up&there was a collective hush in the stadium.too many great bo stories to. List.and all that in the span of a few yrs.
No human will ever be the athlete Bo Jackson was. To come into an NFL season half way through from baseball and run for 200 yards like nothing will never be done again I was lucky to have witnessed his greatness
I know this post is 4 years old … but my favorite Bo Jackson fact is. He had a huge amount of work out equipment given to him … that he never used .. he never lifted weights … just A unbelievable God gifted physical specimen that Greek Gods would Envy..
I'm glad we got to witness what little we did of this man's abilities, but sad at the same time bc of what could of been. He was taken out in his prime and I can only imagine how many more crazy highlights he would of produced and would of probably been in the hof in both sports.
05:13. Bo is stutterer. He was a very bad tempered kid because he lashed out at people who made fun of his stuttering. You can see his wife, telling him to slow down and breath before he answers with a hand signal. Great support from his wife and I am happy that he is described as a GOAT (Greatest of ALL Time). Though he didn't play in both games long enough. He deserves honorable mention in the Major Leagues and Football HOF.
On 2Wheels . It's weird that I saw your comment because watching Astros' Springer MVP videos is what led me here. Springer is also a stutterer and that's how he got so much into sports. Anger is also a common issue because they can't articulate so there's always a language barrier and it makes them frustrated. Huh, the more you know
mike tyson too, got picked on not cause a stutter but a lisp and high pitched voice there's alot of similarities between them except bo 'smartened' up faster than mike did
Bo was my favorite player to watch play both sports this man could have been the first guy to be in both hall of fames wish he would.have never got hurt awsome guy to match play
+Ethan Smith my ass hole older brother wrote that (we share this account) I'm a ravens fan and I think bo Jackson is a legend and I look up to him…I'm sorry for my brother.
Hey Ethan , I see you're a Big Fan of Bo Jackson so I figured someone who knows his career would be the person to ask .... What was Bo better at between those two major sports.?? And did he actually get into the Hall of fame for both..?? Just curious ...... he was WAY before my time but I hear so much about him that I had to watch a few of these " Bo videos " and see for myself. However , they don't show too much of his highlights , so I don't really know How Good he actually was..?!?
being tough and not saying anything while he was hurt and not telling trainers is what ended his career smh, greatest athlete ever and so soft spoken and humble.
I remember he said he was going to play football as a hobby. NFL players said well show him. "Hobby", well he was the one kicked that ass. Even with teammates they resented One practice they were like Bo.
Most talented athlete EVER. What a combination of speed, size, strength, and arm. He could have become the greatest NFL running back if not for the hip injury.
Greatest athlete, no disrespect deion Sanders, that we will ever see. Came back to baseball with a fake hip. And was still a great DH. If not for that injury, who knows what he might have accomplished.
Always respected superstar athletes who were low-key and stayed out of the limelight. To my knowledge, Bo has always been tied to Alabama and Missouri. Herschel Walker to Georgia. Larry Holmes to his roots in Easton, PA, and Barry Sanders and Tim Duncan are so low key, that I'm not sure which states they reside in. Always intrigued by the freakish natural strength, explosive power, and speed of 3 guys who claim to never have spent much time lifting weights: Bo Jackson, Herschel Walker, and Mike Tyson. I went to high school (waaaay back in the day), when almost nobody spent a whole lot of time in the gym lifting, with a kid (ironically, also named Vincent), who was about 5'6" and just naturally very muscular, especially for back in those days.

Bo is a real stand up guy. My favorite player of all time
He is without a doubt in the top five athlete or athletic human who has ever walked this earth period.
Number 1

Bo is the best ever. Thank you for be a very humble, role model this world needs. Love to you and your family
I’m so glad I had the pleasure of seeing this man play.
Bo Jackson is now a great community leader in my area in Illinois owning and running the Bo Jackson Dome in Lockport Illinois which has a bigtime training facilities for baseball and football players in youth sports.
Definitely a Blessed man in life.
Bo knows!!!
Greatest Athlete ever...
This guy was my hero growing up. Remember the "Pro Stars" cartoon? Used to watch it every Saturday morning. Used to go to the flea market with my grandmother, specifically looking for Bo Jackson cards. Absolutely broke my heart when he left sports.
Yea with Jordan and Wayne Gretski
LOL I still have my Bo Jackson card collection sentimental value
yes it aired on NBC on Saturdays around 92'
Damn bro you just took me back to the 1980's to when Saturday mornings consisted of nothing but cartoons for hours on end
Bro, that brings back some great memories for me. I was born in '81. I also was looking for Bo Jax cards too.
I want to add; Bo, thanks for being such a fantastic advocate for Auburn over the years and contributing to so many charities. Thanks for encouraging young people to pursue their dreams and thanks for being such a role model for so many people. We are so thankful Bo decided to come to Auburn University to share part of his life with the Auburn family.
Bo knows ❤👍
Auburn is my favorite Western SEC team because of Bo!
Never been a fan of the Nick Saban crowd.
guys like this come around once a millennium
ONE of my FAVORITES movies was :Jim Thorpe- All American about THE GREAT NATIVE AMERICAN ATHLETE.Bo Jackson WAS unbelievable,TOO.
thorpe may be only name anyone can suggest who might have been better than Bo.
No they don't. Black people's talent is so common among us that it's like a dung beetle walking a elephant and collecting talent for dung.
Copy cats have tried
There will never be another,players now are so arrogant
Being a kid in the 90s was wild. I remember a show that featured cartoon versions of Bo, Jordan, and Wayne Gretzky showcasing a type of Captain Planet vibe.

My brother has known Bo for years and says Bo is nice and can be, and just likes to be a family man.
I love the casual lounging, leg spread in what looks like some rolled back shorts with his wife's hand on his inner thigh. I miss the 1990's...
There was a time when Bo was just as big as Jordan, if not bigger.
remember "Bo Knows"?
I`m 35 that was the most popular thing to say in the 90`s.
Hands down you are correct. He didn't flippin lift weights for gods sake.
The first athlete 2 invent the Nike cross trainers! I can honestly say I owned @ least 5 or 6 pairs!
MARCVS LICINIVS CRASSVS until someone popped his hip out on a random tackle..Bo was bigger..his shoes sold more than Jordans at that time..missed opportunity with Bo!.. could have been the best all time..in my humble opinion
Bo Jackson: The greatest physical human to have ever graced the planet. Thank you Al Davis for finding some way to get him onto the pro football field so we mere mortals could witness his greatest!
Until he got too big and Davis hated Bo ☹️
No doubt!!!
The 90s were a great time. We had Jordan, Mike Tyson, Joe Montana , Julio Cesar Chavez, Bo , Troy Aikman,
Gretzky,Tony Hawk,Smith#22,Flo'Jo, Remember Dave and Dave?,The Bills lol, and last but not least Kazam LMAO!!
Brian Bosworth
And Ricky Henderson!
Griffey Jr....
We had Pac & Biggie
Greatest athlete I ever saw and I’m almost 60…
First AB bat after hip replacement surgery when they said he'd never play again........Home Run. For his Mom. Legend.
When people mention Bo Jackson, I say in one phrase, God given talent!!!!!!! PERIOD!
This is a pure Hall of Fame Football and Baseball player. It doesn't matter how many years you played, when you see greatness, recognize it. Nobody in those Hall of Fames have the talent of a Bo Jackson!
He would have been in the Hall in both Football and Baseball. That hip injury ended his career. Man.. what if... Wow!
Right! So unfortunate
I remember watching the game when he got injured
He still can be in both sports of hall of fame
@bb kingme good point. Everybody knows Tom Brady's a b****..... Sorry that's just the way is. Been there done that
In my books I will always put Bo Jackson in the Hall of fame!
I LOVE THIS BROTHA! WAS MY IDOL GROWING UP. JUST AMAZING TO WATCH!
I'm a 61 yr old white male,I'm proud to say i loved that dude.
Bo Jackson was so amazing and athletically unbelievable when he played I’m a die hard Denver Broncos fan cheering for him in the middle of the peak of the Broncos vs Raiders rivalry!
Bo Jackson once stepped into a weight lifting room with no lifting experience and bench pressed over 400lbs! Let that sink in..
it doesnt matter what myth you can make up.. it will almost be folklore and true never the less.
Lol. Yeah ok, whatever. Grow up son. Bo did plenty of juice, and although lazy, he trained when he had to...
Not for nothing, but do you know that for a fact...or just repeating what you heard somewhere.
RecoveringGenius BO WAS RENOWNED FOR NOT WORKING . He was just gifted as hell
No name that's the time when ships were made of wood and men were made of iron.
Glad he can change his kids life and give them the life he never had. Rock on Bo
If he hadn't gotten hurt, he would have possibly been the first to be inducted into the Baseball and football Hall of Fame.
Still can happen
Being a White Sox fan, I know we were excited that Bo made it back from such a gnarly injury and we sign him. He didnt disappoint, hits a homer his first at bat after they said he'd never play pro sports again. That was one of the MANY magical things I've seen as a ChiSox fan
The world could use a few more Bo Jackson's. 💯
The most humble man ever
The players now will never match that but there is one I like and he plays for NY Giants Saquon Barkley
he doesn't seem that humble as I'm older lol, legend of course,an asshole slightly,any problems he will handle it seems like..
Mariono Martin that’s what I am saying! Respect ✊
I’m most impressed with how important he took fatherhood. In today’s news. People think a father isn’t that important.
2815Juan just another reason he’s the greatest.
It has always been.
Right!
Bo Jackson the athlete is only half as great as Bo Jackson the man. A finer person you'd be hard pressed to find.
My ex wife is one. Her father was on the golf course her whole life so she doesn't know shit about it. She is ruining the lives of my kids currently and i see them 4 days a month like all the other suckers that married gold digging whores.

Loved watching him play. Never been an athlete like bo. The man actually ripped his own hip out of place because he refuses to go down on a tackle.
They even named a weapon after him “Bo N his Arrow”
Watch the 30 for 30 on Bo Jackson. It's worth watching.
They should make a movie about bo,they just can't find anyone who could fill those shoes.
Best Bo jackson story I ever saw
It was really really good....him making arrows in his mancave at his home in Chicago
Bo. Played. Football. With. My. Cousin. Bob. Harris.
Hearing his salaries and endorsement money makes me wonder how many 100's of millions he'd make if in his prime now in 2018.
He would break more than one bank.
Play now and remain healthy? Billionaire Status
I suffered through 4 years of Doug Barfield as Head Coach at Auburn....then Ill be damn if Bo doesn't show up the next year...oh well I got to see him a couple of times!
Just imagine if he had the athletic training that they do today. GOD given talent.
why mess with perfection..besides..it was the 80s and 90s..they had modern training lol. not as advanced as 2017 but it wasnt the 1940s.
i grew up in Midfield, Alabama. A rival school of Mcadory. Bo was doing all this stuff at 15 years old. He was just a freak of nature. Grown man in middle school.

Athletic training is what fucks a lot of athletes up. Michael Phelps never lifted weights. Barry Sanders only jumped rope.
I say the same thing these guys never played pee wee ball or AAU this was raw talent period.

Thanks for the upload. Recorded this as a kid 1000 years ago. Cool to rewatch it
We'll never see an athlete like Bo again...

Great man thank you for the memories. You are the best still.
There were times I had to wear my mother’s shoes. I understand the struggle but it made me appreciate what I have today.
Bo was born a demigod!!! He is above all other mere mortals.
Damn!!!! You're a true champion, Bo! So humble and real.
Never saw anyone beat out a hard hit ball to 2nd base...watch his first hit in the bigs! Amazing!
never saw anyone make a batting cage collapse in on itself
How bout throwing out speedy Harold Reynolds from the warning track on the fly.

Soft spoken, humble and a rock star
05:13. Bo is stutterer. He was a very bad tempered kid because he lashed out at people who made fun of his stuttering. You can see his wife, telling him to slow down and breath before he answers with a hand signal. Great support from his wife and I am happy that he is described as a GOAT (Greatest of ALL Time).

Met him and shook his hand in 2000, he was bigger in person, and his hand was huge!

You can tell it's dated when they emphasized that he made $4 million...in today's world, that number would've conservatively been 10 times greater
I remember since 87-90 Bo Jackson was the biggest Name in America
BO Jackson and Bart Simpson
I loved watching Bo play when I was a kid
By far the GREATEST ATHLETE in history. Period
props to Stone Phillips for a great interview. he asked really good and tough questions in a way that wasn't confrontational. well done.

Didn't matter what sport football or baseball you just watched Bo !
An eerie foreshadowing at 9:22.
Always respected superstar athletes who were low-key and stayed out of the limelight. To my knowledge, Bo has always been tied to Alabama and Missouri. Herschel Walker to Georgia. Larry Holmes to his roots in Easton, PA, and Barry Sanders and Tim Duncan are so low key, that I'm not sure which states they reside in.

Greatest natural athlete ever!
I had never seen Ronnie Lott pull up b4 lol😎
Without a doubt the GREATEST athlete of ALL-TIME... Roosevelt's who actually saw him play were definitely blessed to have witnessed such greatest
