Bo knows how to stay humble. What a legendary human being!!

Bo is the best two sport player I've ever seen. He was a great running back, and on the baseball field he had power, speed, and a great arm.

Unbelievable athlete. A true example of class.

The best athlete of our generation without question

Bo is a class act, family man, and so modest. A true GOAT.

Rare to see dave genuinely admire someone.

That was great seeing Bo on Letterman. What a class act. I didn't know he was actually thinking about retiring from football so that softens the blow that injury had on me. For me that was the greatest sports tragedy in my life. His story is so inspiring.

90's baseball was pure gold.

1994 strike, Mark and Sammy cheating with steroids along with many other players. A tremendous amount of fraudulent stats from 1995 on if not earlier. A decade of fake numbers. The 1980s and 70s were the golden years. Bo didn't cheat. Best natural athlete I have ever seen.

my friend who followed sports all his life said " bo is the greatest athlete ever lived"

I'm not sure that's accurate but he certainly had a full measure of talent. Other players were exceptional. I think it would be disrespectful to give him the distinction. He's one of several.

Both were competitive athletes who were good but not necessarily remembered beyond simply being very good. Although admittedly I'd love to be in either's shoes assuming I could.

You're joking, right? I mean...people who didn't know a thing about sports knew about Bo Jackson. I've seen the (implicitly humble bragging) "underrated" trope all over any and every video...especially of late. But to suggest that Bo Jackson went "unheralded" is so ridiculously nonsense...it breaks the bank.

Bo is a legend for good reason. And it's clear that Dave Letterman was totally impressed and appreciative of Bo. It was rare for Letterman to be like that without a single sarcastic remark or hint of joking at the guest's expense.

What an athlete and seems like a genuinely nice guy

Bo was an amazing athlete. I was never a fan of the teams he played for. But I was a fan of his. I still have his famous Nike Poster.

The man. The myth. The legend. Bo Jackson.

what a gentleman bo was and is!!! his mamma raised him right! for someone so gifted and genuinely legendary he is super humble and not so caught up with fame or anything celebrity 🙏

I love Bo so much!!! Pure class act!!

Kids today will never understand just how AMAZING that man is. Bo Knows dominance

Bo Jackson, such a terrific person!!!!!

I was a kid in KC when Bo played for the Royals and the entire city worshipped him. My 6th grade teacher put up the Black and Blue poster. I remember in 7th grade our American history teacher rolled the TV into class just so we could watch his appearance on Donahue. I read anything and everything written about him. It's too bad the hip injury stunted his career so much.

Same. I grew up in Wyndotte. I loved going to the K and seeing him as a kid. He gave his fans 100%

Bo was an absolute freak of an athlete but was the most polite and humble man. I true role model, I wish he would never have gotten hurt, so we could have been amazed by him even more.

Bo knows! Great athlete! He is actually pretty funny.

Bo is a genuinely nice guy..

Such a professional, truly someone inspiring

Man this channel is great, like a time machine!!!!! Thank Dave!!!!!

It's crazy that this man played two professional sports and even though he didn't play a long time in Football he made impact in both sports. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017 to find me.

Great athlete and wonderful personality!!!

Named my great horse after him! Bo Knows Whoa!!! Awesome fellas❤️

BO MY 1st FAVORITE MLB/NFL PLAYER… STAYED HUMBLE AND YET HE WAS A POWERFUL BALLPLAYER

At a new year party we were discussing sports and I said Bo is the greatest baseball/football player ever! My friend said no! Bo was the best athlete to ever play the game.

Still the only athlete I’ve idolized. My boyhood bedroom had a lot of Bo swag

I loved Bo. I had all his Rookie Cards

Pure Class💯

Sweetheart of a guy by all accounts and a freak of nature.

Man, as good as he was...imagine how much more could have been without that injury vs Bengals in the playoffs.

God Bless you Bo

What could have been? I still remember that long touchdown run for the Raiders when he turned the corner when the defensive player had the angle. Only Bo could have done that.

I've never seen someone who is muscle from top to bottom. He could play any sport he wanted to at any time.

The guy was 75% faster than all of the rest of the league with an artificial hip.

No doubt the greatest athlete to have ever lived. Prime is close as well, but Bo is the GOAT

Imagine not being in the hall of fame because you were injured? Crazy thing about it was he was too tough for his own good. He would have be okay had he just saw a dr and maybe gotten a x-ray. The man averaged 5.4-5.5 yards per carry. Could knock a baseball over 500 feet with ease. Could throw you out at home plate from left field with just his arm. Run across a wall, fly up a wall to make what would have been a home run. Break multiple tackles and run 90 yards for a touchdown on multiple occasions. Again i say, why isn't VEJ, in the baseball and football HOF? That's crazy! HOF athletes talk of how great Bo was at his crafts.

The greatest Auburn athlete. War Damn 🦅

This Bama grad admits Bo is the greatest athlete of my lifetime. And though Charles Barkley may not be in many goat conversations, I admire him too.

Cool video never seen the video lol tremendous Athlete......

The greatest athlete of the 20th century. 👍

Top shelf

I always wanted his Royals rookie card!

Had my hip replaced last March and was walking 3 days later unaided. My doctor told me to go back to playing pickleball in July. I went back on Memorial Day. I think the surgery has come a long way since 1994. I am 64 years old and have no problem whatsoever. But I never had to turn on a 95 MPH fastball either. Bo would have the "official" record for ypc which I believe was 5.5 but he did not have enough carries to qualify. Jim Brown is the official record holder at 5.2.

I think that that bat was already broken when Dave snapped it over his knee. Maybe.......

Definitely "gimmicked" as the pro wrestlers would say. You can see it was pretty cleanly sawed through most of the way.

Bo knows the Late Show

The hip is made of titanium.

They wasted adamantium on Wolverine, should have saved it for Bo’s hip. I truly feel lucky to have been born in time to watch him play and have his posters on my wall growing up. We will never see another athlete with so many gifts

O’HARE CHI!!

Plot twist: the hood is made out of more hip another hip if you will

I still have his baseball card

The hip is made with attitude…

explain to the folks at home who bo jackson is

I have an artificial hip and it's made of titanium with ceramic ball and cup.

Then when Bo did get into the lineup, he went 0 for 10 with 6 strikeouts, including two whiffs late in Game 5 while representing the tying run. Finally, instead of eating his words, he tried to claim he never made the "one man short" comment, even though several people could vouch that they heard him.
