I believe it was Howie Long who told this story, and I can't remember all the details or find any articles about it, but it goes that shortly after Bo arrived in LA, he was one of a handful of players who decided to have a skills competition. He beat the Raiders' QB's in the long throw, then punted it farther than the team punter to win that skill. I can't remember what it was but there was one more, it might have been longest FG, and he won that too. It may have been a foot race, I can't remember, but the point is that he won every category, beating all the starting players at their respective positions. The story might be just a myth and I may have gotten several things wrong due to lack of memory. But if it happens to be true, that's pretty amazing!

BO was one of a kind in history athlete! I pity the young folk who didn’t get a chance to see him play!

Best play EVA...Bo dont need no blocking! Lol

My son is 15 and we watch bo highlights and even in this era he's amazed by bo

Seen Bo’s 1st game as a Raider in LA. Run over a DB. Seen him run for 90 yard TD against Cincinnati. The man was strong and fast. I was lucky to see him play.

@@panama8009 yup I was there that day and alway will remember it. Yes it was very sad . Never see another like him . Two sport player.

Galloway once told me that after he got his knee operated on he felt faster.... the ligaments and tendons were tighter and stronger he said.... crazy work ethic to..... He was a monster before his time honestly.

Eddie George what a great BUCKEYE !!!!

Thank you for replying for Bo! He was THE BEST! If he would’ve had a regular length career of a star he would’ve put up crazy numbers.

Thanks Valuetainment great content @ Pat Bet David...So I took your advice and decided to do what I love was able to finish my book...it's live on Amazon going by the title Casualties of Power by Karaoke Collins inspired by true events by the way...love to get a shout out from you guys at Valuetainment and some great reviews from you guys too...it would be an honor from you guys if you can make it happen and help me market my book thank you guys & God bless.

Bo Jackson biggest down fall was he was so fast and strong. No Injury he would have records in yards td's and that just football. Ne was the best player in my generation.

Bo how did you do that man? I stayed at a Holiday Express last night. He was a beast. And I am sure the haters on here are note worth noting as probably never seen him play. Not only play he was humble and a great person.

I love....LOVE .....4that eddie George and bo jackson are friends..... Man the stories you could hear!

I became a Tampa Bay Bucs fan because of him... Sad he never played...if I knew the real story back then would be a Raider fan today In Auburn...the most amazing player I have ever witnessed...I was very blessed to watch him play The greatest athlete of my generation hands down

Greatest by what criteria?

Bo Jackson is my second favorite running back of all time, just under Barry Sanders. And I’m an Alabama fan.

He didn’t need blocking in the NFL?????? That’s a one in a lifetime player.

I’ve never seen that running on the wall play. That was awesome.

Here Eddie is giving Bo props, both amazing athletes. I remember Bo and Marcus Allen in the same backfield... that is just plain unfair and unstoppable

I was in Seattle watching the game with a few friends on TV on that Monday night game. Bo scored a TD on that 90-yd run straight to the tunnel in Kingdome. The room grew very quiet. We knew the Seattle Seahawks didn't have a chance against him.

Bo lowkey would have eclipsed Jordan if he never got hurt. Him and Dion Sanders playing two sports with Nike and Baseball and football being the number 1 and 2 sports in America at the time would have made them mythical. Bo grind hurt and MJ winning championships coupled with Basketball trying to go global helped him tremendously.

D. Felix Photo The problem is Bo would have to win in those sports though (especially football where I believe he was better at than baseball). And even still I don't think he passes MJ. Deion didn't get hurt and wasn't able to do it.

@@jtremaine23 that is the biggest what if. I won't deny that but it was possible. Baseball is crazy and he could have ended up on the Yankees because money talks. Football it would have been tough to move him and running backs have short careers. Dion was too cocky and that wasn't necessarily a cross over attribute. He played on historic teams tho in both sports. If Bo was in Dion's situation with no injuries he would have been just as big as MJ. MJ got kind of lucky timing wise because the NBA was needing a star and Nike had the international appeal and marketing on lock. Baseball was still the biggest sport with football. MJ even played baseball simply for the visibility. Nowhere in history will a guy quit one sport and be able to be placed in another that quick. So we know that was set up for him with the Bulls owner and Nike.

@@jtremaine23 I remember that cartoon 😂. But seriously, Bo was no question a beast. MJ was debated with Clyde and Wilkins. Magic and Larry were considered better until the second championship run. If he stopped at 3 and fell off a cliff once the gambling suspension happened and his father got killed he would have one of the most tarnished names in sports history. Bo was loved regardless of records and he didn't need Spike Lee to infiltrate the black community

@@d.felixphoto2260 He was debated with Clyde until he went off for a then-record 6 threes in a half in '92. Any proof of the gambling suspension? I'm not saying that it's not true but I can't go with it until I see some proof...I have to go with him retiring on his own after his dad died. Just to be clear--I was a Bo Jackson fan (even outside of Tecmo Bowl). He was one of my favorite NFL players until he got hurt but Jerry Rice was #1 on the list before he won any SB's.

Eddie George is a cool guy. I met him on the sideline at the Notre Dame/Alabama natty in Miami back in early 2000's. I walked up and offered him my hand and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. George." He shook my hand and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you." And i left it there and moved on. :) He's a big dude.

Eddie was a beast of a runner.

Awesome channel Pat! The most insane out of this world accomplishment from Bo was hitting 32 home runs being an All Star for the Royals then running over everyone in the NFL with 1000+ yards in the same season!! COME ON BRO! ONLY GOD COULD DO THAT,...or so we thought!

Sounds great but Bo never ran for more than 1000 yards in single NFL season. He never played in enough games due to his baseball career

Man please, I would spot Bo 10 yards in the 40 and only lose by 30.

Bo don’t need no blocking is a classic. Him running up the fence in baseball was a shocking sight. Never seen it before and haven’t seen it since.

Bo Jackson is the closest thing to Superman we will ever see. Definitely on the Mt. Rushmore of greatest athletes of all time.

You have to be a moron to not see the sick athleticism on display when Bo outran them including Boz and Kenny Easley on the way to that amazing touchdown run but I always am curious about the alleged “decleating” of Boz in the other touchdown. Bo jukes to Boz right, and Boz wraps him up and Tackles him. They Both go to the ground in the end zone. If Boz makes same tackle at the 50, they are saying how great it would have been. Truth is, everyone hated the Boz and they saw what they wanted to see. Boz was his own worst enemy

No disrespect to Darrel Green, but he didn't run over anybody, playing DB. Anybody who has ever played football understands how beat up you get playing RB. Way more physical than playing DB, thus why RB's careers are shorter. Bo Jackson:Greatest Athlete in my lifetime!
