Posted: Thu Jun 06, 2013 9:33 am
Bo Jackson was an amazing athlete. One of the only two athletes who played professional football ( NFL) as running back for Raiders and Baseball for Kansas. He was truly gifted and a Heisman trophy winner. latter is given to best College Football player. He then chose to play Baseball over NFL then proceeded to play both games. Unlike Cricket Football and Baseball are not played year around and their seasons dont overlap/ This athlete was so god gifted that he had amazing seasons in both the sports, you can check you tube.
Bo was the athlete who is still considered god father of NIKE ad campaigns and propelled them to a brand they are via famous ad campaign for cross trainer shoes Bo Knows. Check the ad even Michael Jordan was in it including other greats including John Mcenroe tennis champ.
Football injury resulted in partial hip replacement this athlete came back and then played one season Chicago baseball team. His amazing carrier was cut short and before all these performance enhanced drugs and steroids he was a super athlete.

baseball Career - Check his throws 300 feets away or spiderman run on the wall and he could bat the ball out of the park.
Football he had the most bruising position of running back meaning run like a tank smash mouth over the defense with 200 plus pounds guys hanging on you
I was watching a documentary on ESPN and it was mentioned and shown that he is such an avid archer during rehabilitation he was shooting his bow with feet! His stress reliever is preparing arrows and bow in his man cave. When they asked trophies - he showed his Elk, Bison, deer etc he has hunted. Athletes are infamous for club escapades etc this chap WHO was on track to be hall of fame in TWO major sports keeps himself rooted via his archery hobby. Another great remark was on the lines that he only hunts the meat which can be harvested and consumed.
