I prefer this throw:
2013 SEC Tournament Final


I love that throw too, but it is not in the same universe as Bo’s throw.



Bo isn't an LSU Tiger, so it isn't meaningful at all to me.

Did you watch the video? No one covered home. You saw the managers come out all angry? No one covered home. Did you hear the announcers talk about no one at home? No one covered home.

Be more Bo Jackson like


when I was a kid I had a coach tell me to be more like Rickey Henderson.

asked him "if I was capable of being more like Rickey, don't you think I'd be doing it already?"

The umps were out of position. Fortunately for them the call was correct.They could say " Don't worry, I knew what I was doing".

If I could make that throw I would jack off in public 2-3 times a day.

It was ONLY 305 feet in the air to home plate. Short left field wall.

Bo is the best athlete I’ve ever seen. Unspeakable athleticism. When he ran the 40 for the NFL he told them they needed to open the doors at the end of the stadium so he would have enough room to stop at full speed.

Why compare him to any of these guys. Vlad might be the best I’ve seen.
