No but your statement is ridiculous. Which isn't surprising considering you're a dumbass

So is he faster than guys like Nate Robinson, Westbrook, etc? Does he have a higher vert? What makes him more athletic than everyone else?

He's definitely as fast and has a similar vertical to everyone outside of Robinson because he's tiny

Record points for Bo.


Not only did he win state, he did it with a record number of points without even competing in the distance running events.

Are we really on the 4th page without one single mention of Michael Jordan? Really??

What's the point (this is about all-around athlete not accomplishments) when most of us saw Jordan play baseball and basketball and saw Bo play both baseball and football?

The Birmingham Barons isn't akin to All-Star for the Royals or Pro Bowl for the Raiders.

No, but Bo isn't in the hall of fame in either sport.

Jordan played at a higher level in the NBA than Bo did in baseball or football.

Obviously Bo was an all star in both sports. He was a 1 time all star in both. 0 MVP's, career .250 BA.

1) I think he could be an an all pro in the NFL

Possibly, but that's the point; he's not a 2 sport star like Bo was.
quote:

2) I don't have to judge only on accomplishments

Yes, your opinion is better than facts.
quote:

3) personally, I think he's the best in basketball ever.


I remember when I was still a teenager. MJ says hello.

Anyway, all-time and you'd have to look at someone like Jim Thorpe. Bo was the man, but Thorpe was a true freak in all around athletics.

I agree to an extent... But what BO did was better........

The man hit 30 hr's in an MLB season AND gained 1,000 yards in an NFL season........
