Happy Birthday Quote of the Day to Bo Jackson

On November 30th, 1962, the great Bo Jackson was born, making Bo Diddley a very happy guy thirty years later when his career was revived by the Bo Knows commercials.

Bo Jackson was as good an athlete as you can ever imagine. No one has ever competed at the skill level that he did in both football and baseball. It was so sad that his career was cut short, because he would have been in the record books as an all-time great.

He is one of the few players to make the All-Star game in two sports and in 1989 he was the Baseball All-Star game MVP. His potential was limitless as described in the many quotes said about him baseballquotations.com


"If I see Reggie Jackson, I'm going to tell him, this man makes your home runs look like pop ups."
--John Mayberry Sr, talking about Bo Jackson
