"You don't know Bo."

I'd forgotten just how great Bo Jackson was. Hope this 30 for 30 doesn't disappoint.

I'm not a Royals fan, but for those of you who are/were, was it hard to like Bo?


In the end, he was a Raider too.

Bo Jackson was the most exciting player I've ever watched wear Royals blue. Of course he was no George Brett in his career, but I just couldn't wait to watch him...whether he was throwing someone out, hitting a ball 450 feet, stealing a base, or scaling a wall.

I was pissed he went to the raiders. Of course, I would have loved for him to play across the parking lot.

I thought that was pretty well done, although not a ton of earth shattering info and moved pretty slow.

Where older Royals fans enthralled with Bo? Or was he an above average baseball player?

He really wasn't a complete baseball player, he struck out too much, but you had to watch because he would do crazy shit.

It's mind-boggling how many people continuously ask him if he really played for Michigan. He enjoys making ridiculously claims and then watching people fall for it or get worked up over it.

lol, it was a joke. He talked about that on his podcast with rich eisen. they all got a kick out of that. lol

People take everythign so serious.

Yep. His highlights were off the hook, but he never came close to reaching his potential as a baseball player. To this day, I think he would have been a HOFer in either sport if he picked one and stuck to it, but by trying to do both, he ended up just being a footnote.

It's all a joke. Whitlock likes to make jokes like that. It's just what he does.

[unnecessary drama]

guys lol it's just a schtick Whitlock does...he's joking

[cdcox]

Is Whitlock serious when he says that stuff or is he only joking? Does anybody know?

[stonedstooge]

He was more fun to watch as Bo the athlete as he was Bo the baseball player

He's joking. He causes quite the stir though. It's kind of a schtick he has.

[KCFalcon59]

It was quite the scene when he came to KC as a faider. The crowd just went crazy. Throwing plastic footballs, baseballs on the field. Nuts. Still wish the Chiefs would have had the smarts to draft him the year after he snubbed TB.
