That is scary, LOL.

Bo and I could have been in high school together, albeit he would be a couple years ahead of me. Like you, I remember him from my youth.

I don't even want to think about where I'll be when he does, "Bo knows assisted living!" commercials. I was already into a profession and had children when Bo was a Freshman at Auburn.

Most amazing athlete I ever saw.

Hit a towering fly ball down the left field line. Fair of foul???? He stopped running on third base to watch it pass the foul poll.

How about Joe Namath doing Medicare commercials?

Lol, indeed, it seems like only yesterday Bo was playing for Auburn!

There are a lot of old farts on this board, myself among them! :)

They've moved on to William Devane this year. I always thought Joe's commercials came across as extremely cheesy and at the same time creepy.

Welcome to the club.

God, I hate those! Allegedly Bo, Charles, and Frank (the Big Hurt) all have solid financial advisors. They were all at Auburn at the same time, and each of them come back and give. They should be lifted up more than they are as examples of what alumni do. Bo led the bike challenge to raise funds for the Tuscaloosa Tornado fund. Too many of our athletes are in the wind when they leave. It is good to see them identify with the school, support it, and genuinely enjoy each other's company.

100% accurate. I'm not sure we have ever seen a more physically gifted individual. Truly spectacular at everything he did.

Also amazing that he played both football and baseball at Auburn with "The Big Hurt", Frank Thomas.

Mybe Bo will run for governor of alabama?

Bo Jackson is immortal & eternally in beast mode in super tecmo bowl...

You dive into him with a defensive lineman...you can't stop Bo!!!
You try to tackle him with 3 or 4 players...you can't stop Bo!!!
Even if you call the correct play...you still can't stop Bo!!!

super tecmo bowl knows Bo!!!

That'll give a whole new meaning to "air" Jordan! That ole digestive tract just produces more as you age.
