My stubborn uneducated friend thinks Deion Sanders is a better athlete than Bo Jackson. Does anybody else think this same blasphemous thought as my friend?

They both had the ability to play multiple sports, which is a great indicator of athletic talent. Bo's career was cut short because of his injury, which will always lead to this topic being discussed.

Compare their All-Star game and pro bowl stats and get back to me.

Mr. Sanders and its not up for debate.

You are talking about a guy that is the greatest cover corner ever vs. a guy that in his best season didn't rush for a 1,000 yards. Seriously Clark?

Tough call. I would give a very slight edge to Bo just because I won multiple Super Bowls with Bo and the raiders in Tecmo Bowl without passing once all season.

Bo Jackson was a freak of nature. He easily wins this debate.

Deion is the only man who never touched the ball on a regular basis who could dominant a game


Deion > Bo

I would say in both in their prime in football, it's a push. Both were capable of taking over every game they were in.

In baseball, Bo was much better.

I say Bo for this reason.

Really?

It's gotta be Bo. He had size and speed.

Bo is the Jimi Hendrix of sports. Never got to see what he could have done.

Deion couldn't hold Bo's jock.

I dunno, I think Hendrix had a pretty good output in his life. Bo not so much.
