Not trying to take away from Bo, but no fricking way. HW is the man.

I must say the 30 for 30 series has been great tv. I've not watched one that wasn't compelling.

Only wants "Here lies a ballplayer" written on his tombstone.

Bo's attitude and self awareness is just as amazing as his athletic feats.

That 30 for 30 and "The U" 30 for 30 have been the best I've seen hands down.


The Iron Bowl one sucked. They should've spent 2 hours on it instead of just an hour. You can't cram all of the history of the iron bowl into that little of a time slot.

I thought the Bo Jackson and the Marcus Dupree documentaries were the two best 30 For 30's.

Haven't see the Dupree one yet.

The U was just amazing. I'd even give it the edge over the Bo Jackson one.

The Marcus Dupree one is still better I think. But this one was damn good.

The Bo and Dupree episodes should be required viewing for all NFL rookies.

Your career can be over in an instant, for any number of reasons.

Longevity wise, Walker has held up so well. That commercial during the Heisman presentation was just sick with him doing MMA. Bo has become a regular guy, but you can easily see that he was a baaaaaaaaaaad man at one time in his life.

I never knew about Bo losing his eligibility over the Tampa Bay thing. Wow. What an amazing player. He still holds the NFL 40 yd dash combine record?

Best thing about Bo Jackson to me is that he is a great father to his 3 children.

this. I would say Herschel was the better pure RB. Bo was the better athlete.

I had heard that he started a company that deals with supplements in North Alabama. He mention that he doesn't watch pro sports. Appears he loves hunting, he is at every Auburn football game


He has two children at Auburn, but he also has a Harley Dealership in Chicago. I think his wife practices in the Chicago area also.

How often does he attend Auburn games? How often does he come back to Alabama in general? I always wondered why he chose to remain in Chicago area myself.
