Bo Jackson - "If I knew back then what I know now, I would have never played football"

[El Bombi]

Not even just the money he probably would've been a Hall of Famer or a highly elite player for a long time in the MLB

Naw Fam

Bo baseball numbers wasn't that great.

Now there's a case for Deion Sanders being a Hall of Famer if Primetime only focused playing in the MLB.

 

[The God Poster]

Maybe I'm tripping but didn't he say this before

Why is this new news?

You knew about CTE at age 14 huh
Dr. Omalu owe you a shout out then breh

Every professional sport leaves your joints and ligaments fukked up......these people are talking about CTE SPECIFICALLY (obviously)
None of us knew concussions lead to long term brain damage as recent as 2005
It was legit

Yes… We knew football players came off as punch drunk boxers. We didn't need the label CTE to know that. The only thing that came along with the doctors work is the name fir something we already knew

 

[El Bombi]

he was legitimately great at baseball though. a lot of people who play football aren't.

His MLB numbers wasn't that great playa.


nikkas love overhyped Bo baseball career.

Now, I can see making this case for Deion Sanders

fukk Bo. I already got an issue with this bama for trying to high side Jameis. Anyway, everyone knows there are inherent risk that comes along with playing football. Just leave the grandstanding at the door. Talking about he'll hit his kid in the mouth.....such a try hard. Nobody hitting him in the mouth for eating fat back sandwiches or drinking his bourbon and whiskey. Both have long lasting and unrepairable damage to other parts of the body, including your brain. Without football, he's just another country strong, stuttering, high school "used to be" that worked with your pops at the plant. fukk outta here.

Guess Bo....



Didn't know

 

[Bless't]

I always kept my shoulders squared, my head up and then I wrapped up. I was never in danger.

Guess Bo....



Didn't know

Bo back then didn't know diddley.......

 

[feelosofer]

If I were him I wouldn't have either, he was a terrific football player, but he would have been a HOF baseball player had he stuck with it.

 

[dh86]

I've said this before. I knew the sport was dangerous when I was 14. You know the toll early. Any oldhead pretending like they didn't know there'd be long term consequences is full of shyt.

That was proven false in court, what year was it when you were 14?

 

[dh86]

Bo passion was always for baseball, he probably only played football because it came easy for him.

The first publicized case of that was Mike Webster, and he retired in 1990.

We even knew before that. It simply didn't have a label to it. We just called it "football will fukk a niqqa head up. ".
