Is Bo Jackson one of the top 10 American athletes of the 20th century?
Athletic ability alone? One of the all time best.

>Bo Jackson almost gave being an NFL player because he didn't want to be on the Buccaneers
Smart man.

prove to me how baseball requires athleticism when any nignog in college comes out with a MLB draft pick but they forego to go onto better sports like NFL or NBA

Probably because Baseball teams are empires and have huge networks of affiliated minor league teams where they can send potential players to develop whilst only paying them a small salary. I'm sure most people would rather get exposed in the NFL or NBA whilst making millions than never making it to the big leagues in Baseball.
>15 minute career
i dunno, i think greg oden and len bias were more athletic
>>66189774
Lmao, because they suck at baseball, bud
If playing NFL or NBA only required athleticism then why dont people like Usain Bolt just walk in there and play then??? LMAO, GTFO outta here, bud

Just imagine how good he could have been if he concentrated on one sport and training for said sport in the offseason? He was my favorite player before Griffey showed up.

No.
Bo Jackson has even admitted that he isn't even the best athlete to come from Auburn. He says it was Charles Barkley.
Also, a little known fact about Bo: When he started classes at Auburn University, he was illiterate.

>one pro bowl from four seasons
>never had 1000 yards or a half-dozen TDs
>one time all-star from eight seasons
>.250 career batting average, .309 OBP
>far more strikeouts (841) than hits (598)
Being athletically gifted doesn't make you a good athlete or good at sports. One of the most overrated athletes of all time.
