NOT WHAT COULD OF HAPPENED IF HE DIDNT GET INJURED BUT WHAT HE ACTUALLY ACHIEVED.

I SAY YES

HE WAS DOMINATING EVEN THOUGH PLAYING PARTIME WITH BASEBALL. HE WAS GETTING BETTER AND DIDNT EVEN REACH HIS BEST YEAR.

GALE SAYERS HAD A SHORT CAREER
DIDNT DO A ACTUAL STAT COMPARISON

Deniro, even though I do agree with you that Bo was very dominating for the short time period he played, and even would of been the greatest back ever easily if he had of played football full time, in my opinion, I do not think he should be entered into Hall of Fame. Too short of playing period, and for that stunt he pulled with Tampa by causing them to completely waste an overall No.1 pick that year. He never was completely clear whether he wouldnt sign with them or not, only that he was considering baseball instead. That really put the Bucs behind for the next few years to come.

The hall is for what you did, not what might have been. I agree the sky was the limit for a healthy Bo Jackson. No hall for Bo.

I'd have to say no. He only made one pro bowl in his 4 years of playing.

Yes, if he wouldn't have gotten hurt, he probably would have a great chance of getting in the Hall of Fame but I think that could be said of quite a few players.

No doubt that it sucks for him though, he was a stud.

I say know as well. The same goes for Terrell Davis in my book.

A big NO to Bo Jackson. Too short a period. As for Terrell Davis, I'd say it is questionable. But, if Gale Sayers got it after playing about the same number of years, you gotta consider Davis. JMHO.

I'll be completly honesy with you. If I wouldn't have injured my knee in my first high school football game I would have been the greatest running back in NFL history, not to mention the ten strait 40/40 years in major league baseball. So with this now known, I would like to be placed on next years Hall Of Fame ballot!
