Message: [QUOTE="JB123, post: 2698340, member: 7203"] Not even close. Bo never scored more than 6 touchdowns in a season in the NFL, and there was only one season in which he accounted for even 800 yards from scrimmage. In baseball, his greatest achievement was once finishing 10th in the AL MVP voting -- a feat from which he regressed the next year, which was all before his injury. He had low on-base percentages, missed dozens of games every year, and played a non-vital defensive position (i.e., not catcher, shortstop, second base, or center field). His best attribute was slugging, but only once did he crack the AL's top 10 in slugging percentage for a season. Based on his pre-injury performance, there is no reason to believe he was going to be anything close to a Hall of Famer in either MLB or the NFL. [/QUOTE]
