Message: [QUOTE="JB123, post: 2703794, member: 7203"] You said that Bo Jackson would have been a Hall of Famer in two different sports if he hadn't gotten injured. He actually would have been a Hall of Famer in neither pro football nor pro baseball. He wouldn't have made it in baseball because he simply wasn't good enough. It had nothing to do with football: He didn't miss baseball games to play football. It's conceivable that he could have made the Hall in pro football [U]if[/U] he hadn't played baseball, but if he had done that, then we wouldn't be discussing him in this thread. In that scenario -- which is the only scenario that would have given him a shot at the NFL Hall of Fame -- he obviously couldn't have made the baseball Hall of Fame because he wouldn't have been playing baseball at all.
