Deion Vs Bo

[Mr Yu]

Deion looks like he is not playing this week and that brought to mind the question: Which was the better ATHLETE , Bo or Deion?

-For me , it was Bo, one of the few athlete's that matched and surpassed the hype. Deion , for me was more hype then talent. Talented , yes. Was Deion a better athlete than Bo, no.

Closest man to Jim Thorpe we'll see in our lifetime(even if it was for a brief period):
Bo.

-Thorpe was incredible. I think he ran a 10.3 in the 100 yard. Think about that on old sand tracks and no blocks.

Bo Jackson is by far heads and shoulders better.

This shouldn't even be up for debate.

In terms of simply being an athlete I have to go with Deion, however in saying that I cannot say anyone that picks Bo would be wrong.

No question...it's Bo...Bo was a better football, and a better baseball player than Neon Deon, and Bo didn't have to come up with a nickname for himself
