Agreed he was the original SUPERFREAK before Randy Moss.Some ppl on YouTube feel that Adrian Peterson is a younger version of the man who terrorized NFL defenses in the 80s.I'am sorry Peterson is a great RB but he is not Bo Jackson not even remotely close.To me Peterson is the second coming of OJ Simpson the original 2K man!!!!

I have no idea???? I must take back what I said Bo was the SUPERFREAK of the 80s but the ORIGINAL SUPERFREAK came along in the 50-60s Jim Brown!!!!!

Yes, Brown was also an all-american in lacross. Then you go back to Jim Thorpe, who won the olympic pentathalon and decathalon, college football star, pro football star and professional baseball player.

Minnesota had it's own superfreak in Bobby Marshall, college football all-american, St Paul Colored Gophers baseball star, also playing for the Chicago Giants and John Donaldson's All-Nations team. He was the first African American to play in a NFL game, a 40 year old rookie. Member of the college football hall of fame.

I'm kind of a sports historian due to dealing in sports memorabilia. Learned about Marshall when I sold a high school baseball photo of his Minneapolis Central baseball team. I have some All-Nations letters in my personal collection, from when they played in my hometown in North Dakota. Still looking for something from Satchel Paige's days in Bismarck, when they won the Semi-pro championship with him.

Anything with Paige's name attached to it is instant gold!!!

Best athlete in the 20th century.

Babe Didrikson Zaharias

She was also a world class seamstress, harmonica player, and singer recording several songs with Mercury records.

I would put LPGA great Patty Berg up against her. She played QB on the same youth football team as Bud Wilkinson, Wilkinson played tackle. She taught Bud how to play football. She also played forward in hockey, Bud was Goalie, outfield in baseball while Bud pitched.

Berg won 15 majors in the LPGA including a couple with Babe 2nd. Babe won 10 majors.
