If my mother put on a helmet and shoulder pads and a uniform that wasn't the same as the one I was wearing, I'd run over her if she was in my way. And I love my mother.

Whenever I wasn't watching the planes, I was playing community baseball, football, or something like that.

I'm the type of person, I cross the bridges once I get to 'em. I don't try to plan my life three, four months in advance, because you don't know if tomorrow's promised to you.
Bo Jackson
Image
I am a firm believer in if you can't get it the old fashioned way, you don't need it.

I was always an Alabama fan growing up, but when the Alabama recruiter told me I would probably not be able to play until the end of my sophomore year, or the beginning of my junior year.

I was always the fastest and strongest kid in my school so events like the 100 meter and discus throwing attracted me. I could throw the discus for great distance s without the proper spin and throw technique.
Bo Jackson

Image
The first game was against Wake Forrest - I'll never forget that game.
Bo Jackson
Image
Just let me do what I'm doing, and then when all of this is up, then you can say how my career was. Don't try to sum up my career in one or two seasons. Let me finish it first.
Bo Jackson
Image
I was the type of guy that used to get up in the morning and go out and just out run everybody on the field without stretching or warming up or anything.
Bo Jackson
Image
The way strength and conditioning has helped me now is that I make it a point to go to the gym everyday if I can.
Bo Jackson
Image
Well, back when I was training, probably the only nutritious thing on the market was Gatorade - that's all that we knew.
Bo Jackson
Image
I love going out and doing new things.
Bo Jackson
Image
I hate to blow my own horn, but I gave a lot of people fits.
Bo Jackson
Image
By doing that and being very competitive, the grown-ups started telling me even back before I started playing organized ball that I was too physical and too advanced for the kids my own age.
Bo Jackson
Image
I think everyone would love to see Jeff Gordon lose or get run into the wall, but I think he uses that - similar to me.
