More quotes by Bo Jackson
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
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
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
If I miss anything about the sport, it's the camaraderie of old teammates.

Bo Jackson
I've always played with kids that were five, six, seven years older than me.
Bo Jackson
I struck out with two men on base. I was so angry, so frustrated, I turned and without even thinking about it, snapped my bat over my thigh. The bat split right in half. Afterward, reporters asked me if it was the first time I'd ever broken a bat over my thigh. I broke an aluminum bat over my knee in college, I said. (I was just kidding).
Bo Jackson
Don't plan to repent at the 11th hour - you may die at 10:30.
Bo Jackson
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.
Bo Jackson
I hate to blow my own horn, but I gave a lot of people fits.
Bo Jackson
It is better to give a lick than receive one.
Bo Jackson
The only people I know getting in high places by running their mouth are politicians.
Bo Jackson
I'll never worry about not being successful. I'll just take it one day at a time, one season at a time. And play as hard as I can.
Bo Jackson
The first game was against Wake Forrest - I'll never forget that game.
