Barry was just magical in his foot work. And was able to amass such greatness while playing for the Lions.

Arguably the greatest athlete in American history is Jim Thorp. He could play darn near any sport. Imo

What about Bo Jackson?


Bo was a great, but Jim Thorpe's achievements are the greatest ever. Way beyond any of the greats mentioned here on this thread.

2 Olympic gold medals in track.
Played professional Football, Basketball, and Baseball.
Voted Worlds greatest athlete for the twentieth century.
4 time All American at 4 positions. ect........
