I was actually going to bring this up a while back, but I forgot what for. Pretty impressive highlight reel.

He had talent. Too bad he got into trouble with the law as a teen. His stock went down somewhat.

I remember Rickey Henderson said his first love was football & supposedly he had the talent to excel at the next level. He was smart in one respect: he knew baseball would carry less physical risk & more guaranteed caysh.
Then there was Dave Winfield out of the Univ. of Minnesota. He got drafted by the NBA, ABA, MLB & NFL as I recall. I don't believe he ever played football, but I think the Vikings took a chance on him in the later rounds based on his athletic ability.
Sounds like the subject of a new thread & since summer is slow, I'll start one myself.
