    In his "prime" he could shut anyone down.

    yea, plus Deion played baseball too. I like the Deion that played for Atlanta the best though.

    but who knew he got his nick name "Primetime" playing basketball in H.S.?

    Darrell Green was just as good a cover corner, and could return punts as well when asked. Beat the Bears during the playoffs with one during their 87 Championship run.

    James Francis Thorpe was the greatest athlete of the 20th Century until Deon came along.

    didn't play offense though. and deion has two rings.

    deion is my all-time favorite athlete. not many players -- in any sport -- that i always want to watch when they are playing.

    each time he went back for a punt at fsu, you knew there was a good chance it was going to the house. he just toyed with andre rison when msu played in tallahassee. dominated the country's top receiver.

    Not a huge fan, but you gotta give him some props! Do you think he makes the HOF?
