I'm sure you were quite the stud at 16 ::) Pretty manly of you taking shots at a teenager though. Fuck, give a guy a computer and he'll say anything.

I didn't realize teenagers are off limits Jose

Anyone catch it tonight? Great story on Brian Bosworth.

Interesting to see him today with a teenage son and mellowed out in middle age.

in terms of personal growth as an adult or any maturity gained its pretty bad at age 50 or so to be running around as the 'the boz'now in bbing terms being that way is the norm'meathead'for life...

He wasn't a true bust.  He was actually pretty good when he played but he was too reckless in his style that led to injuries too soon.

It seems like there are two camps on Boz. The first and larger say he was an outright bust while the second will say he was actually a pretty decent linebacker whose body just broke down on him.

I don't know because I never remember seeing him play, it was a little before my time.

Seen all the 30 for 30's mentioned in this thread. My favorite's are the The U part 1 and 2. Another one that Billy Corben also did that is excellent is Broke. All the aro athletes that ended up broke and how the got there.

You do realize Friday Night Lights...
The book is a good read. I would recommend it.
No, I didn't. Just remember reading somewhere that, that RB character in a movie was Dupreesque.
Might be some discussion board :)

Yeah I was really stoked when the movie came out because I had already read the book a couple times and really enjoyed it.

That same guy(Boobie Miles) is living out in a small west texas town driving a fork lift with a few kids last time I heard.

There's a part on the dvd where they show some of the other real life characters and what they were doing/living at the time of the dvd release a few years back.

What makes the SMU 30 for 30 even more fascinating is that it happened to such a small private school, imo.

He was a great college linebacker, then he started calling himself "The Boz"  ::) , then he got made a bitch forever by Bo Jackson, then raised a son who chooses to be a fruit pop.  Now you don't have to sit through all the commercials.  You're welcome.

It's always funny when these supposed alphas turn out to have a flamboyantly fruity son. I bet there's a few posters on here that fit that category. He either wasn't there for him when he was growing up, so he grew up hating his father and wanted to be the exact opposite or was forced into sports at an early age when all he wanted was to be upstairs in his room painting "homo things".

Good point...I also think the "fruity" run media likes to find these types of people and really push them through...

Especially ESPN. Surprised they didn't want Magic's flamboyant, fat, gay son in his 30 for 30 "The Announcement" about him having full blown AIDS
