Type: Base Card
Acquired: Pulled From Pack
I remember pulling this card from a pack of Bowman in 1991 and being in awe of the fantastic photograph on the front. It shows Bo at his shiftiest on the gridiron ready to bust off another unbelieveablt touchdown run! Typically Bo is known for running over & bulldozing defenders, but it was his quickness and ability to cut on a dime that gave him those scoring opportunities. Power, speed and the ability to slip away from defenders, can you imagine if he was able to play in the NFL fulltime in his prime?
It's probably not a popular opinion, but I think that the '91 Bowman football set is far superior to it's baseball counterpart.
ReplyDeleteThe fronts of the cards are very similar, but I agree that in the backs of the cards department...the Football product beats the MLB.
