Everybody's All-American: Deion Sanders

Deion Sanders is an American Institution. He is the reason why people are so flamboyant in the sports world. He could honestly be regarded as one the greatest natural athletes of all time. Many people are great at playing their particular sport but most aren't great at several.

In the late 80's and early 90's who wouldn't want to be like Deion Sanders? Did you know this dude actually came out with a remix to his Prime Time album? it was released in 2005. Shit man, look at this punk curl. His shit is on point.

Here is a little bit o luv about Deion. Some fast facts:

NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 1995 with the San Fransisco 49ers.

Only man to play in both a World Series and Super Bowl

Played baseball with the New York Yankees 1989-90, Atlanta Braves 1991-94, Cincinnati Reds 1994-95, 1998, 2001, and San Fransisco Giants 1995.

Played Cornerback with the Atlanta Falcons 1989-93, San Fransisco 49ers 1994, Dallas Cowboys 1995-99, Washington Redskins 2000, and Baltimore Ravens 2004-05.

Won 2 Super Bowls: San Francisco 49ers in the 1994, and Dallas Cowboys in 1995.

First man to hit a Major League home run, and score an NFL touchdown in the same week. He first accomplished this feat as a rookie in 1989, with the New York Yankees and the Atlanta Falcons.

Only man to play in an NFL football game and in a Major League Baseball game on the same day.

As far as football is concerned, he is considered to be one of the greatest cover cornerbacks ever. Although he has been through the ringer in his personal life, man if I had his success I might struggle with it as well. I think over all he has handled it well and respected by his peers and other commentators. He is not just a face that people recognize, he has legitimate info to add to any conversation. All of the current and former players look up to this dude.

On a personal note I really liked the interviews he did with AT&T Blueroom. Brian Urlacher and LT, Tony Gonzalez, man they all are happy to see prime. Besides the fact that it is athletes showing off the fruits of their labor. The funny part is Prime's crib is shitting on all of their houses combined. The only one I think was just super tight was Tony Gonzalez. But I think that has more to do with my personal taste than anything. This fool got a 1000 watt smile when everyone else got a 100. Natural lefty, this dude even irons his own clothes. I really like how he inspires people and how the NFL keeps him involved enough to almost let him be like a Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton to troubled players. i.e. Pacman dumb ass. I would not have wasted a drop of sweat on that fool. I would have looked at him the same way shady Larry Merchant looked at Sonny Liston. He was described as an "illiterate, confrontational, ex-con." LMAO... what a dick. I'm still snickering about that one.

As for life outside of football. All you have to say is Pilar.
