I was just cleaning out a box in my garage and I found my autographed copy of "The Boz" from like 1990.



Figured a lot of you youngins wouldn't know about or remember him because a lot of you were still in diapers during his college days. He was a huge bust in the NFL but had some infamous incidents in college.

*On more than one occasion he referred to the NCAA as the "National Communists Against Athletes." He wore a shirt bearing that slogan during the 1987 Orange Bowl following the 1986 season. Banned from that game because of steroid use, Bosworth unveiled the shirt while standing on the sidelines to the shock and outrage of many, including his own coach, Barry Switzer.

*Prior to his entering the NFL supplemental draft, Bosworth had sent letters to various NFL teams stating that, if they drafted him, he wouldn't report to their training camp and he wouldn't play for them.

*I can't remember exactly what he said, but on more than one occasion he called UCLA players fairies and queers because of their unis. (His nephews now both play LB for UCLA hahahaha)

*After being drafted by the Seahawks, Bosworth sued the NFL for the right to wear #44 (the number he wore in college). Bosworth lost the case and was forced to wear #55 in the pros.

He is a realtor with Sotheby's in Malibu now. His email address is Brian.Bosworth@sothebysrealty.com

Please feel free to add anything you'd like. I don't have the time but some pics of his hair would be awesome.

I was gonna rip him for being a fucking realtor. Then I saw he is working for Sotheby's and selling houses in Malibu. Not a bad place to work, and I am sure he makes some major coin off selling those houses.

yeah, thats it

Bo didn't really run OVER Boz. He kinda ran through his arms. What makes the video seem worse than it is, is the fact that Bo scored a TD on it(from about 4 yards out mind you). If that play is on any other part of the field, its a 5 yard gain.
