MADISON, Wis. — In the 1980s, Bo Jackson took the sporting world by storm. In the spring before winning the 1985 Heisman Trophy, he batted .401 for the Auburn baseball team with 17 home runs and 43 RBIs in just 42 games. He later played in the Major League Baseball All-Star game as a member of the Kansas City Royals in 1989 and was selected to the NFL Pro Bowl as a Los Angeles Raider in 1990. Jackson was also the star of a Nike ad campaign titled, "Bo knows."
Well Bo didn't know Red.
