They said that Little Barry runs the 40 in 4.31. thats faster then his pops. They said a little taller, but has more top speed.
Should be interesting watching Stanford this year. |

He isn't built like him or has his running style, I hate to make this comparison but his style is more like Charles than his Dad's.

Yeah. But at least this kid has real talent and could be something special. Its rare that kids of famous great athletes do well in the pros. Seems like little Barry has a chance to be pretty good. Some of his plant and goes looks like his dad though.

I saw 3 or 4 plays in that video that would lead to 15 yards personal foul penalties now.

My all-time favorite player to watch. No one ever has or ever will run like him.

Barry Sanders is getting a lot of love in this thread. I was a big fan of his until he decided to totally **** over his team and his fans by abruptly retiring at the start of training camp without even bothering to tell ANYONE. He just fled the country without telling anybody where he was. The Lions opened training camp, and the big question was "Where is Barry Sanders?". After everyone wondered for several days what the hell had happened, he FINALLY faxed a letter to his hometown newspaper announcing his retirement.
He walked away from football at the age of 30 and still in the prime of his career. I'd be just fine with that if he'd had the guts to tell his team that he was going to do that. But he didn't. He was a total coward who showed a complete lack of respect for his team and his fans. The Lions gave him an $11 million signing bonus as part of his $35 million contract just two years prior to that, and they deserved better than that. That single act destroyed the goodwill of a lot of fans of his. |

Barry wanted to win a championship, and the team was never in a position to even sniff that, despite what Barry did to help out. I read a bit of his book, but that was years ago. |

I was at that game sitting in the end zone. I've never seen a guy make starts/stops/cuts like Sanders. I didn't appreciate it until I saw it with my own eyes. It was a complete contrast to Okoye and Word that just pounded on people.
