Tecmo Meltdown!!

1) I feel like one day, the only athlete I'll be telling my grandchildren about it Tecmo Bo Jackson. By far the singular most dominant athlete of all time.

2) Greatest defense of all time? How about the Tecmo Bears? Watch them score 70 points by themselves in one half! For me its a tossup between Tecmo Singletary and Tecmo LT for greatest linebacker ever...

3) Here's a montage of the greats. Some key omissions: Bob Golic- nose tackle could run right over just about any center in the game. Bubby Brister- maybe it was a glitch, but he had the lazer arm that was second only to QB Eagles (Randall Cunningham)

4) Seriously, did anyone else know this about Wayne Haddix?? My favorite plays in this clip: injuring both Dalton Hilliard and Iron Head Heyward, then turning right around and covering 4 receivers at once...and getting the pick. Even more impressive is that its not possible for him to face his own quarterback in the game (Vinny Testaverde), making the easy INT's harder to come by.

That used to haunt my dreams, that Raiders team was ridiculous, Bo and Marcus Allen? Unstoppable.
