Prime Time take II

I remember when Dion Sanders first hit the big time during an age where the two sport player was still mildly popular we had PrimeTime. I always thought of him as an overrated football player- I think I witnessed him make one open field tackle ever. But no doubt he had wheels and eye for the ball. As a baseball player he was able to cover the outfield well, but only a so-so hitter. Of course this compares to Bo Jackson who I think was easily the best 2 sport player outside of Jim Thorpe. For a short few years Bo know sports. I still remember the All Star Game where Tony Larussa batted him leadoff to 'send a message' He blasts the ball straight out over the center field wall, it was awesome. Unfortunately his career was cut short on a sideline run in a first round playoff game when he fell on his hip; and never recovered. But for that shooting star moment we had a truly remarkable athlete.
Tonight (again) President Obama goes before a struggling nation, the economy reeling, the stock market in the tank, and millions of frustrated Americans looking for hope- we really need him to hit this one straight over the wall. To do this he has to do two things- fight fears about deflation (or worse hyper inflation) while at the same time provide some hope and confidence. I hope he can- my savings and holdings can't take much more of this. And its starting to go beyond an inconvenience.
