    This question is so easy it was the Juke-machine himself Barry Sanders.He was a very exciting player to watch. I really believe something happened between Barry and his GM or someone in the Lions organization.

    Barry Sanders, he was a great runing back and I wish he would have played at least one more year and made claim to the record.

    It was Barry Sanders, I still don't understand why he retired, I guess the knees just couldn't take it anymore.

    Barry Sanders... very disappointing... one more season (about 1750 yards) would have probably got him there. F^&* Wayne Rogers.
