Trivia
Sanders left football healthy, having gained 15,269 rushing yards (the most ever by any NFL player in a 10-year span). He retired within 1,457 rushing yards of Walter Payton's career rushing mark of 16,726 yards. It has been speculated that Sanders would have surpassed the record if he had not retired early.

Quotes
Eminem: I've seen every documentary on Barry Sanders that there is to see, and I've never walked away feeling like I knew why he walked away.

Great movie!

This is a great movie. I only gave it a 9 (instead of 10) because that garbage J. Hill is so prominent in the movie. Otherwise, fantastic. I grew up during this time and have always been a huge football fan. Even though I am a lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan and Emmett was our guy when Sanders was playing, I have always respected Barry Sanders for his abilities and what he was able to accomplish. Although I, along with so many others at the time, could not understand why he walked away when he did, I now understand so much more and have such a great respect for him. He was an amazing athlete and is a very humble man.
