Deion Sanders[1] played professional football and baseball at the same time. Interesting little tidbit: On October 11, 1992, Sanders played in a Falcons game at Miami and then flew to Pittsburgh, hoping to play in the Braves' League Championship Series game against the Pirates that evening and become the first athlete to play in two professional leagues in the same day. Sanders ultimately did not, however, appear in the baseball game that night. [1]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deion_Sanders http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deion_Sanders
