- Deion does lots of things that other
- athletes can only dream about. In 1989,
- his rookie year in both football and
- baseball, Deion did something that no
- one had ever done before. On
- September 5, while playing for the New
- York Yankees, Deion hit a home run. A
- few days later, he signed to play football
- for the Atlanta Falcons. On September
- 10, in the first quarter of his first game
- with the Falcons, Deion returned a punt
- 68 yards for a touchdown. He became
- the only athlete ever to hit a home run in
- the major leagues and score a touch-
- down in the NFL in the same week!
