Which NFL/NBA team does he play for and what did he do?
Great music tho from Dennis Coffey, and a fro rivaling Oscar Gamble's. BBJ may have been on Encore Action channel in the last year or two.

I guess my username gives away my thoughts on a dvd release of this classic. I can honestly say it is #1 on my most wanted. While they are at it they should release Cleopatra Jones & Casino of Gold, Superfly, Candy Tangerine Man, The Slams, tick...tick...tick..., and the other 25 films from the era I am waiting for. Thank god for MGM and their Soul Cinema line. I am waiting on them for Blacula and J.D.'s Revenge.

I'm still waiting for "Three the Hard Way". 
Jim Kelly was the man in that flick. I haven't seen it in years. I remember a scene where the cop asks him why his first name was Mister. He said,"'Cause my Mama wanted people to respect me." or something like that. ---and the funky storyline about the racist hate group poisoning the water with stuff that only affects blacks. Crazy ass plot that can only happen in the 70's. I want this on DVD!

I saw BBJ in a theater when it came out in '74. Liked it as a kid then, wouldn't mind a disc of it now.
