The NFL is still puzzled by Barry Sanders’s sudden retirement
Barry Sanders’s 1999 NFL retirement is still remembered bitterly as he was at the verge of becoming the league’s all-time rushing leader. The new Amazon Prime documentary Bye Bye Barry fails to provide deep introspection from the understated superstar, leaving many questions about his motivations and feelings unanswered. The documentary focuses on the familiar NFL Films formula of soaring musical numbers, celebrity interviews, and archival reels. It fails to explore Sanders’s regrets, loneliness, feelings about his father, and the reasons behind his untimely departure from the game. Overall, Bye Bye Barry falls short of providing a profound understanding of the motivations behind Sanders’s retirement.
