    I'm not really white!

    I'm half beaner, 1/4 FrogCanuck, and 1/4 Irish Drunk! I ran a 48.8 400M in Pasadena one night, and I got blow job on the bus ride home!


    I digress!

    did I mention Jeremy is my hero?

    I forgot to add the rolleyes on to this one. He can't run a 9.9 it's just unpossible. Now it's fixed.
    Move along nothing to see here.

    Those NFLers you speak of who also ran track in College would have given their left testicle to make the olympic team and run for gold. There are just too many fast track guys in the US for the coaches to have to "settle" for a guy who can run a 9.9 when he has 6 guys who can run a 9.8/100m. It really is that close. Yes, those guys who ended up playing football instead have "world Class" speed compared to other countries, but still aren't in the top 10 in the US.

    I'm pretty sure most guys would rather play in the NFL than run track. Something tells me the money and the fame are a little more in the NFL.

    Could they try to do both? Maybe, but you would have to think an NFL training regime is too different from a track regime, meaning when the football season is over the athlete is too far behind to catch up to the top track guys. Also, I bet a lot of NFL teams would try to limit what guys can do in the offseason, and a guy that runs track would get a smaller contract because he has a larger chance of injury.
    I'm in a band. It's called "Just the Tip."

    Based on that 100m time I stand by my 4.4's prediction. Coming right from mogul training I wouldn't be surprised to see a 4.5 or higher. With a time like that and reletive lack of skills his mediocre stock is going to drop like a rock. I hope he does blaze something but I think his future is limited to invited training camps at best.

    The bus was dark, the team was asleep. I pulled my D.O. somewhere on I 5 near Cherry avenue. She was moist, seats were sticky.
