Terence Newman chose to go be a top 5 pick in the NFL over a track sprinter career.

His best time as a senior was 10.20. He would have been a run of the mill sprinter who would make a couple finals at best if he were lucky. He definitely made the right decision.

because you mentioned gatlins 40 time like because his 40 wasn't anything spectacular that a nfl dude with a faster 40 time would beat him in a 100m race.

You mention Demps 40 time before I even said shyt about Gatlin 40 time. Stop it five :stopitslime:


Also, many NFL players are NCAA champions in track. And lot of them nikkas just run track to stay in condition and doesn't really even take track serious.

Imagine if them nikkas would take track more serious than football. :wow:

Black athletes doesn't care about Boxing, Baseball, and Track like the older generation.

compare the 40 yard dash to 100m y'all :mjlol:
thecoli.com

use your head here
the 40 is more a measure for explosiveness it's showing raw tools and potential

the 100m is something that cats train to progress in
these 40 times are coming from cats who spend little to no time working on mechanics stride length all that
the 100m is something cats get better at through progressive overload the 40 is cats showing raw tools

track coaches would trade every last one of their stars to work with the most gifted football/basketball athletes full time

quit tripping b jahahahahaa

Remember college football players doesn't train that much for track because they're playing football. Them nikkas basically just step on the track and run. :russ: Beating nikkas that only train for track all year. :wow:

T-New only training for track and not playing football. :wow:

Top 4
in the whole world only 119 men have run under 10 seconds in history. Hell probaably only 20-25 Americans have ran under 10 seconds in all of history , but anyone football or basketball player with training could do it according to you. Just like anyone can hit 50 home runs with practice and training , or average 25 points a game in the nba


Americans continue to show their ignorance

I wonder if Deion Sanders/Bo Jackson would've made more money training to run under 10 sec over the money they made training to be come Football/Baseball players? :jbhmm:

Both made more money than Carl Lewis and Michael Johnson. :jbhmm:

US women dominate soccer like prime Brazil while our men suck.

Nah they've been dominant in the past but not anymore. There are several teams that are on their level now. Other countries re investing in women's sports also. Basketball is huge over in Europe and now women from the U.S. are going to play over there because they are paid more over there. The days of U.S. women dominating team sports are over. Eventually the world will catch up to them in basketball also.

The fact is this collection of women on our track team is special. Felix is a superstar. Bowie is on her way. Tatiana just won the fukking long jump gold. She's an absurd athlete. Stop with the bullshyt.
