Re: Usain Bolt

He just won the 200 and cemented himself as the best sprinter in history. Actually ran through the finish line this time before celebrating.

Definitely cocky enough to be an NFL WR.

No because it's considered illegal touching in Jamaica, unless he is the keeper.

Re: Usain Bolt

100 meters = 9.69 seconds
36.576 meters (40 yards) = 3.54 seconds

However, that's not accurate. You'd have to break his run down in order to figure out how fast he ran the first 36.576 meters of the race...

Yeah they had this breakdown on ESPN..against combine times in the 40 which the fastest in the last two years was 4.2..either way he would be below 4.0. Maybe a 3.9

Re: Usain Bolt

I don't know if he could break 4.0- coming out of a start position, it takes a good twenty to thirty meters (even for the fastest man on earth) to hit top speed. His average speed/meter is ridiculous (thus showing the high probability that he should be able to clock a 3.9). But the mid-latter part of his sprints are where the time flies due to acceleration.

40 yards is just too short of a distance to do that... then again, I wouldn't be entirely shocked if this guy could pull it off hehehe... * I think Darrell still owns the record at 4.15.
