my thoughts too. AD isn't even the fastest player in the nfl....let alone the world. :shock:

i feel like he could be a legitimate olympic hurdler with the right training. short distance. wonder if that would be something he was interested in. that said....i learned a long time ago to not bet against this dude and ANYTHING he says.
i'm ready for a beer.

Honestlly, he could announce that he will be the first man to run to Mars, and I would have a hard time believing he couldn't do it.

I don't even think he's the fastest guy on the team. I'll give that to Harvin. Actually on a track, it might be Josh Robinson.

Well, he didn't say the 100 meters, which he doesn't have a chance. When 7 out of eight guys run under ten seconds( Powell pulled his hamstring and pulled up lame) you gotta be cheetah fast to be in that field. He said the 2 and the 400 meters. Like the 1, he has no chance in the 2 either to be honest. Like his chances in the 400 though due to the fact that he runs on an acre-long field which means that he should have some endurance...
