    Just so people realize, Metcalf is tight end size at 6'4" 230 pounds. Bolt is a freak of nature at 6'5" 207 pounds.

    Would have run faster if his name were MetThigh.

    That joke went right over your head. lol.

    Ben Johnson. Roids. Big. Compared to athletes of the day, he looked like the Hulk. Nowadays everybody and their mother is probably on similar drugs in track and other sports.

    Any man who runs a 100 faster than Flo Jo's world record (10.49) is fast AF.

    Side discussion: Has another woman really come close to FJ's record? It's been over 30 years now I believe.

    Not too many men can approach that record. LOL.

    What does everybody think about that record? I swear there's got to be something fishy going on about that. I stopped following track and field after the Ben Johnson scandal for the most part, but FloJo's record was the one that had me saying "wth is going on?!" It makes it even weirder that she just up and quit the sport when they announced random testing from what I remember. Then she died suddenly.

    In her 200m record, you can see her celebrating and smiling with like 10 meters left in the race. I thought I read once that she ran the 2nd 100m in something like 10.1 or something.... if true... LOL.

    Marion Jones ran in the 10.6's .... and then was busted for PED's. lol. In women's circles there's a group that just wants to erase FloJo's record, but she was never caught (assuming she was using), so there it sits.
