Denard Robinson: I could beat Bolt in 40

Post by MgoBlue-LightSpecial »

Good for a laugh.

"I've watched him run, and I'm pretty sure I can beat him in a 40-yard dash," Robinson said at Michigan's media day on Sunday. "I'd get a better start, and I could take him."
I heard that it was determined from the people who determine these types of things that if Usain Bolt ran a 40, he'd clock a 3.9. Just ridiculous. Usain Bolt laughs at SEC speed.

Lemme tell you how much it is in centimeters...

~clicks to an online English/metric conversion site~

~gives a stupid answer~

~realizes he got it wrong~

~takes another stab at it~

~posts it again~

~:crickets:~

~tries posting it a different way~

~:louder crickets:~

~still hasn't answered the question, which had nothing to do with his multiple attempts to convert English to metric and rather was centered around how Euros phrase such things when discussing height~

~gets a stiffy when Smackie plays Foghat just for him~

~stumbles off drunkenly to bed~

btw, Van, I just beat some guy on Yahoo chess with a 1366 rating, me with a lowly 1231. Can you believe this bitch had the nerve to ask for a redo on a move?

Wait, was that you?

I have no doubt there are many that could beat Bolt in a 40. Taller dudes need to get the legs going to reach top speed...in a 40 quickness will cancel out sheer speed.

can't speak to the legitimacy of the guy in that reddit link i posted but he sounded much more intelligent than i am so will assume he was right when he called denard a lying piece of shit, in so many words. his math already had bolt running a faster 40, and that was without accounting for the fact a guy running track sprints has his reaction to the gun included in his final time whereas dudes running 40s are only timed from first twitch to finish line.
