Can any NFL or NBA guy beat Dafne at any distance?

Willie Gault was still faster than her when he was 45, so yes.

Now add....

The list is so much longer than that. Jordy Nelson, for instance, was a 100/200 state champ, 10.5 guy in high school in Kansas. There are third string WRs I've seen run 10.3 and 10.4s in the California state meet.

Wesley Walker

Welsey Walker is 62 and pretty heavy, it would be impressive if he could beat Schippers!

Perhaps you meant Wesley Welker? He could MAYBE go 10.6 in track shape, but I doubt he'd "dust" Schippers over 200m.

I'll go slow, you can do this.

This is about when these guys were actually competing....ok ya with me slugger? I did assume the posters here have enought common sense to get that, I didn't know about you.

Now way can an NBA player run 10.8 or less (could be a couple of NFL players?), and I don't think any NBA or NFL player could beat her in anything over 800 either.

- This idea for a competition would do wonders for our sport ... well done!

Hey chief, maybe you need to review the TENSES of auxiliary verbs so you can answer the question that was ASKED. No one knows obscure NFL players from your generation anyway, gramps.

I hate to break it to you like this half pint but I'm 29. I just read a lot, give it a shot, it's pretty obvious being well read is not one of your strenghts, if you have any.

If Marvin Bracy pans out he will be the fastest player in pro football history, obviously on a whole other level than even Flo Jo.

In track shape some NFL guys could run 10.8. Muscled up for football, no. No NBA guy can run with Schippers.

'sup Larry?

(ps. I know you're not 29 - not even close, in fact - but let's keep that secret between the 2 of us, eh?)

Bob Hayes might take issue--remember Hayes ran on much slower surfaces and his times at sea level are not all that much slower.

I reckon she's faster than (at least) 99.9% of the male population of the planet (which leaves plenty of room for the few males who can run 100 meters faster than 11 flat, or 200 meters faster than 22.1).

Bolt would never break 5 in a mile now. As we have just seen, once two guys get out in front of him, MY HAMMIE, OH MY HAMMIE!!!

Sorry, are you unaware that she was a heptathlete in the olympics two cycles ago? She has run 2:08 in the 800 in a heptathlon...

All those people who claim there is no way bolt could break 5 in the mile, reflect on the fact that schippers has run 2:08 in the 800. I can accept your doubt that he can run sub 5, but not your absolute certainty that he can't.

With limited training, Randy Moss ran 21.1 200m indoors while at Marshall.

I was watching the OJ Simpson documentary on ESPN and I saw him run 10.48 while taking it easy in the last 30 meters. I think OJ would have eventually run in 10.00 with track specific training.
