Iran Has a Sub 10 Seconds 100m Man on Their Soccer Team

10.5 is BLAZING. In our medium sized state of 10 million people, my teammate won the Division 1 HS state meet with a time of 10.5. He was a full scholarship wide receiver for one of the major big 10 teams and was on the practice squad for NFL teams.Just look at major D-1 track meets--you actually won't see too many people that are in the low 10's. A general rule of thumb is that the more skill a sport has, the slower the players. Track and Cross Country are pretty much 100% physical and very little skill while golf is on the other end of the spectrum. Soccer is a mix of skill and physical ability but a skillful player can get by with less in the way of speed/strength/endurance.

Come on guys

I am persian, Iam 99% sure I am faster than all the players in my soccer team and I run a 10.9. No soccer player runs under 10.5.

I think roberto carlos can run a 10.6 and he is the fastest.

Don't insult maurice green with saying things like iranian soccer player runs sub 10.

Thank u

No soccer player runs under 10.5? Bullshit. 10.5 is not as fast as you think. It's fast, but not that fast. There are some really quick high school forwards just in the U.S. that can run in the 10.6-10.7 range.

I'm willing to bet 10.5-10.7 is pretty average for a professional forward. Some of the really fast ones can probably run 10.2-10.3. Sub-10.. well, probably not.

Some players look fast because they have great anticipation and a good first step. They consistently get to the ball first, even though they don't have close to under 11 secs speed. Others, like Ronaldo, have great balance and lateral movement speed and are able to beat their man to look faster than they are.

The player with the best out and out sprint speed is easily Theo Walcott. His acceleration is unreal. If he bulked up I think he could actually be a competitive sprinter. Messi agrees with me

6 year old thread guys.

Although I'm going to post. They used to run a series of races each year to find the quickest guy in professional football in the UK.

The final was usually won in about 10.6 to 10.7. Although it was run on grass in football boots.

Some pretty quick guys, but obviously none pushing the 10 second barrier.

I wouldn't trust anything the Iranians say. Nuclear enrichment for peaceful purposes my ass!

Yeah.

Why believe the consensus opinion of the US intelligence community and the IAEA.

Better to listen to Israel and her agents implanted through our political system and our mainstream media. They have always proved so credible. Just don't bring up Israel's illegal and uninspected nuclear weapons program and especially do not bring up how they stole American technology and raw materials to build it.

What else do they want us to believe? I was so happy that they got smoked today.

Mustn't mention Iran without bringing up the Holocaust
