Why the heck do we even still contest the javelin?
If we got rid of the javelin, kids who can throw well would be relegated to becoming football quarterbacks and baseball pitchers.

A kid got hit in the head with a jav at the 1999 Washington Sate meet... that was pretty wild.
"It wasn't real painful. ... I was very lucky in that it didn't hit any blood vessels, nerves, ligaments or tendons," McGeeney said.
Was kinda lucky it didn't hit a bone either.
