I worked for a Track and Field team after my mission. Used to get dudes want me

to get their 100m time. They bragged about how fast they were. I agreed. They both had times close to 13s. I informed them that you usually add a few tenths to a hand time, and then pointed to some girls across the field and said that the girls were faster than them. They didn't bug me after that.

He might be able to. Is Linton an athlete?

Mayor of Cougartown

He's skinny and not packing extra weight, so I think he can do it.

3/30/15 11:16am

also 4.9 isn't that fast for people who are somewhat athletic.

Not necessarily true. People think this all the time. Hand timed, maybe...

Should be able to...

Are you sure about that...here is the data from the five-year NFL combine report

Its possible but not as easy as some people think

The combine 40s are laser-timed

reddead

3/30/15 2:35pm

unless he's hand-timed before and isn't taking the difference into account

icecougar

"More accurate" but "results in slower times."

CosmoK

Well, the point is moot if they use stopwatches for Linton, isn't it?

reddead

Bull crap

Ebolarama

True - they were all hand-timed, though

reddead

I don't know about that. In High School (Texas 5A)

Bob Vance

High schoolers and 40 times are like mormon dudes bragging about how many girls

credfern84

3/30/15 2:02pm

Do you really think Linton's 40 will be laser-timed?

reddead

3/30/15 3:36pm

Good point, he could very well be clocked at 4.9

credfern84

3/31/15 4:57pm

Hand times mean absolutely nothing. Until they run it with a laser, a 40 time

Duke Silver

3/30/15 2:32pm

Exactly. End of story.

mncougar

3/30/15 3:50pm

You think they'll use a laser for Linton? He should manage a 4.9 on a stopwach

reddead

3/30/15 4:12pm

Did they specify if Spencer gets a running start?

Utah's radio guys run a 3.9 40.

Bronco also said that he could beat Spencer in a race. People need to pressure

When is this happening? Please post a link of his run...
