ESPN NFL analyst Mark Schlereth was asked how Olympic gold medalist Usain Bolt would fare in professional football. Schlereth replied, “He would be a terrible football player.” Sure, Bolt is fast, but Schlereth made the point that Bolt’s speed is on a track and without a helmet and pads. He also said that someone would “thunder punch” Bolt and he wouldn’t be able to get off the line.

Check out the video below for all of Schlereth’s thoughts on Bolt in the NFL.

“I know that the medal was not fairly won and that it is dirty,” Johnson said in a column published in The Daily Telegraph on Tuesday. “So difficult as it is, I will be returning it to the International Olympic Committee because I don’t want it. I feel cheated, betrayed and let down.” (Reuters)

Michael Johnson has been known as the fastest man alive. Now he is being known for his integrity. Not as if he wasn’t known for that before, but he has decided to return the Olympic Gold Medal he received in 2000 for the 4×400 relay in Sidney. The others he raced with have had issues with the whole drug thing and he has decided to just not be apart of it. Someone the kids can look up to.
