I remember the article on Darrell Green running the 4.43 on his 50th birthday...

A true burner for sure......Green was faster for a longer period of time and with pads on of course.

I'm pretty sure I can still run a 40.
At least I KNOW I can drink a 40.

The whole Raiders team was lightning. Bo was 75 speed. Sam Graddy was 63 with Gault (even if he was programmed to not be a good receiver with like 19 catching). Marcus Allen, Mervyn Fernandez and Tim Brown were all 50 or 56. I loved plugging all six in at halfback (screw passing with all this speed) and seeing if I could get all of them to be at the top of the league in rushing yards.
Yes, I am a geek.
