I hope that you do not mind me starting a thread on my first post, but I saw this and wondered what swimmers would think about it. I swim, but not competitively.
Anyway, here is the question posted on LetsRun:
"Phelps is a phenomenal athlete.
How many of you runners who ran competitively in college think you could beat him in a foot race?
Any distance from 100 meters to the marathon, your choice."
You can see people's answers on the thread here, but I am interested in hearing what you think as well. This is an interesting question.
Thanks.
Don't forget Dave Winfield. He was drafted in football, baseball and basketball.
That's a great point. Unfortunately with baseball being almost a full time year round job for kids, you don't see that type of overall sport's talent anymore. Seems like of you are really good at baseball you don't even go to college, maybe 2 years in a JC in Florida or something.
