Well, he got the royal screw in 2000, but in 2002 he should get even more consideration. He's lost twice this year, some will say. Ok, but both of those losses were to people setting world bests at distances that are not his strength (10k & 20k - he was second in both). His Euro victory in the

10 Exactly correct. I forgot to mention that I could not include hand times because the point scoring system in my db is just for recent use and I didn't have time to reprogram. But 10.1h, 19.83 and 44.5 give Tommie 3567 points. And even after this one could argue whether the points scored in t

this is a stretch, to be sure, but I seem to recall somebody noting that Ryun had a 6M XC time which when "converted" to a 10K made him pretty impressive, albeit not in Aouita's league. gh > From: Ed and Dana Parrot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: Ed and Dana Parrot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: F

for proper historical perspective, think you have to give Tommie Smith (still the best 3-event sprinter ever, IMHO) a nod w/ a couple of converted hand times. Give him 10.34*, 19.83 and 44.64* and he's probably (I don't have Tables handy) around 3600 points, just eyeballing what other people have,

This goes to show what I have always thought - Aouita had the best range of any "world record" caliber distance runner in the past 50 years. If you removed the 800m, I think you'd find many guys like Geb and others who didn't even run an 800 moving into the fray (I suspect Geb would be #1), but t
