functions(you strike me as a pretty smart guy, so it wouldn't take you

>>The succession of marks in the shot are especially disappointing.
The winning distance at Atlanta and Sydney was the same; otherwise,
each was less than in the previous Games and the Athens mark (19.59m)

a half a million is far more harmful than a small men's team that does

True enough, but the reason why football, even football that loses a half

The rule book requires that WRs must run according to, well, the rule book. If
you cheat, the record never happened. Do we consider Ben Johnson a "former" WR
holder? I sure don't.

Yeah, I'm still here. It depends hugely on how the specimens are stored. In

You ran against Eric Roberts? Did his sister Julia show up to cheer him

Also, in high school (in Mississippi I believe) he wasn't known as Eric

I guess if you had to ask, the message wasn't meant for you. ;-)
But as far as I know Suzy Favor-Hamilton is the only person in big time
