Jahvid Best to run at Olympics

There are bound to be a couple cranky old men that complain that he is completing for St Lucia even though he lives in the United States. But it's well within the rules and I'm happy for him to have found another athletic avenue to compete in after his unfortunate concussion history.

I'm not going to complain that he is doing it, but it is a stupid rule. Unless he is a citizen of "St Lucia" he shouldn't be on their Olympic team.

It doesn't matter...if he couldn't even qualify for the US team he won't be in contention.

His personal best is 10.16. Pretty fast but most likely won't make the semi finals unless he has an amazing race.
 
10.16 is really fast, but way off from what it would take to make the finals.

Calvin Johnson ran a 10.19 at G Tech at 6-5, 235 lbs.
