tr1 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/sports/14729905.htm Extra points.The Eagles continued to have no comment on whether they inquired about the services of Olympic sprinter Justin Gatlin, but fellow Olympian Jeremy Bloom said: "I'd like to know his [40-yard dash] time. He's obviously a great athlete, and I wouldn't put it past him" to be able to play in the NFL. I guess if a sprinter turned you down, it might be humiliating. :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus87 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Justin Gatlin?! I honestly would be extremely surprised if the Eagles, let alone any football team, went after Justin Gatlin. The man is a rising superstar in the track and field world making almost a million dollars a year in earnings from races alone (let alone his Nike and other contracts) and tied the world record a few weeks ago for the 100 meter sprint. Jeremy Bloom was one thing, but trying to get Gatlin to join your team would be a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
