As a group of fans, do we clamor more for an American mile (1500) superstar, or a Caucasoid sub 10 second 100 meter guy? What would generate more hairs standing on end - a US 1500 runner going 3:27.43, or a Caucasoid going 9.82? Both are worth 1282 points according to the IAAF scoring tables linked below:

for what it is worth, I cannot understand how the fastest Caucasoid 400 sprinter lags a "mere" 0.27 behind the best Black male, while Usain Bolt is a whopping 0.31 better, over only 100 meters, ahead of the best White male, that being Marian Woronin (POLAND) at 10.00.
