November Cover: Bolt or Ritzenhein!?

[Brian]

Let's see. American runs a nice 5000. Jamaican crushes his own world records in two races.

The real question is what kind of shot will they use for Mr. Bolt? A start? A finish? the podium? standing next to the clock?

I think a cover shot of Bolt and Spearmon good-naturedly jawing at the finish of the sprint relay in Zurich would be cool.

[Gets the US in there, too, for domestic sales purposes.]

Wouldn't it be insane from a marketing perspective to go with Ritz?

Exactly.

Ritz is the US, Bolt is the world.

But! That doesn't stop T&FN from featuring Ritz sometime in the next few months **along with an in-depth 2-page interview or feature!!**

Hint, hint, hint...!

Sort of like the 1975 "Pre: The Summer of His Discontent" only completely the opposite..."Ritz: the Summer of His Content" (content pronounced either way appropriate!).

Yeah, those photos would make a nice cover.

I prefer the one of him and Berlino drawing the bow.

Either that or Berlino crashing into the cart with Melaine Walker on his back in some bizarre attempt to stifle the Jamaicans sprint dominance.

As a distance romantic, would love to see Ritz grace the cover of Track & Field News for his American Record, 5000m run, however, perhaps it would be hard to un-seat triple gold medallist, 9.58/19.19 Bolt Mania...

:roll:
