Fantasy men's 4x100

[Guest]

Who would be your fantasy 4x100 relay team? All have to be from one country. How about Jon Drummond to Tommie Smith to Michael Johnson to Carl Lewis?

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

Well, you have to beat all the British,Jamaican, and Canadian posts I expect to see (the old Surin, Bailey, etc. team was no slouch), so here goes.

USA- Robert Lee Hayes to Maurice Greene to Michael Johnson to Carl Lewis. (alternate- Tommie Lee Smith)

USA- (fem.)- any Tennessee State 4 x 100 relay team from 1956-64, including the 1960 team of Isabelle Daniels, Margaret Matthews, Lucinda Williams, and Wilma Glodean Rudolph, who were college teammates.

USA (fem.) for speed- Torrence to Ashford to Jones to Griffith. We'll take on all comers.

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

How about
60's
Carlos, Hayes, Hines, Smith.
(Alternates: Greene, Sime, Carr, ).

70's
McTear, Riddick, Hart, Williams.
(Alternates: Clancy Edwards, James Sanford, Reggie Jones).

80's
Flloyd, Marsh, C. Smith, Lewis).
(ALternates: Lattany, Grady, DeLoach).

90's
(Mitchell, Burrell, M. Johnson,Greene)
(Alternates: Drummond, Jeff Williams, Cason),

00's
Montgomery, B. Williams, Capel, Gatlin).
(Alternates: JJ. Johnson, C. Miller, Patton and a 16 year old prodigy who is not known nationally yet who will be 21 by the 2008 Olympics and will have run a 9.80 and 19.60 by then).

How about Kelli White to Marion Jones to Gwen Torrence to FloJo. That's a smokin quartet. How about MJ to Carl Lewis to MO Greene to Tim Montgomery?

80's
Flloyd, Marsh, C. Smith, Lewis).
(ALternates: Lattany, Grady, DeLoach).
90's
(Mitchell, Burrell, M. Johnson,Greene)
(Alternates: Drummond, Jeff Williams, Cason),

I'd have to make a change here.
80's
Floyd, DeLoach, Smith, Lewis
(alternates: Lattany, Grady, Baptiste).
90's
(Mitchell, Burrell, M. Johnson, Greene).
(Alternates: Marsh, Drumond, Cason).

I changed this because Mike Marsh's peak years were in the early 90's.

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

Aside from Stanley Floyd, does anyone know may who would have benn the six desinated runers fro the U.S. $x 100 team in the boycotted 1980 Olympics. I believe Willie Gault finished 5th in the 100 put Im' unsure of the other places. (I was so mad I kind of tuned things out that year).

Lead Off Jon Drummond-----10.05
2nd leg: Tim Montgomery---8.79
3rd Leg: Michael Johnson--9.10
Anchor: Maurice Greene---8.75

New World Record- 36.69

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

#1 Track Stunna, I like that team too. However, If I had those 4 i would switch Montgomery and Greene. Greene and Drummond work with each other every day and Greene has the longest stretch of the race.Greene has the better 200 time,even though there is no curve here. Plus, Montgomery has been involved in a couple of the 4x100's missed handoff incidents before. He seems to be a shaky passer at best. I would rather have him run anchor where all he has to do is get the baton. You're right if the passes are good the wr is broken.

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

This much I know:

1980 "Olympic Trials"

1. Stanley Floyd
2. Harvey Glance
3. Mel Lattany
4. Carl Lewis

I don't think James Sanford or Calvin Smith ran, I am not sure about Steve Williams, Willie Gault or Houston McTear.

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

To my opinion, the best US all-time 4X100 m
relay would be potentially this one:

1- Leroy BURRELL (1991)
2- Maurice GREENE (2001)
3- Carl LEWIS (1983)
4- Bob HAYES (1964)

Total: 36"5

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

WHY would you use Maurice from 2001. He still was winning but he was injured that year.

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

What's up Wayne? How's school going for you? Who would your fantasy 4x100 be?

[waynehobley]

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100

1- Leroy BURRELL
2- Maurice GREENE
3- Micheal Johnson
4- Carl Lewis

All at the point when they set their World Records in Micheal Johnson's case in 1996 Olympics form.

Re: Fantasy men's 4x100
