Really? I think a 4.3 40 is pretty fast.

A guy can be fast but not quick and vice versa.

What? You kidding me. 4.23 isn't fast? http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsbu ... 69212.html

BTW I'm not a pittsburgh fan in the least. But they are a damn good team.

Or you can be quick and fast and run for 1200+ yards splitting carries as a rookie.

Sorry to butt in, but this comment is so ignorant, I feel the need to ridicule it from Jamaica (it's rainy today). As far as straightline speed goes, Willie Parker is probably the fastest RB in the NFL. He doesn't have a whole heck of a lot else going for him, but his numbers from last year show just what raw speed can do for you behind a good OL.


Willie Parker is not especially fast.... Wow.
Roll Along!

Hey, I'm as Browns homer as they come and I wouldn't have made that comment :)

I cannot stand the Steelers or any player on their roster (except Omar). I hope all of them suffer career ending injuries and the Steelers are forced to field an arena team this year.

Still, I think it's pretty obvious that Willie Parker is fast. Anybody watching the SB should know that...the dude was gone once he got 2 yards past the line on his TD run. Hard to say who the fastest RBs are in the league, but Willie is definitely up there. Ahman Green might've had him at one time, but injuries have slowed him. Like J4H said, Parker doesn't have a lot of tremendous attributes, but speed is one of them.

A person who was unfamilure with your posts might feel obligated to school you on how wrong it is to wish injury upon an athlet.
but I know it is just envy :lol:

No doubt, I'm envious of the Steelers. They're the SB champs, and also my team's most hated rival. I was taught at an early age to hate the Steelers, and then I have to see them win the title...very upsetting.

The only one I truly wish injury upon is Roethlisberger, because I just don't like him. I still hold a grudge from his college days. I also think he's a cocky SOB that needs to be knocked down about 5 notches. Plus if he got hurt that'd help Omar get his shot eventually too :)

Big Ben... grudge no way. As I sat there and watched him play for the second time that season and pick us a part in our house he earned my respect. Cocky hell who wouldnt be and if it helps his game i hope it grows.
As for browns...well i love them...they suck real badly, and have for a real long time...but they are my second fav team...I hate being right twice a season...and this year well it looks like the bungholes will beat them twice too. taht is just disgusting...the bungholes over the browns...at least when pit cleans thier clock its ok..but cinici gosh.

I stand corrected. I must have had him confused with someone else.

4.3 is fast.
