mph treadmill run wows Authentic Jimmie Ward Jersey Internet
Robert Gill, a rookie www.49ersofficialnflauthentic.com/authentic-carlos-hyde-jersey.html football wide receiver with the Arizona Cardinals, can run at speeds approaching the Olympic sprinter's best, and he has the video to prove it. A clip showing Gill running 25 miles per hour on a treadmill that was posted on YouTube on June 25 has garnered nearly 2,000,000 views.
Bolt, the fastest man in the world and reigning Olympic 100 meter champion, topped out at 27.78 mph when he set the current 100 meter record by finishing in 9.58 seconds in Berlin in 2009.
Gill jogged at 10 mph Authentic Carlos Hyde Jersey while chatting with Savannah Guthrie and Willie Geist about his feat on Wednesday.
"When you're running with speed, you've got to push yourself to the limit, so that's what I do,'' he said. "When you run as fast as I do, you want to push yourself to the limit to go faster, so 25 miles per hour was the next level for me.''Robert Gill, running at a 25 mph clip on the YouTube video that has gone viral.
Gill's blazing speed prompted the Cardinals to give the former Arena Football League player a three year contract at the advanced age, football wise, of 29. Entering June, he was the oldest rookie on any team's roster in the NFL. Gill only played one year of high school football and was more known as a point guard in basketball and a runner specializing in the 400 meter event during stints at a junior college and Texas State University.
In addition to his treadmill exploits, Gill has been clocked at a blazing 4.19 seconds in the 40 yard dash. That would've tied the fastest time of any player at this year's NFL combine before the NFL draft.
"Speed kills,'' he said. "The Arizona Cardinals fell in love with speed, so I'm going to make the most of it this year.''
Gill's video even prompted a response from former NFL wideout and reality TV star Chad Johnson, who posted his own treadmill www.49ersofficialnflauthentic.com/authentic-jimmie-ward-jersey.html video on YouTube showing him running 24 miles per hour on an incline.
How fast humans can run is up for debate. Stanford biologist Mark Denny told Popular Science he believes the fastest is 9.48 seconds in a 100 meter race, 0.10 faster than Bolt's record. Peter Weyand, a biomechanics professor at Southern Methodist University, believes it's possible for a human to run in the low 9s for 100 meters, according to the magazine.
Josey ready to Mike Evans Womens Jersey prove himself in http://www.officialbuccaneersnflauthentic.com/authentic-akeem-spence-jersey.html NFL
King marks returns of bodies to the NetherlandsDownton Abbey Portrait SessioniParty: 'Seussical' makes its Muny debutCards lose to Tampa Bay 7 2Two Spider Men visit St. Louis Children's HospitalA salute to veteransCOLUMBIA, Mo. Henry Josey was 428 yards away from becoming the most prolific running back in Missouri history when he decided he was done playing college football. One more season with the Tigers could have immortalized Josey as one of the program's greatest offensive players.But in the days following his junior season, Josey had to ask himself: Was playing a brutal position for another year in the Southeastern Conference a position that's increasingly devalued in the NFL worth risking a professional career?With a young son to support and Mizzou's most famous surgically repaired knee to protect, Josey decided shortly after the Cotton Bowl to enter the NFL draft, which begins Thursday night and concludes Saturday.Josey, who has split time the last few months training in Florida and Texas, insists he'll be happy no matter how the weekend unfolds as long as he gets a chance to make an NFL roster."There's no disappointment in anything I do anymore, because I've gotten the opportunity to play this game again," Josey said in a phone interview. "Just getting drafted will be awesome."A year ago, Josey was still months away from launching his comeback season from a 2011 knee injury that could have ended his career. Instead, after missing all of 2012, he started all 14 games for Mizzou last fall, ran for 1,166 yards sixth most in MU history and scored the most important touchdown of a 12 win season, a 57 yard blast against Texas A on Nov. 30 to clinch the SEC Eastern Division.Despite a lighter workload than his peers in the record book, Josey finished his career ranked fifth on http://www.officialbuccaneersnflauthentic.com/authentic-mike-evans-jersey.html Mizzou's career rushing list with 2,771 yards on 395 carries. The four players ahead of him quarterback Brad Smith and running backs Zack Abron, Brock Olivo and Devin West averaged 686 carries for their college careers.At the NFL combine, Josey won $10,000 from adidas for clocking the fastest 40 yard dash (4.43 seconds) among players wearing the company's shoes. Only two running backs ran faster times.But at 5 foot 8 and 195 pounds, Josey figures he'll have to earn work as a third down back who can catch passes and block pass rushers."That's when all the craziness starts happening with blitzes and stuff," said Josey, who will watch the draft this weekend in Angelton, Texas, surrounded by family, including 3 year old son Henry Jr. "That's something I'm prepared to do."To illustrate that point, Josey's agents produced a five minute video of 2013 plays featuring Josey as a blocker or receiver out of the backfield."Instantly, it's a role I could have, but I definitely don't go in there saying, 'Hey, I'm a third down back,'" Josey said. "I'm an every down back, and I'll prove that as the years go on.""I'm just ready for it," Josey said. "Football is something I've done all my life, and I know how Austin Seferian-Jenkins Womens Jersey the running back role goes. . I don't feel like I'll have a problem playing in the NFL and staying for a long time."
draft visits with ER internship
A little blood does not scare Laurent Duvernay Tardif.
Not even a lot of it, actually. Blood is "cool," he says.
It's not so much because the feisty offensive tackle from Montreal has a purposefully nasty temperament on the football field one of the reasons he has been called the fastest rising prospect prior to the NFL draft, which goes May 8 10 in New York City.
Rather, it's because he has been interning this spring in the pediatric emergency room at Montreal Children's Hospital. Duvernay Tardif is a medical student at McGill University, one of the world's premier public research institutions whose med school is consistently ranked among the top 20 in the world.
After missing the winter semester to live in Knoxville, Tenn., and train for pre draft workouts in front of NFL talent scouts, the 23 year old returned to Montreal in mid March. He entered the fourth year student rotation in the ER at the children's hospital, and not just as an observer.
"It's treating kids from, like, four months to 17 years old," Duvernay Tardif said of his first stint (eight shifts in 10 days). "Mostly orthopaedic stuff like fractures, and viral. Some cool stuff with concussions, bleeding and things like that.
"But it's a different approach than treating adults, because a little kid won't talk to you he'll only cry so you really have to rely on vital signs, fever, those things. But I like it. It's really cool."
Much like his football abilities, Duvernay Tardif's English was spotty at Brandon Linder Youth Jersey best when he enrolled at McGill four years ago.
"I really wasn't speaking much English at all," said the francophone
from the South Montreal community of Mont Saint Hilaire. "That's why in that first year, I found pre med really, really hard."
At McGill, there's only a year of pre med. You have to pass that to qualify for full med school studies thereafter.
So, really, if the prospect of doing that in an unfamiliar language at Canada's traditionally top ranked university didn't faze him, or ultimately stumble him, then how daunting can a pool of blood be?
Duvernay Tardif speaks fluent English now, and not with as heavy an accent as you'd expect from a francophone only four years into this language.
As a youngster, Duvernay Tardif played soccer and basketball, and often went cross country skiing during those long Quebec winters. He never played football for his high school. Instead he got his start in the sport at age 15 in the Montreal equivalent of a Pop Warner league.
After high school he was a defensive lineman for three years at Coll Andr in CEGEP a French acronym for the post secondary level of education in Quebec that functions as a segue, of sorts, between high school and university.
CEGEP football occasionally produces top level NCAA players, such as Michigan running back Tim Biakabutuka in the 1990s and centre Philip Blake at Baylor from 2010 12.
After CEGEP, it wasn't until Duvernay Tardif completed his freshman year at McGill that he switched from D line to offensive tackle.
"We played field and boundary in my first two years on offence, so I was playing both left and right tackle," he said. "Last year we switched to straight left and right, and I was left tackle."
It was after the 2012 season that Duvernay Tardif became convinced he should delay his plan to become a professional sports doctor so he could try to become a professional sports participant.
His frame 6 foot 5 and 315 pounds and athleticism for such a big man are highly sought after attributes in the NFL. But Duvernay Tardif had to upgrade his strength.
Before winter 2013 he could bench press only 20 reps of www.officialauthenticjaguars.com/authentic-brandon-linder-jersey.html 225 pounds. He hit the gym hard for the next five months and, by late spring, could bench 35 reps. He can now do as many as 40.
At his McGill pro www.officialauthenticjaguars.com/authentic-allen-robinson-jersey.html day for NFL and CFL scouts in late March, Duvernay Tardif did 34 reps. Only six of 50 offensive linemen benched more at the NFL scouting combine in February.
In other combine compliant speed and athleticism drills, Duvernay Tardif similarly rated at or near the top of this year's entire NFL offensive linemen rookie class.
Talent evaluators from nine NFL teams attended his pro day, and chatted him up afterward.
"What they were saying is that I'm a good athlete and I move super well for my weight," Duvernay Tardif said. "For sure my technique is not perfect because it's only been three years that I'm playing O line.
"The big question mark for them is just the level of competition I played against."
Indeed, can an offensive linemen from Canadian university football, who because of his Allen Robinson Youth Jersey demanding med school studies practised only once a week last season, really be selected as high as the third or fourth round as many draftniks are now predicting?
It appears so.
"I don't know that there's anybody that's too raw," Arizona Cardinals general manager Steve Keim told QMI Agency at the NFL annual meeting. "As long as you have the skill set, and you have the desire and the passion, you certainly have a chance to develop into a real player."
