I also remember a swimmer named Doug Russell - who defeated Mark Spitz for a gold medal back in Mexico, 1968.

Kudos to uta.

But we'll see your bronze medal and raise you a gold one!

Good to see a new member already making noise.

MT's racer from Nigeria ran against Usain Bolt. I think he came in 5th. I'm not sure though.
