Through 58,397 votes at the time of this posting, the people have spoken.

Beep, beep!

I'm curious about how fast Leandro could run 100 meters now. It would definitely be under 11 at the start, but after training he could get it under 10, no doubt. He'd be considered another 'tall' sprinter. Not as tall as Bolt though..

The Brazilian Blur strikes again! Gotta love him.
And that Michael Schwartz guy — a helluva blogger journalist. Love that Flash banner ad!
So Suns.

Barbosa has all the tools to be a lockdown defender if he ever applied himself
