Open Challenge to Terrell Owens for 100 Meter Race

 
This week, Terrell Owens was quoted on HBO’s Hard Knocks as saying, “I Could Beat Usain Bolt If I Got a 20-Yard Head Start.” I am not impressed by this at all. I hope an NFL pro-bowl wide receiver could beat Bolt in this race. What I would like to do now is make a challenge to TO. I formally challenge TO to a race. I am a 30-year-old white kid who has run less than 100 miles in my life. To prove how weak TO’s claim is, I bet $25,000 that I can beat Terrell Owens in a 100 meter race, where I get a 20-meter head start. My only stipulations are that: 1) the money goes to a charity of the winners choice and 2) the race happens after the NFL season (I don’t want to get an angry phone call from Jerry Jones wondering how his star receiver blew his hammy.) Really, TO has nothing to worry about. He obviously has the coin to blow on this race. Plus, LeBron James, a much bigger sports star, lost to some shmoe in a game of horse.
