Would you rather go back to the days of Carl Lewis?
I didn’t like Carl Lewis either. I thought he was also a showboat, but what really bothered me about him was that he didn’t really seem to try to realize his full potential. I particularly remember the 1988 games when he won the long jump with one jump and called it a day. I think it’s fitting that he never set the world record despite being able to consistently jump farther than anyone else. I was and am a Micheal Johnson fan. His 400 meter record was broken the other night, but I believe he would have put it even lower if he’d ever been challenged.
