Amy Acuff and Other Track news

   In high School I was a distance runner and hurdler, track is something I know all about. I'm sorry to say Amy is retiring for those of you that don't know she had a huge impact on bringing fans to the track for the last 15 years. She was in four olympics and won many titles and medals. I say this for all fans you will be missed.
   I'd like to congradulate the silver medal winner of this last olympics in the 200 meter race. Both people in front of him were disqualified for running outside of their lanes so he went from fourth up to second. He recently desided to give his medal to the original man in second place, in his words, "if your ten meters behind a man, whats it matter if he steps out of his lane without intervering, he beat you." He gets my sportsmanship of week award. Bravo Shawn Crawford.
