In the 1936 Berlin Summer Olympics, American Mack Robinson ran the 200 meter sprint faster than anyone had ever run in track and field history. Unfortunately, he was on the same track as Jesse Owens. Robinson's otherworldly time was the best ever run....except for teammate Owens. Robinson proudly settled for a silver medal. Owens took the gold. It seems as though Dallas could possibly run through the NFL this year and finish with a 14-3 or 13-4 record and STILL only get a "silver". They say in sports timing is everything.
Interesting note...Mack Robinson was Jackie Robinson's older brother.
