Scientists Unveil 3G Shoelace
Filed under:
We interrupt your regularly scheduled afternoon to bring you this important science (Science!) update, courtesy of ESPN Sport Science and HT ChuckWood. It has a 15-second Wodka commercial introduction that's worth waiting through. Follow either link for findings such as:
- Denard is like Michael Vick only faster (and with better quarterbacking numbers)
- Denard can get up to 11 mph in four steps
- Denard's top speed is somewhere close to 22 mph
- Denard recreates the G force of a shuttle launch when he cuts.
Denard Robinson is made of dilithium. Science!

Denard
Denard
I am torn. On the one hand, Denard!!! Most awesome M player in the history of ever, and nice to see him get the hype.
On the other hand, Denard is getting an NFL evaluation. These types of measurables are the type of thing that could go into a very positive evaluation, especially if he is being eveluated as an ATH. I really want Denard to come back next year.

Really META but yeah it's
Really META but yeah it's
Really META but yeah it's technically doable but creates problems. There's several things involved:
- The "front page" option that works w/ diaries does not work for these. I would have to bump to a Diary, then do it from there. I can bump a board item to Diaries that has <200 words but I can't edit it or anything without tripping the iron 200-words rule. That means I couldn't FP it from there.
- User tags (which I'd have to post then go back and delete and re-make if I wanted to add). Also there's a problem created by the subcategory "football" on the board gets stories thrown into a deep dark hole.
- Posting time. I'd like the OP to have the rapidity with which he posted preserved, however I waited to let Ace's article sit as the top post for a few hours before posting. To do that i would have to change the posting date (this doesn't happen with FP'ed diaries) or else it would appear under Ace's article.
- Points. You get 100 points for a FP bump but you will lose anything you got for plus/minus. He deserves all the PLUSES for posting. I gave the OP a 200-pt bump as well.
- My images. The easiest way for me to upload images to the server is by publishing in WLive. Obviously I can't do it that way if it's somebody else's post.
- Some people find short things like this annoying. I'd rather they be annoyed with me than with a user who appropriately posted it in on the board.

shuttle launch is a terrible comparison
shuttle launch is a terrible comparison
Astronauts experience 3 g's for minutes, Denard experiences them for a fraction of a second. A better comparison of how that g-force feels would be how anybody feels at the bottom of a rollercoaster, 3-4g's for a very brief instant of time.
He's still one of the only people that can do that though, so I guess astronaut/Space Bitches comparison is valid.

is awesome! We all think he is coming back right? After another off-season and spring ball and the practice time before the season that will only help him more.He will have a chance to be drafted in the first round. He has already out peformed micheal vick in college. He needs to work on his accuracy and gain some weight.

Incredible ankles
Incredible ankles
There was a book by a physicist a few years ago (The Physics of Football) which also noted the tremendous forces at work when runners cut and change directions. Barry Sanders was the example used in the book and he and Denard must have incredibly strong ankle ligaments and be very fit to withstand the sudden stops and shifts. It isn't just a linear 2-3+ G accleration. It is going from +1-2 to 0 and then 2-3 in the opposite direction.

The arc of the dilithium time
The arc of the dilithium time
The arc of the dilithium time bend has an odd correlation to the year 1997. Denard played several series for the national championship team as an all-around. Also there is some speculation that the "tacopants" phenomenon is actually an echo in the space/time continuum, a side effect of bending time.

I'm not really a huge fan of any NFL teams... whenever I'm watching a game I tend to root for the team with the most Wolverines on it. But I have a feeling Denard's team will be my new favorite team.
that is what they should have found out.
