Default Nyquist vs Colon

Tweet from ESPN:

Nyquist ran the final 1/4 mile in 25.7 seconds

Bartolo Colon took nearly 31 seconds to round 4 bases

Not a fair comparison, Nyquist has 4 legs, I hear Colon has only 3.

A pun, but oddly true. I almost bled out; lost and replaced 13 units of blood before they located the bleed. No NSAIDs, no caffeine, no oral anti-histamines and very little alcohol. Fortunately, nicotine makes the blood "sticky", so I can still smoke. Besides, after everything else he took away, he wouldn't dare.
