Possibly bored on the Thursday night before he starts his 18th NBA season, Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki pondered something that inspired him to post on his Twitter feed: Is he, at 37, faster than Peyton Manning, who is 39?
Dirk Nowitzki ponders if he could beat Peyton Manning in a 40-yard dash
Well, who wins?


Had this debate the other day in the locker room: Who wins a 40 yard dash between me and Peyton Manning???
— Dirk Nowitzki (@swish41) October 23, 2015 Honestly, neither may be able to beat the fastest sumo wrestlers around. But it sure would be a race worth recording for Internet video posting purposes.
Update: Their teammates Chandler Parsons and Von Miller are doing their best to make this happen!
Yo @Millerlite40 make this happen! https://t.co/m0tHNSoweH
— Chandler Parsons (@ChandlerParsons) October 23, 2015 That would be epic! Over/under 5.7? I got Peyton by 1.5yds lol https://t.co/2fc227hDvQ
