Dirk Nowitzki and Peyton Manning share many things in common. They’re both champions, future Hall of Famers, franchise-changers, and they both helped revolutionize their respective sports. Heck, they were even both drafted in 1998.
But they also aren’t exactly the fleetest of foot.
Ever the self-deprecator, Nowitzki took to Twitter last night to turn a locker room conversation into a public discourse.
Had this debate the other day in the locker room: Who wins a 40 yard dash between me and Peyton Manning???

Twitter has been responsible for dissemination of information, launching revolutions across the world, and opening a conversation We the People need to have.
