Easily The Funniest Headline In History

By Wyatt Earp | July 9, 2010

Are you ready? Here it is:

TIRED GAY SUCCUMBS TO DIX IN 200 METERS

Olympic bronze medalist Walter Dix edged out Tyson Gay in the former world champion’s hotly-anticipated return to the 200 meters at the Prefontaine Classic Diamond League meeting on Saturday.

Dix, who won the 100 meters and placed second at the U.S. nationals last weekend, said his race experience had helped, “but I’m a little beat up, too.”

“I was a little sloppy out of the blocks, but I was able to hold on,” he added. “Tyson gave me great competition.”

What can I possibly add to this? The funny just writes itself, kids.

    GroovyVic – Sorry about that.

    John D – I know. Nothing can top that headline.

    Robert B. – Well played.

    Sully – Better than winning by a foot, I guess.

    Captain – Some editor is collecting unemployment this morning.

    Mike47 – If I told you then every blog would be able to post it!

    Raptor – I spend A LOT of time online looking for stuff to entertain you good people.

    Wes S. – Well, maybe not Paris and Perez Hilton . . .

    Nice to know newspaper folks have a sense of humor.

    “It wasn’t bad, but I was a little fatigued toward the end,” Gay said. “I tried to stay relaxed and bring it home, but it wasn’t enough.”

    Too much Dix will do that to you, I guess…
