Too fast to catch? Esk keeps 'em honest - Vancouver Sun
It started out a couple years back as a goofy idea for a publicity stunt: the Edmonton Eskimos would bring in a cheetah to race wide receiver Ed Hervey.

Maybe the concept wasn't so ridiculous after all. Over the years, Hervey, 33, has been compared to a cheetah for his speed and a gazelle for his graceful stride. And over the last six seasons, defenders around the Canadian Football League have repeatedly proclaimed him the fastest player in the land...

...Does anyone around here have an African cat the Eskimos could borrow for a few hours to prove a point?...
