LOL .. <br /><br />Lots of problems with ranking the women .. Many events don't have a lot of history … Makes it tough to rank with not a lot of history … Combine that with the boycotts during the 70's and 80's … And with all the known countries to have had systematic doping - and that doesn't count those suspected … And coming up with a women's list gets real hard real fast … Even with your list you throw out Marlies Gohr - and she wasn't even the best sprinter on her own team !! <br /><br />Without trying to filter, here is what I would throw out there as a Top Ten - given that you've already opened Pandora's Box with Gohr:<br /><br /> 1. Jackie Joyner Kersee<br /> 2. Marita Koch<br /> 3. Jarmila Kratochvilova<br /> 4. Heike Drechsler<br /> 5. Irena Szewinska<br /> 6. Maree Jose Parec<br /> 7. Stefka Kostadinova<br /> 8. Yordanka Donkova<br /> 9. Evelyn Ashford<br /> 10. Tatyana Kazankina <br /> <br /> I'm still thinking about a non PED list however ..Conway Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133670136098939453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181733805244715468.post-35890972337722233202010-12-01T19:01:39.400-08:002010-12-01T19:01:39.400-08:00Interesting.
