FAST-TALKING BREAUX: Breaux Greer is quick with a quip. He also happens to be superb with a javelin in his hand.
Greer will take aim at a record eighth consecutive national championship in his event Thursday -- and, if he's to be believed, he might be taking aim at a fellow athlete somewhere in the stadium.
Asked Wednesday what distance might be needed to win, Greer -- who set the American record of 297 feet, 7 inches this year -- smirked and replied: "I don't know. But I've always had a goal to stab somebody at the other end. I don't think I can really walk away from the sport until I do that."
Ha, ha.
There were plenty more wisecracks and outlandish statements from the 30-year-old between gum chewing and sips from a coffee cup: Greer said he could throw a baseball 98 mph as a high school pitcher, put his surgery count at 11, and said a cheetah's ligament was used to repair his left knee during an operation last year.
