Corey's Message "Iron Sharpens Iron" is spreading to the Olympics

[Random_John]

I know that Jeff Cameron and @iraschoffel like to laugh at the amazing colloquialisms, majestically given, by one @CoreyClark

Well, laugh no more! Iron Sharpens Iron has made the big stage of world sporting athletics. During a broadcast of a World Record run of the women's 400m hurdles, the new World Record Holder, Sydney McLaughlin, is quoted as saying, "Iron sharpens Iron." At the 3:21 mark Iron Sharpens Iron

While, Ira may be a 5-star journalist and Jeff a local radio legend, have either of them ever been quoted by an Olympic world record holder? Personally, I feel that warrants a raise for Corey.

And that is a shame. The quote is something that has so much relevance and applicability to men in all walks of life. Being around others who are all striving for the same goal is one of the best ways to improve oneself. Whether in athletic fields, becoming a better man or better in any endeavor the proverb holds true.
