Twenty-seven years after his improbable feat, Michael Carter is starting to believe his place in history might never be duplicated. Carter is the only man to capture an Olympic medal and follow it with a Super Bowl ring inside a 12-month span. He pulled the rare double in the 1984 Los Angeles Games and then with the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XIX. A silver medalist in the shot put, Carter is in London coaching his daughter Michelle, who will compete in the same event in these Games.

Nice. Also Renaldo Nehemiah's feat will never be duplicated, either. He three-peated ABC Sports The Superstars (1981, 1982, 1983), then followed it up with a Super Bowl victory on the same '84 9er squad. (He won his record-fourth Superstars in1986.)
