that was ridiculousssss!

Thread title needs to be updated with SAF winning and Gay pulling out.


Pause!

 

[brrraptors]

WHAT! gay pulled out?? ah man. was looking forward to that 200m so badly. Chambers too? %+* is going on.

it looks way worse not running the 200 n running the relay imo. but we can only speculate we dont know the real extent of his injury.


Shelly though, got dam! that start got me going WOW. kerron's close out speed was ridiculous but that start was way too good to overcome. if shelly didnthave that start kerron would've got her at the line. good show!

 

[DYNAMICS]

Yes PAWSSSSSE indeed one of the rare times I slipped up.

 

[thetruth03]

son ran 9.71....how can his groin not be right??

im saying...

Son she was airborne at the gun

that was ridiculousssss!
boy was it??

NT, we need to talk about Flo-Jos 10.49:

http://www.youtube.com/v/MkpTsAmv8XQ&hl=en&fs=1&http://www.youtube.com/v/MkpTsAmv8XQ&hl=en&fs=1&http://www.youtube.com/v/MkpTsAmv8XQ&hl=en&fs=1&http://www.youtube.com/v/MkpTsAmv8XQ&hl=en&fs=1&


why is that time still in the record books?

now don't get me wrong... Flo-Jo was

but that woman was juiced out of her damn mind. she had so many PEDs in her system that she collapsed and died at an early age.

i feel bad for girls like Shelly Ann.. who, to me, should have a WR with how well she just ran. until they erase Flo-Jos 10.49, women's track and fieldwill never be able to advance as a sport.

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

That %!%! don't even look right.

Damn Flo-Jo was bad

 

[DYNAMICS]

Well really Flo-Jo would still be the WR Holder she did 10.61 and 10.62 but those times are more reasonable not no damn 10.49 and 21.34 (200 WR).

[thetruth03]

Flo-Jo's times were so inconsistent you cant even take that her WR's serious..

Honestly, i dont think anybody really does take her times serious..

 

[gunna get it]

I disagree about Flo Jo.

she had the previous WR... but if u believe in Bolt, U should believe in Flo Jo...

Both are once in a lifetime athletes who crush the 1 & 2...

I knew Shelly Ann was ready when she dusted heads I think it was Rome like last month...

Yo if u watch the VS replay, watch how she locks up wit like 20 meters left

she woulda lost if it was 101 meter race

her stride changed, she balled her fists and lost all form

He needs to Re-evaluate what he needs to be doin out there

I was thinking the exact same thing. He's out there with Bolt doing a victory lap after getting his %!# handed to him

It's because Asafa failed the most recent major event before Berlin, Beijing Olympic. He could've won silver at least w/o Gay in it, but came withnothing.

So 3rd place should be very good enough for him.

 

[smedroc]

i've never seen that race before though... *%!$ was scary.

she didnt look physically like she was on *%!$ (a la ben johnson) but she must have been

......Marion Jones aint even get near that time and she was an animal (on roids)

 

[guerrilla warfare]

Y even race against him

Bolt said he can go faster

you really think those times were legit?

before '88 Flo-Jos fastest time was a 10.96. then all of a sudden, she started running sub 10.7s, sub 21.5s.

Usain is believable because that fool ran a 20.13 when he was 16.. and went sub-20 shortly after

what we're seeing from Usain now is simply the fastest human ever born finally maturing into a man at 22 years old.

that's different from Flo-Jo suddenly having ridiculous career times when she was nearly 30 years old.

 

[DYNAMICS]

BTW Usain got 100K for breaking the WR @ the World Championships.
