Two world records in the two biggest meets of the year. The girl who beat her has second best time in history (Not Shamier, I know).
How does she not win? I love Deanna and her joy, but not sure...

On one hand, I find it hilarious. The Wariner thing was clearly excessive, but to me it was because he always seemed to have gas down the final 100, which to the uninformed such as me, seemed to...

Overall great meet. Great performance by the Americans (for the most part) And some dammmmmnit that was close 4th places.

Highlights for me:

Mens' shot put!
Women's 400h
Both short hurdle...

Hold the funeral for a moment.
He just threw: 48.34

My disappointment is that Roberts wasn't in that race, too!

Skeets/Foster reborn!

Norman not making final is a HUGE disappointment. I will fess to that. Personally as well as professionally - I was really looking forward to the 400 final and a honkin' fast time. Been looking...

Who is your third in this scenario?

By the looks of it, and no science, I feel like Coleman might've reallllly had a shot at beating Lyles had he carried on.

For sure, a medal.

Speaking of scheduling - Heptathlon and Deca going on at same time? That seems unusual to me... Yes? No? Am I drunk? (maybe)

Yep. Thank you NBC Gold! This competition was almost worth the $70 bucks in and of itself.

If y'all had been sitting next to me during the race, you'd know that I said, "I think this is setting up perfect for him..."
True story.
What a day of USOFA

I know it's just heats. But- USA'sians far exceeded my expectations.

Also, not seeing live results from this. Or am I being thick? They have flashed a few results when they cutaway.

Belcher misses semis gift - by an eyelash.

Coleman looked goooooooooood.

Not cool. Literally.

Too many negative wind readings. They need to adjust those AC nozzles. :)

I also noted on another sub-thread that I find it odd that there are several NWi's on LJ.

Considering all the techno bells and whistles - multiple NWI's on the result sheet.

Saw the same thing. It's odd. But if you download the heat list, all Americans are listed. Belcher up first in round 1.

Dude, I'm with you on Rai Benjamin. I just have a feeling he's gonna take it.
I'll bet a virtual benjamin on that, too!

Noah Lyles -667 on a site I looked at. (Bet $667 to win $100).

I'm...

Ah. Duh. Thank you for that clarification.

None of our 400 hurdlers on either relay pool?

I feel liike Sydney Mc might be a tad quicker than Allison Felix.
And Rai Benjamin has certainly shown 400 flat chops.

Geez.
Can we just be excited about investment in the coverage of the sport?
Some cameras will end up not being great. Some might!
But IMHO, as much as I love the sport some races are hard to...

Great article. Sadly CC now wears a Scarlet Letter D.

I (for one) hope the kid walks out of Doha with 3 medals around his neck and a smile on his face.
