[UpAndComing]

When is the Men's 100m final?

 

[Illuminatos]

I think the US needs to recognize in general that

1) These European teams take track seriously
2) These European teams have immigrants / kids of immigrants that are helping out the athletic talent pool
3) As a result, you need to run your best athletes at all the events, lest you get caught slipping

I didn't know there were so many brehs in the Netherlands. I saw a clip of that iShowSpeed kid in the Netherlands on Twitter and there were a bunch of young Black kids running around there.

Track brehs...I've noticed Richardson always starting slow but finishing strong. How can she work on starting faster? In 4 years she'll be 28. Is that still young enough to be considered prime in her track career for women?

Yep. still in their athletic prime, some people can be outliers and still perform just as well into their early 30s. Nowadays it isn't a deal breaker.

 

[Damnshow]

Not even close, she won that gold easily!

 

[keond]

I told my wife when Alfred won in the semifinals, I don’t see how it will be any different in the finals

 

[Primetime]
