Sydney obviously on something

If that conversation comes up anytime Jamaica does a madness, might as well come up when someone breaks her own record 3 times in a year :yeshrug:

Sydney is the GOAT tho. At this point, she might start running flat 400 times in the hurdles :damn:

True, the next American female sprinter to win the gold in either the 100M or 200M is going to be a SUPERSTAR and household name.
Yep and that’s how it’s always been. Idk why people are acting brand new. Like ShaCarri or not, if she ran 400 hurdles she wouldn’t get the same play.

Can you even name a man outside of Rai ran the 400 hurdles in the past decade?
I also don’t see anyone questioning why he isn’t the face of T&F over Brommel, Coleman or Kerley who are nowhere near the WR and haven’t even broke the American record

She can easily be pushed

dan o'brien and dave johnson were getting commercials as decathlon athlete sback in the day



new balance if they were smart would drop a kawhi/sydney commercial since everyone thinks they are bland

That was actually a great ad campaign. Put them on the map.
