Fucking shit handoffs.  Can we not practice that shit?

Apparently, no.  No, we do not ever practice handoffs at fucking all for our relays.  That's fucking embarrassing - just spend a few hours on it in the weeks beforehand and we'd have gold.  But no, we're just going to count on pure speed in an event where fumbling around for 3-4 seconds over the race fucks you.

No, the tape some of the runners are wearing when they walk out onto the track.  Half of them drop it there at the locker room exit.

Thought he was asking about the yellow tape on track, which the US was past on their hand-off. Hence, DQ... sigh.

GB lost that with two horrendous handoffs.  That'll eat you up inside.

And US men follow them. Crap... That was some really bad handoffs

Ato on point: "That was a disaster."

It made my eyes bleed.  I’m half surprised the Chinese didn’t win just to really rub salt in the wounds.

Not saying you’re wrong but Where are you getting this from?

 

I don’t think that’s true at all.

although at this point spending a few hours in the shrink’s office might be the best use of time.

Kenny should've ran anchor. You can't switch up two legs for the final. That's asking for disaster. Still probably would've left too early but who knows. Maybe he would've settled down before the stick got to him.

U.S. needs to just get about four of its strongest sprinters, get them to agree to not run in any of the individual sprints, pay them a princely sum for four years, sequester them, and have them train just for this event.  With just a little bit of preparation we'd win every time.

Naw - they rack up all their golds in table tennis (4), badminton (2), diving (7) and shooting (5) - you know, where true athletic ability shines ...

Just venting - but if they are practicing, it would seem they are doing it wrong.

Was waiting for this. It’s usually the default when this happens but never going to happen.

never going to get 4 guys in an individual sport to agree to become a “team” for one event… at least not 4 guys that are fast enough to come close to winning.

Damn, that girl pulled a Sydney. 

Unless Sydney decided to run without hurdles. That would be an event.

Anna. Wtf

You hot as hell. But that was no bueno girl 

No kidding. Total brain cramp. Almost like a swimming relay person jumping into the pool after swimming with the race still going on. Situational awareness

#1080

To be clear - she stopped short of the line after an huge throw. While staring at it she deiced to do a bunny hop which went over the line.

It is time to blow up the system. This continues to be completely unacceptable. It is clear that EVERYONE at @usatf is more concerned with relationships than winning. No athlete should step on the track and run another relay until this program is changed from top to bottom. https://t.co/Re6THj8QTm

We only get change if you sing the national anthem again, Carl!

#1087

Just tossing this out. Say whatever you want about Lewis but he knew how to win in relays. World record here

 

#1088

well at least they didn't disappoint us actually win the thing.  fucking idiots, the lot of them.

OJ on the call,  do you still get to put tape down like Lewis is doing in the video?

Wtf did Valby just do?

She started way outside on the back, so she should have been on the lower path...the other runner that was right in front of her is the one who screwed up by taking the outside path.

#1092

Were there no prelims for the womens 10K? That is a huge number of runners.  Otherwise they just decided that the finals should have 25 or so.

#1094

What just happened there. The lead group comes out of the turn and they have a stretcher and stuff picking someone up in lane 3

#1095

Just catching up.  We need some corches on the field for our men's 4x100

#1097

If I am the Italian coach I would consider a protest. That was a marginal block. I don't think it changes the result but the winner moved way outside lane 1 there

#1099

Whats the back story on the 3 ex Cubans that now jump for Spain or Portuagal. Didn't think Cuba allowed athletes to leave.
