REAL TIME BEIJING SCHEDULE

[TrinInfinite]

You have the order wrong, but I see the 2 Trinis qualifying for the final.

seeing asafa run, he wont be beating richard, richard look alot more deadlier, bolt on the other hand have that first spot in the semis, burns coming 2nd

[boss]

You really dont know Tracks do you?

Thank God for Ato, Aviator and Flash here (and 1 0r 2 ohers)...otherwise the depth of fandom would seen as exceptionally shallow here.

Why do you have to make a comment like that? I thought it was a very fair question, and I still find it strange that they would issue a start list for the semi-finals and then change it afterwards, rather than just issue it correctly first time. But I guess my depth of fandom is exceptionally shallow.

And what the hell is "tracks?"

LoL

You are in the 1 or 2 others.

The startlist was NEVER issued. It was not on the IOC site and the IAAF site. The IAAF rules are clear and it was posted by several people on line.

Where was the outrage when 3 nat'ls were in one SF. That is UNPRECEDENTED and informed fans of "tracks" know this. Tracks is slang for the track portion of Track and Field.

Watch!

The man just run 9.82s in 0 wind 2 weeks ago, so unless he injured or RT is ready to PB, he aint beating AP.

RT looking like a good prospect for Bronze though.

Well I learn two things today then 

I still want to know where FF got that first startlist for the semi final then, if it wasn't from the IOC or IAAF?

[100% Barataria]

I saw it as well on the Bahamian link, but then it was changed....

Trackshark, the yankee site had it bandied about and rumour that NBC had it too.

As I said, they separate Nat's as much as possible till the final! I mean, think about it, it would be prejudicial otherwise.

[FF]

NBC had it almost immediately...

They made the change about 20 mins later...

Hard Luck, Cleo!!!

[boss]

Well, the day has arrived! I am no way saying that anyone should have the "get to the final and see what happens" attitude, but I want to say how proud I am of Burns and Thompson regardless of how they do today. Burns, for overcoming recent indifferent form (his PB in 2007 was 10.15  ) and Thompson for achieving so much so early in his career. While I spare a thought for Darrel and his bad luck with injuries, my thoughts today are with Marc and Richard, and I wish them all the best.

[Lionpaw]

You have the order wrong, but I see the 2 Trinis qualifying for the final.

seeing asafa run, he wont be beating richard, richard look alot more deadlier, bolt on the other hand have that first spot in the semis, burns coming 2nd

What a silly statement u made here. U saw Asafa n the quarter final and started making assessments \. Chill out Boss. This olympics is Usain vs. Asafa. Unnuh can battle for the bronze medal but only something out of the ordinary would prevent our one-two.

Put all fun and jokes aside. Seriosly, if Asafa puts his all in it, you think Thompson can beat him? Did you see how early Asafa shut down just now in the semi. Thompson can just hope that 'Safa panics like he did last year in the World Champs final.
