Aviator,

Ye non-patriotic, immoral, non-Olympic-champion, son of a jackal - oh ye of little faith.

Who dost thou think thine is?

Prithee, take care in thy words when ye speaketh of the Chosen One, lest ye offendeth our village idiot.

Meanwhile in the world of REALITY....

I'm covering the meet, so I'll let you all know early if he is in fact there.

We can take a public poll , What is the public or even the Caribbean view of the very "Special" superstar ATO . I wonder what the outcome would be . I will leave it up to your imagination .

. Why is it that after all your accomplishment and all that you have achieved , the public opinion of you is as it is. Probably they just jealous of your accomplishment or probably it is something deeper than that your characteristic. I have accomplished no medals or done nothing significant for Trinidad , so it does not bother me what people's opinion of me are. But I guess as you put it you will just use that information to motivate you. What ever happen to your coaching career , I remember you saying that you have a good eye for spotting talent , How come you have not been able to secure any one of these young talents under your wings to train them. I respect you as an athlete but you still have to prove yourself in all the other AREAS . PS. Take some coaching for Shaka.

What is the public opinion of Ato Boldon ? ..in your view of course ...
I have not had much opportunity to take a poll and would be very interested to know what your findings were.
I dont know whether a person's after career can detract from what he has done in his chosen profession ... eg. I dont value diego maradona any less because he is a lousy coach ...so far !

Nor do I try to degrade Michael jordan because he flopped at baseball . whether Ato succeeds in sportscasting or predicting , discovering or training stars will not detract from his exploits on the track. ..not for me anyway.

why dont we get back to Brown ...I am a big Brown fan and would like to know how he is doing .... I going down wid Brung ! I just cant accept that it is over ..not yet . I held on with Hasley when others wrote him off ...Hasley was an injury prone runner you may recall..he solved his problem by running sparingly saving himself for the big one...maybe Brown is trying the same.

With regard to Brown ..I know I am not alone ....on this i will differ with Ato ...but I will never choose to make light of what he has achieved for T&T .....let Clement keep he gold medal ...Ato will keep by highest regard.

After the Munich olimpic when Crawfie pulled up with that hamstring, he did run a lot. He ran and won a a lot of indoors meets. he also did a lot of outdoor. It was pure hunger and determination on HCs part.

LOLOL jusbless boy what you don't know could fill a BIG book.

1. You can't "openly" coach and hold 3 network tv jobs in the USA (NBC, ESPN CBS). Time-wise and ethics wise, it creates some conflicts of interest. Understand, son?

2. If you read more you would know more as to what I do (all over the Caribbean and the rest of the planet where all these people who you say hate me are lol), but ignorance again. FYI, just came back from Australia, some more stuff for you to hate coming soon out of there.

Here's a little education for you.

3. Why would what you think about me vs Hasely or Shaka or anything else bother me? I have to prove myself in other areas to you?

Look up my broadcast reviews of the past 2 years, your ignorance is showing again. Come nah man, back to yuh boy. He on the provisional start list as of right now.

I have written off DB many years ago so I guess I am a DB hater as well. Each year I hoped he proved me wrong but it never happened. As I said in the past, I hope DB could at least stick around to be a great relay runner on the 4x100. I think that is the maximum he can achieve in the future.

As for the comment about DB has the potential to destroy Bolt, that might have been the case many many years ago but I doubt that very much and now definitely that cannot happen...only Bolt can destroy Bolt.

You never know, strange things do happen and DB may surprise his doubters. However, if I have to bet I would say his career is almost at its end. As Nightmare said, a realistic goal for him is to be a relay runner.

Trinity....like yuh starting already?

I agree, I was a little shocked at that 10.34 performance 4th place finish by DB as well. Truth be told, it was his first competitive race in over 18 months or almost 2 years. So 10.34 opening is not the best, but give him a few races. I guarantee he will lower that 10.34 by the national champs or at the national champs.

All the best DB!

heard that his blocks shifted and he did not get a good start .... but that's just from someone in his camp.
According to the source ..he was really pumped up for this and was very disappointed with the race. ... I agree though ...you eh coming back after injury and layoff and running under 10 unless your name is Johnson ! ..and we boy has never been accused of that ...

Shit i just glad he run a race at all ,,, and finish the race with no injuries .. to be honest if he had run 11 flat I'd have been happy.

I heard he was literally jogging. Looked really comfortable and only put in enough to win the race.

He looking really strong nowadays. Still rediscovering his speed. Good luck DB!

Very Comfortable victory for Darrel he needs races like these it can work wonders for his mental. No one is running great times for T&T this season so far senior champs should be a great one. A win may just jump start the once upon a time *PHENOM*
