I know nothing bout track, but Burns finish real strong in dat race from lane 8 (OK, so Asafa was easing up and might not have noticed him all d way out dere, but even so....

)

Thompson started strong but faded towards the end. Still, nice to see some of our fellas livin up to their hype for a change

Added to all that if yuh was to swing around that headwind, we might have very well had 6 men run sub-10. Some SERIOUS depth this year.

Ahrite track men (and women), I iz a baller (though some might say ah lie

) not a track man, so ah askin de question, realistically, yuh see we coppin at least one medal in de men'x 100m this year? Powell, Bolt, and Gay are obviously favorites, but to my naaive eyes we could challlenge for at least one not so?

If is one man I willbet my money on (once healthy) is Darrel Brown. I am hearing some good things coming from the MVP camp. I know Shaver and Ato will have RT ready and Burns is just ah soldier, but Brung is mih horse fuh de upset.

SUB TEN into a wind too like Richard. Yes that is the real thing. So that makes what, 4 3 sub ten performers now for TNT lol.

The worst thing could have happened to Richard is to be next to Asafa because he ran Asafa's race model, he started well, very consistent now in that department

- but he is still competing well. Rich'$ Last 20m was awful but lawd knows I been there....10.01 at this point in the year with his long 08 season is still good going into Beijing. Tapering will change a lot.

I have never seen Marc look better, ever, but lawd he always is running from 3-4 meters back. You can't run down people from that far back in a championship setting and that is why he makes finals but doesn't factor when he does. He could factor this year in those finals if they fix that start even a little.....Why d hell cant they fix his start after all these years?

...GEEZAN man steups. Is not rocket science....

Anyhow let it not be said I am complaining - I tell these men celebrate every PR you never know when it will be your last - a great day - and things look about as well as I thought if not better....oh and Jamaica's 4x100 need to slapped individually and collectively if they lose in Beijing because they have 2 x 9.7 guys, 1 10.00 and a sub ten guy running for them....we can't match that on paper and neither can the US.

But we know individual times dont matter. They should have beat the USA last year in Osaka and that didn't happen.

Firstly congrats to both Marc AND Richard for doing so well at such a high caliber meeting dey make yuh feel rell proud. But as Ato mention Richard was running the ASAFA race prototype and as a result he faded within d last 20m which normally is d part of d race where he picks up/running at full pace, but what is positive is that he can learn! Then if corrected he WILL do better and its only his SECOND race as a pro wow!!!!!!! On the down side was d women's 4x100m. The first leg was well run, second leg was poor as was the third KB made up ground on 1 girl and jus eased at the end ( i thought 43.46 was the PB not 43.71) anyway dey really need to fix up! duno wat Ayanna and MONIQUE were doing but unfortunately we dont really have anybody else to run their legs unless Sasha Springer-J and Wanda Hudson wlling to do a better job. Hopefully dey will do something to improve their times.

Might have been terrible in this situation, but I rather for it to happen now than in Beijing. At least that gives you the nest 3 weeks to pound it out of him, so there will be no surprises when the lights are on.

Brown is on the start lists for Monaco next Tuesday, hope he runs.

Lemme tell yuh what I'm observing ....these men not invincible the gap is closing...that is encouraging....men starting to believe that they could beat these guys Marc, Richard and Darrel go be there with them...darrel on the downlow I waiting to see what he has in store Marc has been running well and well RT under ATO so I not worried bout him. The man i worried bout is Tyson because even tho Bolt and Asafa think they guaranteed top finishes and they eh fraid the opposition ..tyson is a serious man and he doesnt undersetimate anyone so he'll work and work and work and work....he is a manimal

Willi .....perhaps it was the wrong use of words on my part but I get the impression that them two fellas as talented as they are tend to underestimate the opposition ....especially Bolt. Bolt is a cocky youth no doubt bout that like to cut off and look over because he know he have the goods ......... eventually all that does come back to you if he eh watch himself....Asafa does struggle in the main events because he doesn't deal well with pressure in his mind he is expected to win it just like everyone else expects him to win it and win it easily with class shutting down ...so whenever he runs and he is under pressure to which he isn't accustomed he almost automatically backs off or shuts down...so for him the pressure is in his mind ...when yuh on top the hardest thing to do is maintain it because everyone else wants what you have....Tyson has no such burdens ....there was a time when he used to get licks steady he was more a two hundred man ...he paid his dues and now he there with the best but he is a real humble soul so is no pressure to run like a dog and win it ...to him is about the end and not the means to it....not to say I supporting America surely you know that's not the case but it there right in front of our faces to see ....who want it bad enough ....no guts no glory Willi
