2009 USATF: m400H - Bershawn Jackson 48.03

[croflash]

Dutch obviously is talented, but that was a surprise, especially finishing 2nd. Congrats to him and also Batman and Angelo!!

Do you really think it was a surprise ? Jackson was obviously the favorite, but after that Dutch had a decent shot to finish second and he did. It was only a matter of time when he would improve his PB again.

Carter not taking the DQ well. From his twitter page -

I am done running.....

Yes to me a surprise, of course Dutch again is very talented.

What was his time; was it a trailing leg?

[Moura]

A sweep is again a possibilty for WC. Dutch can pay in Berlin a long season on that time, but I am sure we will see this athlete in a major podium at short term.

I don't see him medaling, but anything is possible.

I have feeling that the gold is going to be between Batman and Taylor. I see Kerron out the loop for some reason.

Looked like Carter DNF'd not DQ'd.

I prefer to focus on Bershawn and his great run. Good job Batman! And when Johnny Dutch (best name category) drew lane 6, I knew he would make the team.

He got DQ'd, and when asked why...

"I have no clue but it dont matter...its a wrap"


It may well have been related to his pulling up due to some type of injury.

WOW!!!

Reading some of his comments, Carter just strikes me as being frustrated at his race today - he makes no mention of any injury in his post-race twitter posts. He may have pulled up when the outcome became obvious(leading to the DQ). The drug stuff, and quitting the hurdles, likely heat of the moment comments.

He must have been DQd for leaving his lane because he stopped running prior to the straight and was out of the race before then.
