'09 London GP m4x1

Seriously, who's surprised regarding the US lineup? Did you really expect them to run the A-team out there to get spanked by Jamaica?

All I know is they better at least get the stick around the track in Berlin or Logan will have some serious 'splainen to do regarding "change".

[rasb]

DQ ! Anybody see where it might have been?

[jamaicantrackfan]

I need to see the video tape

[Marlow]

Wow, the US relay is definitely a throw together team! :lol: :lol:

Yeah, so much for my assertion on another thread that with so much on the line USATF wouldn't dare do anything but get an ace team fielded and running together competitively well in advance of the Worlds. Well, there's always that huge meet in Cottbus.

Told you.
This is beyond ridiculous. NOTHING has changed.
No Tyson. No Rodgers. No Padgett. No Patton. SMH.

WTF? Here was a GREAT chance to run under pressure.

Logie, you got some splainin' to do. And do NOT tell me that the logistics of getting them all there was too hard. That was USATF's job - to get them together. :twisted:

[rasb]

I wonder if it was for running 3 humans, and an alien on anchor leg ?
Is that legal ?

I stated earlier in this thread that Mike was back in Texas already, surprised you didn't know that TS. I really didn't expect Tyson to run a relay after not having trained in a couple weeks, it would be hard to do hand-offs without any practice. Also someone said Doc was in Spain I believe? Can someone tell me if Stockholm is the other meet with the relay running? I could look it up.. But I'm a little lazy.

when they were announcing, the announcer was questioning the handoff between Mario and Usain...seems it was slightly out of the zone...

From memory, exchange from 1 to 2 looked "long"!

early take off perhaps. Blake will need to get it sorted out.
