It's (always been) clear to me that accusing, insinuating or inferring that an athlete's performance(s) may be linked to drug use is not allowed on this forum. If you think about the high profile of the magazine as it relates to our sport and the potential for athletes, fans, coaches, family members, therapists, administrators etc to read this forum then you maybe able to understand some of the reasons for the prohibition.
This past weekend two of the fastest sprint performances in world history were witnessed in Shanghai and unfortunately we're not able to discuss them because the threads have been locked. It's not the first time that the discussion of great performances went the wrong direction causing threads to be locked, but hopefully the trend can slowed, if not reversed.
Smoke started a thread charging trackfans "to do better" and somehow even that plea to support our own interest goes awry.
Lets try to discuss the performances without the unsubstantiated innuendos that cause threads to be locked and posters to get banned.
To my question...
Are the performances by Tyson Gay and Carmelita Jeter the first time that both a male and female athlete has had performances of this magnitude in the same one off meet?
