      Looks like he'll have to wait another four years...

        OMG - he actually had the gall to enter??!! :shock:
        If someone actually did 'sponsor' him, now he can say that USATF made a clerical error and denied him his dream!!!

          I realize it might be odd to be on this guy's side even hypothetically, but -- if those times were real -- then it seems he should have entered, at least in the 800. After all, the OT "B" is 1:48.30. If I knew an athlete who met the OT "B" standard, I would certainly encourage that person to submit an entry. As for the 1500, the OT "B" is 3:43.00, so I would not quite see the point of submitting an entry with a 3:44.

          All that stated, the ".00" for each suggests something not real about these times...

          I hope that later he doesn't post to his site that he was "entered" in the 2012 OT. That would be like me writing in my name on the Fall election ballot and then putting on my resume that I ran for President.
