world records that are questionable............

[williamwindhamjr]

The womens 100 meters,the womens 200 meters, the womens 400,and 800.Those are the main ones that bother me because for track athletes who work hard,like Allyson Felix,they deserve a shot,at real records.

Don't stop at 800! How about the 1,500 and 3,000?

[williamwindhamjr]

yes the 800 and 1500 as well.

Is Felix moving up?? :lol:

....throw in all of the W throwing events as well.

What are you suggesting about Barbora Spotakova?

[Rineanna]

What are you suggesting about Barbora Spotakova?

Exactly.

I'm hoping Miankova, Heidler, Hrasnova or Moreno can wipe out that Russian witch's 'record' within the next couple of years.

[Matt]

You know what - I had not been specifically thinking about her, but what makes you think that she in particular is any more guaranteed as a clean athlete than any other? Don't be naive. Just because you ahppen to like an athlete or if an athlete has a nice personality, it does not make them automatically clean.

She will certainly be the first female WR thrower of the modern day era that is clean. I hope she is.

a. Short of hitting her with their hammers, how are those women going to break the javelin record?
b. I can't believe this thread has much of a life. You are violating board policy by accusing all these record-holders of being dirty.

You forgot to say that Spotakova's from the Czech Republic ...

I think Rineanna was agreeing with Powell's point that Spotakova is clean, but then made a separate point about wanting the HT record to be broken. I don't think she was calling Spotakova a 'Russian witch'.

Oh . . . that makes more sense.

If Rineanna can magically tell who IS or ISN'T clean without any scientific proof, doesn't that make him/her more likely to be the witch?????

Just sayin...

As I said above, I think Rineanna was referring to the world record holder in the hammer - Tatyana Lysenko - who has failed a drugs test and is currently serving a ban. Is that sufficient scientific proof?

You really think a Belorussian is clean? After Tiskan and the other one go down in Beijing? Hrasnova has previously served a 2 year ban. Think she's learned the error of her ways? They usually do, right? :roll:
