Excellent point. I thought about him as he had unprecedented range . . . the only man I know who ranked #1 from the 800 to the 10,000. But he never approached,...

Part of the answer is that every NFL game is between two teams, not 22 individuals. Plus each player has their number prominently displayed on their uniform....

That's a good question, but Kipyegon seems to be more of a 1500/5,000 runner than an 800/1500 runner. For example, on the men's side, El G's 3:43 mile...

This sure ranks up there, although I agree with gh & Awsi Dooger ... I would put some of the OG Trials equal to or above it.

Well said!...

Good point. If name recognition and social media presence is part of the definition, then yes, Lyles is a T&F superstar.

If one's place...

On the women's side, Kipyegon is the overwhelming favorite, and I would probably rank her mile a tad bit above above Tsegay's 5k.

[bobguild76]

Good question. Last impressions mean a lot, and a "walk off" WR beats a 2nd place, especially at the DL Final. Crouser's 2nd place is matched...

Endurance records certainly have more room for improvement precisely because they are longer. But I am still blown away by Paula Radcliffe's 2:15:25,...

[bobguild76]

This is true. I think a lot depends on how one measures the last performance of the year for both. They both had amazing seasons, and Kovacs is a worthy...

SJ is so dominant in the 200 . . . the best 200 season in history, even better than FloJo's 1988....

[bobguild76]

Well, Kovacs beats Crouser by 2cm. Great marks for both. I still think RC narrowly edges Mondo for AOY, but both have a case to make....

[bobguild76]

Men's SP is quite the battle! 2 Rounds to go.

[bobguild76]

Amazing 800 race!...

[bobguild76]

And then there is this dude who throws the 16 pound shot....

[bobguild76]

Yes. That was very frustrating!...

[bobguild76]

I was working all day, so I just watched the recording of the first day. It was a worthy DL Final, far better than what could have been for an end-of-the-season...

[bobguild76]

"Undisapprove". Awesome! I love that word and shall find a way to use it with my kids. :-)...

[bobguild76]

Got it. My bad....

Huh? Moses only had two opportunities, and was 2 for 2 gold medals. One can only be measured by the opportunities one has.

In the meantime,...
