Observer interesting theory about football v track but after seeing guys like Jeff Demps and Trindon Holiday choose football over track, well lets just say I think most young fast guys in american will choose big money sports like football over track. I may be wrong though.

Observer applying a heavy weights programme to a junior will stunt their growth and I dont care what the researchers say, I have seen it happen before. I was thought that a junior must only do very light weights work as a heavy weights programme may damage their growth plates, cause severe...

WR it happens all the time in track, coaches destroy talented junior athletes by starting heavy weights work way too early. Any coach who has any idea about track knows that adding a heavy weights programme to developing juniors will stunt their growth. That 9.86 is as good as gone...

Here is how I see it. Most junior sprinters have a big jump (about .2) the year they start hitting the weights room real hard as seniors, in their case they are probably at 10.3-10.4 so they only get down to 10.1-10.2 and improve downwards from there. In CL's case he was a 10.04-9.97 guy...

WL you will be proved right! That run in Paris was worth a 9.9low in better conditions. So what will be my prize when CL runs 9.81 in world championships final.

WL the post were I spoke about when I joined the forum was not in response to your call for calm, it was a response to a post by jay01980.

WL sure was and it was not really necessary. To the forum and Alln2 I apologize for my nasty outbursts.

Yeah, now that I think about it it would be a shame, I think he might also be worried about getting injuried at the American trials and losing it all. I was assuming you were being kept busy in a certain room by your girlfriend if you know what I mean, wink wink bump bump :-).

Your a very lucky man WL. On different note it seems Tyson Gay will not be competing at the 200 m at worlds, which is good news for CL.

So what if this is not a pro Jamaican forum I can still post if I want to. I have been reading here for more than a year, registered a account since November of last year, if you think I do all these things because I want to troll here then I can see why you would call me stupid.

For the record Ben is not paranoid because he thinks it takes drugs to get to the top, he is paranoid because 33 years after the seoul final he still tells anyone who is willing to listen than Carl Lewis spiked his water.

Waterbed I have NO problems with your post and will gladly post a reply. Over the last couple of years the Americans have had 3 junior sprinters who would absolutely kill our junior sprinters, all 3 are now playing football while our top junior sprinters have graduated to the senior ranks...

Thanks for bringing the temperature down trackster, got a bit out of hand there, I hope you guys dont take those race comments too seriously. Drugs in the sport is real and I do expect people to be suspicious but we must be able to talk about it like adults and not accuse an entire nation of...

As I said earlier he has improved in every area of race, including his starts. While 2 kilos over a period of year is not that much muscle, it certainly will help. Another 5-7 over the rest of his career would be about where he should aim. WL your slacking off, why no thread on Ivet...

Yeah I mean how could they do that, that black should be in the fields picking cotton. Its all coming back to me now Thanou, Kendris and Block were all clean and got set up by the same liberal media that denomize the great institution called slavery.

Ask his new coach or training partner not me. http://www.universalsports.com/news-blogs/blogs/blog=blockheadblog/postid=536465.html#tyson+gay+steve+mullings+fast+friends+focused+being+best Tyson Gay's own words, oh I forgot he is faster than CL too, so he must be a no good dope to the...

Alln2 thats right we neggas are so inferior mentally and physically we got to cheat just to compete with the great white race how could I be so blind.

Alln2 so if I were to find a white french sprinter that doped would the same theory apply, no! because he his own man. Alln2 are you really saying that every black athlete that has ever run faster that CL is a doper.

What kind of messed up thinking is that, Ben Johnson doped so all Jamaicans that follow him are dopers. Ben also said that inorder to get to the top tier you have to dope and right now CL is at or near the top tier so if you are going to quote him and endorse his theories you have to...

Thank you very much sir, sprinting is a national past time in Jamaica and in a fringe sport like track countries with small populations can dominate if they are dedicate to it. Please read. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/olympic_games/world_olympic_dreams/9497706.stm

But albino that was what some of the post were insinuating, so I wanted to get that out of the way pretty quickly and establish Jamaica's sprinting heritage. Btw did you read the article, when your finished reading I have another article I would like you to read that chronicles the...

Interfstinly moments after I posted I saw this article it is a most read. http://trackalerts.com/news/lead-stories/4712-bailey-praises-jamaican-sprinters.html

First of all its simply not true that Jamaica does do not have a history in sprinting. Donovan Bailey was an olympic gold medallist and world record holder at 9.84, he was born in Jamaica and left as a teenager. Donald Quarrie is a global gold medalist and was running 10.05 when the world...

Yep thats what I was hearing too, he probably would have gone 9.9low in better conditions.

I think Blake is in 9.8 shape right now, so the fact that he was able to get so close proves that CL is in super shape. Btw I'm hearing that this race was run in sub-optimal conditions.
