I haven’t checked yet but I think the long jump may go the same way.

Here is Kerr's gold medal jump of 2.36. Such a smooth jump and it puts him at 48th all time.

Hamish Kerr from New Zealand took the gold in the high jump! A South Korean athlete took the silver and Jan Stefela from Czechia took the bronze.

I hadn’t realized he had run faster than that, or maybe I looked and just forgot. His PB is 10.06 from back in 2023.

The mens 400 has been a mixed bag of results. Out of 6 heats, only 3 white guys made it through to the semis. Dobson qualified although he finished 3rd in his heat and had the slowest qualifying time of 44.85. Edoarto Scotti of Italy qualified with a 44.45 which is a new national record...

On the men’s side, no white or Asian sprinters made it out of the heats in the 100. Larsson and Hansen both ran 10.22. Browning ran 10.16 and Azzopardi ran a pedestrian 10.41. Unfortunately another year of disappointment in the 100m. I suppose it’s worth noting that Puripol Boonson ran a new...

The NFL will never become whiter, only darker. A few small battles may be won, for example the “hey at least let a couple white guys play cornerback”. But that hardly makes up for the fact that quarterback has become majority black. The evidence is there for those that want to see it and it’s...

Worlds start September 13th. Looking forward to seeing Browning and Larsson in the 100. Tortu is entered in the 200 along with Larsson and Toby Harries from Great Britain. Of course the 400 should be good as well with Dobson and Doom. Hoping they both make the finals.

This is the same issue that we see in sprinting and the problem is the numbers. There are only a handful of white running backs in the NFL compared to probably well over 100 black ones. The injury rate might be the same but when we are putting our stock into only 5 or 6 guys, it’s just a...

It makes me wonder what kind of conversations these white running backs have with the coaches behind closed doors. I imagine a white running back who’s ascended to the highest level of football isn’t a pushover who’s going to be told he’s nothing more than a blocking back. If it was me I’d be...

Way too coincidental for 6 candidates to die during a campaign, even though the police are saying no foul play is suspected. Unfortunately it seems the only way out for these European countries now is violence.

The best thing about Wyatt Lee is that he isn’t a 10.7 sprinter who had a one off performance. He’s a consistent 10.3/10.4 sprinter. Here’s his 100m times this year.

Wyatt Lee from Canada is only 17 and has been running 10.3s and 10.4s all year. His pb is 10.34 +0.8 and he also has a windy 10.18. One to keep an eye on for the future. Always nice to see some white sprinters out of Canada...

I wasn't able to read the article without subscribing, but I'm guessing this very recent, like within the week?? Could have an impact on his performance at worlds.

I had to go back and watch Jeff Lacey’s last fight. He fought and up and coming Sullivan Barrera and it was a painful watch. Lacey didn’t belong in there and neurologically couldn’t get his body to do what his mind wanted it to. Teddy Atlas was commentating and basically said what most...
