Sometimes I wonder if it wouldn't be better for Boling to train for the 400m as he did in high school. In high school he was unbeatable in the 100m, even though he trained for the 400m. Fred Kerley and now Michael Norman, have taken their 400m talents and training and moved down to the 100m...

Samuele Ceccarelli's best 100m time is 10.45. He should improve that a lot this year. And maybe he can make the Italian 4x100 relay team. Meanwhile, I wonder what is happening with Filippo Tortu?

Albert Komanski of Poland (never heard of him), ran 20.56 200m at the Polish Championships. 8th fastest time in the world, and No.1 in Europe.

Tiaan Whelpton, 10.25 with 0.0 wind. Why do his races always have 0.0 wind?

Femke Bol shatters the world record in the indoor 400m. Record had been around for 40 years!

I also heard one of the announcers say that Mac McClung 'saved' the dunk contest. I guess that means that it was lackluster except for McClung.

Very good race for Mary Beth. The winner was a man-ish and muscular woman. Not quite Caster Semenya, but kind of in that direction.

Coby Hilton has very good speed....but his start, unfortunately, is really atrocious.

Will Floyd of Seattle and Canada, ran a nation leading time of 46.81 in the 400m this weekend.

Brody also finished 3rd in the boys 300m at Millrose. So he has speed endurance, as well as short, explosive speed. If I can find either video, I will post them.

Atrocious start by Hilton. Reminds me of Christophe Lemaitre, and not in a good way.

Mia Brahe-Pederson, picks up where she left off last year, running a 22.89 in the 200m, which is new National indoor HS record! That puts her ahead of Bianca Knight, Allyson Felix, and Sonya Richards. Incredible! https://www.dyestat.com/gprofile.php?mgroup_id=44531&do=news&news_id=654903

Susanna Kallur, great Swedish hurdler. https://www.worldathletics.org/heritage/news/susanna-kallur-60m-hurdles-world-record-2008

Nicola Jokic and Luka Doncic would definitely be on this list now, and very high up. Meanwhile, Maravich was incredible offensive talent. Maybe the best offensive player on this list. Unfortunately he never played on very good teams. And I'm not sure whether he was, or would have been, a...

Dickie Post of the San Diego Chargers had five 100 yd games in 1969; three in 1968; and 3 in 1967. So 11 x 100 yd games in a 3 year span.

Tentoglou out to a whooping 8.40m (27ft, 6-3/4in) in the Long Jump in Poland!

Here's a video about Bobby Douglass. There are several others on youtube. Not only was he a great runner, but he had a rocket arm. Kind of like Michael Vick. But even with that talent, he wasn't a great QB. Made a lot of mistakes, and threw a lot of interceptions.

Chicago Bears QB Bobby Douglass, ran for over 100 yds twice in 1972, and once in 1973. He was the original running QB. He rushed for a total of 968 yards in 1972 (14 game season).

Kyrie Irving to Dallas. There goes Doncic's scoring title.

Pia Skrzyszowska of Poland ran a World leading time today of 7.78 in women's 60m hurdles.

Coby Hilton did not start this weekend at a meet in Colorado. This was supposed to be his next meet following his WL 6.51 60m race. I hope he's not injured.

Femke Bol set a WR in the 500m today at the New Balance meet in Boston. Keely Hodgkinson set a WR in the 600m about 2 weeks ago. These aren't regularly contested distances, but still a World Record is a World Record!

Here's the video of Su's race. Strongly challenged by Hiroshida of Japan.

Bingtian Su is still at it, at the age of 33. He ran 6.59 60m in Sweden.

Whoops! But still very impressive. Let's remember, he's a 400m hurdler, not a sprinter. So #2 in the world is fantastic.
