Tuka took silver in the 800, Gemili was once again a snake bitten 4th in the 200 final. You have to wonder if he could have had more in his legs if he just concentrated on the 200, as I thought Guliyev wasn't in medal form but he did finish 5th in the 200 final. PS, Black/Mulatto Donovan...

A mixed bag here but Alberto Salazar was banned for 4 years for his doping of his athletes. It looks like everybody's favorite "plastic Brit" Mobot probably will skate from this stink as USADA were convinced that Salazar doped his athletes but nobody knew who he did it to (obviously Mobot would...

Warholm for the gold, the time was "slow" which might be because of the air conditioned stadium as hot air is thinner, it also could be because of the long season. Warholm is one a few double world champions in this event. In the 200 Gemili and Guliyev are in the final. Gemili has clearly...

This game reminded me of the line I went to a football (soccer) match and a riot broke out, instead it was I went to football game and a baseball game broke out. In the modern NFL with all the rules slanted for offense a 12-10 game should never happen unless there's a driving rain storm or...

In theory Tortu could be bumped up to 4th or even 3rd with the history of the competitors who placed ahead of him in the race. Athletics needs to seriously consider jail time for cheating to harness this problem. It would work on richer Western countries but 3rd and 4th world countries it...

She is listed in the start list as of a few hours ago, I expect this to change as any injury that wouldn't be potentially season ending world class runners try to run with. I wish they had a rule where they bumped up the 9th place runner to the finals as the runner would have the same rest...

He must be a scratch because I saw him listed a few a days ago. Word will get out in the French press...

I was expecting a Welfare Queen look, Berry for a thrower is relatively svelte....

Coleman should have been watching the final from his couch as he missed 3 whereabouts tests within a 12 month cycle. His lawyers argued that he missed 3 over 12+ months. Really US track governing body is way too friendly with their athletes and buy the dog ate my homework excuses. The...

Gemili was jobbed to a point, but Tortu to my naked eye seemed to come about 4th or 5th in his heat got the 2nd fastest loser spot with 10.11. It looks like Coleman has to trip or pull a muscle not to win in the final as he is more than a tenth of a second faster than the next fasted time...

You can't get blood out of stone. It's why Brown has been allowed to become the dysfunctional clown that he is, his money buys people off. The minute Brown is bankrupt his behavior will become only criminal and we will hear jail or prison time for his criminal acts.

Yes I watched some of the heats and no non Black looks like a lock to make the final. Only Gemili looked decent in his heat but he did finish third and generally guys that are runners up don't make the final unless they finished second to a heavy favorite. Tortu finished 3rd himself but was...

True story but I was hit while cycling in mid-town Toronto about 25 years ago and I asked for an ambulance as a precautionary measure just in case my knee went out on me later in the day. The ambulance came and I was put in a neck brace and my body was immobilized too. It was the same...

The last few IAAF World Championships, Youtube has had posted sessions a few hours after the live event ended, these are official videos so they won't be pulled within hours of being put on Youtube. I think the morning sessions are early morning ie 8am on the east coast and the evening sessions...

I nearly started choking on the tea I was drinking when I read the headline, back in the day when the sports card bubble was happening his Patriot card would have been a DWF hot commodity.....

The dumb governments allowed the real estate bubble that has burst and condominium prices have crashed from the their peak in this city. Chinese triads were washing money in local casinos that had no currency controls and the "clean" money was used to buy up real estate and for financing...

I agree or at least keep 3 qb's on the roster and don't dress Hoyer who IMO is on his last legs. Hoyer could be a good player coach in the film room. This could come back to bite the Colts in the butt down the line.

The first week where Jackson looked MVP like everybody he connected with looked like Saturday morning touch football open, the safeties were never to be seen and the cornerbacks looked like 40 year old guys covering 20 year olds.

Yes, guys are micro dosing that's why when Ryan Braun failed his test he really didn't look any different than a clean guy. Gone are the days of guys looking like Popeye or He-man. I too miss small ball which is only now played in the National League because of the pitcher. I can't see MLB...

He's from a dead industrial town that is majority Black that is probably full of zombie drug addicts. Productive Whites have largely left these towns so for him to have a Black accent is probably normal. I had a relative that went to an inner city high school and Whites were picked on but I...

He looked like s%$t against Wallin, once the cut happened he couldn't see from that side and he had to fight a fight he really isn't capable of doing at a world class level. He looked like how he looked when he fought the flabby McDermott in his prospect days. Also he might have gotten a...

Historically coaches are tied to their quarterbacks if Newton lays an eggs for the rest of the season I fully expect Rivera to get pink slipped. Depending on where the Panthers fall in the draft and Newton's contract situation he may get another season as a starter in Carolina, the divorce from...

Guys Out Sports is probably sitting on an exclusive story off of this attire, Newton looks like a combination of Aunt Jemima and a hipster. https://twitter.com/thecheckdown/status/1172277034816552965/video/1

The one Achilles Heal of the US will always be their big men and without a dominant low post player the team can always be abused . Rudy Gobert who isn't a real offensive presence abused the US in the low post in the minor upset in the quarterfinals. Even with Drama Queen James, this would...

Magomedrasul Majidov has his pro debut today, he will be 33 in roughly two weeks so he needs to be moved fast, but he is former 3 time world amateur champion and an Olympic bronze medalist so the talent is there and he is a natural heavyweight so size won't be an issue. His pro career will be...
