Yes that was the speculation on IAAF feed I saw on Youtube. That's one less medal threat for Schipper in the 200 if this is true.

I remember Michael Johnson talking about working on a faster turnover whenever he ran the 200. Van Niekerk looked like he was a gear too slow to be a factor in the final in two days. It could be Guliyev battling the Trinidadian and Young with maybe Malakawla in the mix for a medal too.

Yes he went out like a bat out of hell and held on down the stretch. This championships have had quite a few mild upsets, hopefully this keeps up as chalk wins aren't the most thrilling thing to see.

I have never liked this format as wind gauges mostly determine the two non automatic qualifiers, which is straight luck. At least in the old 2 semifinal top 4 format if you finished 4th you knew you advanced.

According to the Urban Dictionary a Swamp Donkey is.....A very ugly, usually fat girl who hangs around in bars and clubs waiting to sexually assault males who are too drunk to defend themselves. It seems fitting, I'm old fashioned myself and would have just called them Welfare Queens, but to...

When guys demand huge purses for these fights it all but says this is a potential retirement fight for potential Loma opponent. Walters did the same thing for about a year and then took the fight when he started looking flat at 130 pounds and the career high purse could evaporate. I hope Loma...

Yes they showed photos of the only athlete to win gold medals in all three sprints. She is in the argument for the greatest all around sprinter, just off that accomplishment alone....

I expect Guliyev and Talbot to make the final and Lemaitre to have a chance because of experience. The others will need the race of their careers to make the final. Guliyev has a legitimate shot to medal as the medals should be wide open. Even Van Niekerk might not be superman with a hard...

Semenya literally loped home to third and robbed Muir of a third place cheque and probable bonuses from sponsors. Even if they sort out this mess X years down the road the moment will be lost when Muir and the women in the 800 from Rio get their medals in the mail and never receive the monetary...

Yes he is in the argument for the greatest heavyweight ever, comparisons with Louis and Marciano are fool hardy as both would be cruiserweights in today's era. Even Ali would have been a big cruiserweight who cut weight or tweener who would be outsized by the modern skilled huge heavyweight...

Your best friend is missing both events at the world championships. Did you curse him like this character from Gilligan's Island.......

It amazes me this man is still breathing. Also this could explain why he was out of the NFL so fast as he is pushing 5 bills, best of luck to Jared......http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/08/02/jared-lorenzen-weighs-500-pounds-i-fight-my-de

As far as I can tell it's August 5th, the second day of competition. Things are sped up in the worlds because there are no other events that television is broadcasting.

Yards from scrimmage, yes. Total rushing yards will be hard if he spits carries and Rivera fears overworking him between the tackles.

2017 World Championship's first round of the 100 meter dash.

I don't know if he is one of the pawns for Al Haymon or he is a long shot/diamond in the rough prospect for Dibella. If he is aligned with the PBC he may have the inside track to Wilder down the road. The winner of tonight's fight would be a good crossroads fight. On the surface it looks...

Doug Moron intends to have a run first offense and will try and run Leonard Fournette into the ground. Rotoworld was their usual blunt self when they stated that the Jaguars will hide Bortles. One interesting thing is a fullback will be important to their offense so Bohanon probably has an...

This shows you how bad the hit and run problem is in California. I suppose this is better cost wise because the whole situation is so FUBAR. Before minimum wage laborers would flee accidents and let everybody else deal with their mess. It's like the government doesn't have the wear with all...

France and England it's been this way for a generation. I would say what is more troubling are countries like Spain, Portugal and worse Turkey(which is on the verge of a possible civil war) where they don't have any population of Black citizens. These athletes aren't anything but professional...

Yes it should be embarrassing for somebody of his income level to not tip. I don't think if Woods orders say 20 bucks worth of food at Denny's he should have to tip more than the average customer but not tipping is telling on his sense of entitlement. Or maybe he was rejected by the waitress...

The kind of Whites associating with Simpson now are either stripper types or criminals. The memorabilia dealer typifies the type of "friend" Simpson has these days. If I had my "friend's" personal affects there is no way I would sell them without giving him or her a heads up on having them...

Usually if there is a crime wave of a crime quick laws are written up to discourage the crime from being committed again and to punish violators of the law, whether this deters potential criminals is up for debate. Simpson got the lengthy term because he confined his victim while using a...

I don't even know if the average cook has the ability to do this at McDonalds anymore as every order is cooked evenly by multiple cooking pads. Back when I was in high school the average cook cooked every order, so then custom job could be done. But unless it's for dietary reasons, come on...

When UB first went to the D1 level they were very white at even "Black" positions, then Turner Gill was hired and he tried to recruit out of state and the roster started resembling the typical B grade run of the mill college program. But UB just needs to keep local guys and they can compete in...

This reminds me of a funny(in a dark sense) incident about 20ish years ago in Toronto where a regular citizen had a similar name to somebody was arrested or released from jail for pedophilia and the innocent man had newspapers television stations and would be vigilantes calling his house. The...
