I remember him from his Maryland days('94-'98). He averaged 12.4 pts. his senior year there. His game has blossomed since and I agree with KG that he might well get into some scraps with the brothers.

Benjamin is white and British. Tyler is considered black though his mother is white.

And if he didn't get a double how about him in the 200 and Rock or Benjamin in the 400? That would open even more eyes. If Wariner were to continue his domination in the 400(as I hope he does) and then add the 200 as his own people would say that he is just a once in a lifetime freak sprinting...

Great Britain did quite well I thought in the 4 x 400 running a respectable 2:58.82 and getting fourth. In addition to Benjamin they had two other whites Martyn Rooney and Robert Tobin. Tobin is only 21 and earlier this summer ran a PB of 45.01. Rooney is just 18! With Poland getting fifth...

I used to follow triathlon and honestly can't even remember seeing a black man or woman participating much less being on the elite level. Excepting maybe a few Brazilians that some might have classified as black but to my eye weren't. Lance Armstrong was an emerging triathlete when he made the...

GLS, what was the make-up of the Canadian squad?

Not that anyone that reads the sports pages of the Kansas City Star would know anything about Wariner and Rock's success at the Worlds. The only article about the WC's in Saturday's paper concerned the dropping of the baton in the 4 x 100 and that was only in there because Maurice Greene is...

"You're saying that back in the 80's when blacks were still being shunned from football,..." If you are referring to the 1880's I'm with you, otherwise...what the hell?

And faster necessarily means better?

This is going way back but it was important to me because it made the scales fall from my eyes. Anyone remember Chas Fox from Furman? He was drafted by the Chiefs in '86 and was having a great pre-season returning kicks and at wide receiver. Of course, when the season opener rolled around he...

Keep in mind JD that many of the Euros you're talking about are their respective countries' national champions. They have in fact enjoyed quite a bit of success. I dare say that many of these fellows have decided to compete in the 100 meters and be recognized as at least a national class...

Kluft is amazingly talented and hands down the best female athlete on the planet. If there is anyone that could swallow that fact like a man it is hepthalon runner-up Eunice Barber! She's a scary one.

The "dozens of physiological reasons" that make cornerback a purely black position don't apply to wide receiver? Cornerback is both the blackest and most poorly played position in the NFL. If the athletic divide 'twixt blacks and whites is so vast, what is the explanation for the success of...

Everyone has said pretty much what I would say. Became a fan of his when he came here to KC. Man, was it tough living through the coaches fixation on Grbac. Gannon's toughness stood in stark contrast to Grbac's inability to remain upright if a defensive lineman got within a yard and a half of...

To say radical islamicism is a political movement is a redundancy. Islam is a theocracy. Muslims aren't comfortable yet with notion of the nation-state. That aside, Islam has been at war against "infidels" since its inception and is its raison d'tre. I doubt that Bin-laden pulled the date...

I'm glad of course that Pax is going to air some WC action but it is a far cry from the inuagural Worlds when NBC covered it wall to wall in '83. They also had extensive coverage of Rome '87. For as much Dick Enberg as that meant listening to the coverage was really good. I wish there were...

Something called the Court of Arbitration for Sports has upheld the USTAF's appeal regarding the 4x400 at the Sydney Olympics. Meaning Michael Johnson and the other cheaters get to keep their medals though it did recommend that Jerome Young be stripped of his. The ruling was strictly a...

Galen Rupp intrigues me. I believe he now holds the American junior records for the 3000, 5000 and 10,000.

RALEIGH, North Carolina (Reuters) - Michael Johnson could lose the last of his five Olympic gold medals five years after the Sydney Games when a court in Switzerland rules on a doping scandal on Thursday. The Lausanne-based Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) will announce at 0800 GMT...

David ran 50.90 for third in the final. The Saudi also ran 50.90 in second. The runner from the Sudan won in 50.78. A great result for a world competition that should really give him confidence for his senior year.

The Klechster ran 50.96 in his semi heat to regain the world youth seasonal best. Final is tomorrow.
