It's over for tonight but there are still a few days left. That is why they are showing boxing right now.

Think about it guys. Why are the younger whiteathletes able to win more medals decade after decade despiteit being said that they mature slower on average? That really shows how equal whites are to blacks. It it the drugs more than genetics that widen the playing field. Look at the 2008World Youth Champs where Lemaitre won the gold medal. 2 of the top 3 medalists in the 200 where white and I believe3 of the top5 overall. Lemaitre, Guliyev and Herring. Things just don't add up if you think about it.

Then look at what the distance guys do as well. Whites can compete with anyone. The problem is both cheating and not enough participation to get more superstar types. There is no physical reason that whites cannot sprint or run distances. It's all a bunch of b.s.

Just checked, and they've completed the 800 semis. Cax Loxsom (US) blew away every heat with his time. He's a stud, but I hope he left a little in the tank for tomorrow. Robbie Andrews advanced, but he didn't run as hard, so he may have more left. Of course, none of our boys are used to the multiple races, so this always favors the Kenyans. Britain's Niall Brooks was a disappointing casualty of the semis.

It's good to see some talent in the middle distances from the U.S. It's almost suprising when we send any white athletes other than the field events. Most people around the world would probably never guess that this country only has a population of 13% blacks from the way we are represented in these events. Anyways, let's root on these guys. It would take a great race by these kids to win but anything is possible.

I noticed a favorite of this board might mite Laura Roesler was running a leg of the US 4*400. It was nice to see the mens 200 meter dash going against the stereotypes. I agree that very few of these athletes are juiced. The only form of cheating that could be a problem here is athletes from some third world countries could be sending young look 20 somethings to compete. Kenya has been accused of this in the past as quite a few of their juniors have fizzled as seniors after destroying quality fields in the juniors.

Let's also give credit to the women in the 4 x 100 Relay Finals. To take the silver and bronze medals is pretty damn good if you ask me. I would like to see a video of this race. Hopefully someone will upload alot of these races to youtube soon.

Hopefully the link will be working for the final day tommorow. I think it will but you never know. This 110 Mens Hurdles finals looks awesome. Even mastermulti should love it as there are two aussies that made the finals. Good day mates. All of the favorites are alive too. Could we see a european sweep like in the womens 100 hurdles final? I sure hope so.

I watched all the action from today, again, thanks to the CBC-Canada broadcasts I've been watching all week. It's been a lot of fun, and looking forward to the final day tomorrow. I think there will be several events, including the 4x400 relays in which whites will be in medal contention.

Here are a few observations:

1. I see that there's sizable number of whites in the sprints, on both the men's and women's side. Most are from Western Europe, a few Canadians, but I've also seen some good represention from Eastern Europe, including Poland, Hungary, Belarus, and Romania. The girl from Belarus who won the gold in the 400m Hurdles today was incredible. Why does this not translate into the "senior" ranks, that's a curious question. Maybe the track experts can try to tackle this one. I've seen whites beat blacks in several events, as well as some good success by the Japanese against blacks, so, what the heck happens once they turn 20 and beyond? It doesn't make sense.

2. I'm pleasantly surprised to see so many white athletes from Great Britain. I know from watching soccer as well as the senior track ranks that they are trending heavily black, but the junior ranks look very good. Again, can this carry on further?

3. The German track program appears to be in good hands. I think I saw a token black or 2, similar to the men's soccer team from the recent World Cup, but other than that, by and large the German team is nearly all-white, including the sprints. Here's hoping the Germans can continue their success at the next level.

4. As far the US Track team is concerned, we appear to have a "whites need not apply" policy.

This is highly disappointing and clearly a by-product of the racist caste system which is most visible at the NFL and NBA level, and trickles down to other sports like Track & Field. It makes no sense that there was not a single white sprinter from the US. I watched all the sprint events for men/women, (100/200/400/100H/110H/400H), and I did not see a single white American. This is a complete disgrace. I think there was a mixed girl who ran the 4x400 relay in the semis, but I'm not sure.Edited by: foobar75

yep , two Aussies in the 110H and one in the girls high jump. I don't expect any medals (although we got a boys discus bronze)but I think that's a dozen Aussie youth performances now in the world top 8 which ensures (hopefully) some decent funding.

I really wanted a good 4 x 100 from our guys. With a 100m finalist and two semifinalists in the 200 we would have expected another top 8 but we all know how relays can go!Edited by: mastermulti

the U.S. does seem to have attacked the issue of who competes in which discipline fairly LOL. Put people in boxes and it saves lots of effort

blacks - track sprints
whites - swimming
yellows - diving, table tennis

A disappointment in the 800, as some Kenyan (probably 25 years old) took the gold. Second, third, and fourth were occupied by Cas Loxsom, Robbie Andrews, and Niall Brooks (who made the final when another runner was dqed), so the future still looks extremely bright. All three of those guys are excellent. I suspect that one of them would have won, but they aren't used to running that many races on consecutive days (which, by contrast, the Kenyans train for). Loxsom is sort of the forgotten 800m runner, but finishing ahead of Andrews might draw some attention to him. All three runners ran solid times for their ages.

Loxsom and Andrews take the silver and bronze in the final of the 800 meters! Outstanding showing. The future of middle distance in the US is looking bright!

Aleksey Federov jumps 16.68 to win the gold in the triple jump. This guy was the favorite coming in and he backed it up winning by a huge margin. I think we could be looking at one of the next greeat triple jumpers in the world. Congrats to Aleksey.

We took the silver and bronze in the 110 Hurdles. I feel bad for Merdith but the strong negative wind two days in a row clearly had an effect on him. He is by far the lightest of build of these guys. As he gets stronger, he will improve. Jack had a silver at the last world youths and a bronze today. Vukicevic took the silver and I see future olympian in this guys future. He just has the right height and build to make finals in big competitions some day.

A clean sweep by the european women in the high jump. It is clearly evident decade after decade that whites jump higher than anyone in the world. From the juniors to the seniors, it is always three whites standing on the podium. So don't ever believe that whites can't jump. Another lie in the countless attack on whites world wide.

Supergirl (the fabulous Laura Roesler) ran the fastest of all four legs in the 4 by 400, and, according to the TFN message board, won the race for the US. Here are the splits on the legs:
Dixon 54.4, Smith 52.3, Roesler 52.2, George 52.3.

Note that, her time could have been even better, if she ran more than 400 (split times are difficult, depending on where people get the baton), and they eyeballs apparently say she really smoked it.

She just missed out on the finals (the interview was prior).

Here is a nice article about the German Womens 4 x 100 Relay Team winning the silver medal. Notice again the 3 of the 4 sprinters are white yet they are the 2nd fastest Relay Team in the world! Simply amazing talent and again it shows how racism hurts the sport. That would be racism against whites competing!

Click on Silver Relay extra training pays off. Sorry it didn't go directly to that article but I wanted to make sure the photos were there too. When you copy and paste, the photos don't show up. These girls need to be seen. Incredible talent on display here! Second in the world!

How about Claire M. of Ireland winning the silver medal in the 1500 Womens Final. Another fine example or how anyone can run whether it's the sprints or the distance events. She is another beauty from Ireland with so much talent. Think about it. How can little countries like Ireland, Germany, Australia, Poland and England produce so much talent with they have a very small population compared with the big countries of the world! It makes you wonder.

Some critics will say Jamaica goes above and beyond that. True but they have had 10 doping violations already this year and we have a long ways to go. I don't see nearly the amount of cheaters from anywhere else in the world except the USA. The truth hurts.

The reality is that the senior level or Athletics should refletct the junior levels in the major competitions. That would mean whites and asians winning medals in many of the events. It will never happen because of peds and the fact that the system is set up to prevent it from happening! African athletes are not superior despite what they want you to believe.

There are many great athletes of every skin color period! They just don't want you to know about the white athletes!

<div></div><div>Really?  10 doping violations this year?  Who are they?   I won't hold my breath waiting for you to list these imaginary "10 doping violations already this year".  I guarantee you'll delete this post without answering because you're LYING.  Once you delete it, everyone will know that you're a LIAR. 

Hey troll stop signing up and posting the same crappy post, we've been over this before so if you have been lurking you should know that Jamaica "protects" it's violaters while white countries like Russia DO NOT. So there will always be more violation in a country that actually punishes cheaters compared to one that does not. Is that so hard for you to understand?

I have seen WL document news articles of Jamaican track stars being suspected of a failed drug test, that the IAAF didn't find proof of (Jamaican cover up?). Was it exactly 10? I don't know. However, I'm sure WL knows pretty close to how many it was. Jamaica is a pretty small nation to have around 10 alleged failed drug tests though. Russia is a much bigger nation with more track athletes overall in all the different T+F events. Jamaica is more specialized in the fast twitch explosive events like the 100, 200 meter, sometimes long jump etc. and has less of a professional T+F pool overall I'd bet. Am I correct WL?
