I wouldn’t be surprised if Palestine and Israel don’t show the other’s accomplishments
Or Ukraine and…oh yeah

Russian athletes just run/compete under different flag.

They try. Oh they try but we know.

He isn’t lying.

I 100% agree with him.

He isn’t lying.

I’m not sure what he means by relationships
Also sure the 4x100 mens (and mixed relay) underperformed, but I think it’s hard to complain any other speed event

I'm not entirely sure, but I'm guessing he thinks they're being too buddy buddy and not going with 4 best who can run the race. I do think the big problem is they need a consistent group who have run together for years. Iirc, when Lyle had to withdraw, they didn't just swap him out, but moved the lineup around. That really doesn't help. 24+ years without a gold in the event they should dominate is long enough. They haven't made a change yet and other teams are having a much better time with fewer mistakes because of continuity. They maybe can learn a thing or two from the others. Other teams will make an occasional mistake, where ours is every Olympics.

I don't understand it though. It shouldn't be that hard. I've run relays before and with some practice, it's not too bad. Timing is everything tho. Taking off too early ahead of the exchange will wreck your race more often than not.

This isn’t new as he has been saying this since Tokyo.

Good luck Carl.

And while your at it, stop by the USSF offices too.

If it wasn’t know before, Noah Lyles has that dog in him.

The guys are definitely showing out better than yesterday, but I've seen better...much better.

I, unlike you, can find the athletics in beach volleyball. But also I can find the athletics in most dancing like ballet. I just cannot find the athletics in break dancing.

ETA: Do these "athletes" get drug tested like all the others?

From personal experience, I'll say that you've gotta be stupid athletic to do some of the more difficult moves. There definitely are some who would make this look like child's play.
