[gunna get it]

Angelo what the hell!?!?

disgusting

 

[brrraptors]

@ the girl that thought she won.. i immediately knew it'd be an NTgif

only way bolt couldve made it look any easier than that quarters was if he crossed the line doing cartwheels.

bershawn with the tweaked hammie, hopefully it will hold up enough to get on the podium. but he got off to a slow slow start. as im writing this Angelo justgot bounced from the 400 hurdles

that last hurdle was a disaster withthat stutter step and sideways b.s .. hes done! classic case of not taking the prelims not serious enough (unless hes injured and we dont know)

dudes are out front chilling and having a convo.

@ Angelo Taylor, I've never seen such stupidity in my life, to be considered one of the greats you need a World Championship title on your resume.

Edwin won 3
Kevin Young won 1

I'm looking at the START LIST for the 400m Semi's and it doesn't look easy at all for anyone. It's 3 Semi's (I hate this method) with theTop 2 in each plus the next 2 fastest, for the USA looks like Sanya will be the only rep in the Finals if she runs a good race.


400 Metres - W Semi-Final
first 2 of each heat (Q) plus the 2 fastest times (q) qualified.

Chambers and Bailey will challenge Gay and Asafa but nobodys beating Usain.

Jessica Ennis lookin good to win the Heptathalon for Great Britain keep it up girl

kerron just dominated her race with that 10.92. a very good start certainly helped. Sturrup had a great start too just not the same top speed as kerron. thewomens 100 finals at this rate should be
