    it really did look like she false started. but that is a hilarious protest. damn, jamaica is just owning sprinting. america is going to suck at T&F it seems like this time. shot put sucked, our 100m sucked. can our relays do anything?

    why are there so many pointless track and field event? what's the difference between running 400 meters and 400 meters with a hurdle and a pool of water.
