Have never seen breakin in my life until today but I'll go to my grave knowing that Logystyx got robbed by Nicka and the judges.
I doubt it's "karma" since it's been going on for at least 4 decades. Like I said, it's gotten to the point that bad relays/handoffs are pretty much tradition for the American team.
I thought they had beaten it last year at the WCs - they smoked everyone and brought back the same squad (minus Noah but turns out that part didn't matter) Carl Lewis talks alot about the relays - they should just put him in charge for the next WC either they'll win and he's validated or he'll have to stop being annoying about it. It's ironic bc this is a post Bolt golden age for USATF sprinting but the dudes still can't get the stick around at the Olympics
