[Kinkybyname]

Having a big appendage is a burden, trust me. Constant bruises on the side of your knee.

you may not even need any equipment for this event

That Saint Lucia girl barely broke sweat there.

Julian Alfred giving me some hope that she can deal.with Richardson in the final.

 

[Claytop]

Fairly certain Asher Smith choked at the last Olympics too.

 

[MCFC1993]

Neita into the final. Clayton looked fast.

 

[Eccles Blue]

That American girl in the 100 M looks as if she’ll get tripped up by her hair at the start!! :-) :-)

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Fairly certain Asher Smith choked at the last Olympics too.

She had an injury for that one, to be fair.

What's happened to Jamaica?

Is Richardson the one that got banned for Tokyo because she'd smoked weed?

Channeling her inner Cucurella. A bit more stylish, mind. Which wouldn't be difficult, let's be honest!

Has a history of it I am afraid.

Yep.....

Opinion | Sha'Carri Richardson changed after 2021 cannabis scandal. Here's what didn't.

Richardson’s emotions after winning Saturday night seemed to be as much about being denied a trip to Tokyo as it was about qualifying for Paris.

Yes that's the girl and is now supposedly dating Christian Coleman who was banned for missing drugs tests. Not much likeable about her.

 

[MCFC1993]

Missed that earlier, won't be missing it tomorrow, got to love mad shit at the Olympics.

All 4 British athletes qualified.

Clare getting ready for gold medals to match her blouse tonight?? :-)

Not as bad as the PJs last night. She needs to have a chat with her stylist. If she needs tips on how to be suave, dapper and sophisticated, I'm prepared to offer styling tips. For the appropriate fee, obviously.

No, that’s very generous of you but I think she needs to speak to Dame Denise Lewis for tips on elegance.
Your generosity has been noted. :-)

 

[MCFC1993]

I do like the mixed relay, thought we'd have a good chance of medalling but less sure now Bol is in for the Dutch.

 

[MCFC1993]

Absolutely fucking buzzing for Bol, she fell in the same event last year and cost them a medal.

She is phenomenal.

Bronze for us too is great.

 

[Gaz76]

Wow Bol just ate the track

 

[Frank the Yank]

Bol… holy shit!

 

[MCFC1993]

Bol ran 47.93, that is world class.
