Andy Vermin has laid down the gauntlet; how will Lynsey Shart respond

Andy Vermin comes through with a strong run to take the silver in the men's 10000 at Europeans. Good run for him.

Lynsey Shart was 2nd in qualifying in the women's 800. However, if she can't come through in the final, Vernon and his mates will be having a good laugh at her expense, after she ridiculed his lack of results at CGs.

She only did that after he made a total ass of himself on twitter by "calling her out" for using in IV drip when she was hospitalized.

He only did after she attentionwhored her medal incessantly.

Vermin proved he can get a medal without a drip. Up to Shart to do the same or by the laughing stock of the century.

Lynsey Shart? Really?

Commonwealth Medal >>>>>>>>>> Euros Medal

absolutely wrong!! Waaaaay better talent overall in the Euros!!

Pff, Vernon runs his last 800 in a 10000m faster than Sharp will ever run an open 800. Runners like Sharp get far too much attention for the actual level of runners they are.

At 10,000m?

moron

He was the one who follows her on twitter. If he doesn't want to hear what she has to say, the solution is simple: Unfollow

She can say whatever she wants to say

Commonwealth is better for running events

Europeans is a lot better for field events

In general

Yes because it's so much more difficult to beat the Kenyans that weren't good enough to run for Kenya than it is to beat... well the Kenyans.

Well, if Europeans is easier than CGs, she's a lock for gold, right?

Both meets suck - any meet that excludes Americans is pathetic by definition.

What did she promise herself if she medals at Euros?

Well, Vernon got beat by the double Olympic and World Champion. I didn't see an Olympic champion in the CG 10000. Did you?

wooosh

Lynsey wasn't the one complaining about him saying something.

Andy complained because he didn't like Lynsey tweeting about her medal. If he didn't like that, he had a simple solution: Unfollow her on twitter.

Instead, he, and you apparently, think a better solution is to tell her what she should and shouldn't tweet about.

In the field, Europe is a lot better. In the running events, its very close and I'm pretty sure the Europeans are way stronger in the 110 and 400 meter hurdles.

So far today, Dasalou won the 100 meter in 10.06, and Lemaitre came in second in 10.13 running into a negative wind, and in cold, rainy conditions on top of that. I'm sure they would have both medalled in the CG. On the womens side, Shippers won in 11.12 with Soumare coming in second in 11.16, also in cold, rainy conditions. Those times convert to 10.99 and 11.03 in no wind. They would have medalled in the CG as well.

He ran very well. His last lap was very impressive. But he really shouldn't be bitching about other runners like that.

She can celebrate as much as she wants, what's his problem?

He has apologized. I hope he means it.

It's a bit ironic he works for a sports supplement company. For all we know he's tainted himself.
