Brassiere hardly ever looks comfortable. He can look smooth at times but there seems to be little power in his running, as if he is running with lower back pain. He could not push down the homestretch at all.

No.
Yes
This night has been full of surprises.
Crouser of the Podium
Brazier and Korir out of the Final
Thompson of the podium.
Bowie nearly pulled and miller and fell over after she finished to take the title.
The commentators have mentioned that it is cold in london several times.
It is 62 degrees Fahrenheit ( 17 Celsius) , which is not ideal for explosive events. I wonder if that is throwing people off.
That, boys and girls, is why you practice your dip at the finish.
Thompson did not even get a medal. Schippers for bronze.

Looks like it!
why didn't Ta Lou lean forward? did that cost her the win?

Thompson's interview on BBC was refreshingly humble. She seems like a really nice person.
American trial system coming to fruition here...race fit.

Maybe the Jamaican sprinters are like the Kenyans in the cold, they just are not used to it and don't perform as well.
Northern latitudes FTW.

Wow, you could hear Kovaks yell "oh f*ck off" when the judge raised the red flag. To be fair, in the replay it looked like he didn't foul.
For stupid overweight pigs.
This is not at all cold for England at almost 10pm.
when does the arguement about diving across the line begin??
These commentators are horrible. Barely talked about Bowie, all they talked about was Thompson and Ta Lou even though Bowie won!

Yes...Elaine Thompson. CHOKE of the year.
USA wins both men's and women's 100 from lanes 8 and 7, respectively. Schippers bronze from Lane 9. Those outside lanes have been kind.
I saw that and wondered why the hell he is running the extra distance. Makes some sense he is trying to block out the other guys...weird and kind of evil.

Clever dirty trick by Aman, breaking the wrong direction and keeping everyone in lane 3.

No it doesn't make any sense.
