Of course we all know the world championships finished on Sunday but already we are having diamond league events advertised left right and centre.
I feel that after ten days of athletics where we crowded world champions I am happy for the season to end. Anything after that is just diluting and over exposing the sport.
Can you imagine playing the superbowl and then a week later back to regular season games?
Can you imagine NBA finals and week later regular season games?
Maybe we need a scaled down world championships every year to crown champions of the sport. You can Qualify to the finals though area league performances (Africa,Asia,Europe,Oceania,Americas) Then end the season after that when the best really collide for a world championships. That way more momentum for our sport and each year means something.
Of course would need financial backers but do feel that people Would buy into that more and athletes would become more recognised throughout their area and the world.
