Andre De Grasse is USA's FATHER

The evidence shows that he made the right decision.

So you’re agreeing with me that De Grasse is not the USA’s “father”

I didn't watch the replay, but you should know the rule. One step is allowed. Multiple it's not.

Population has to be factor when two countries are very similar in most other ways. A high school with 2000 kids will typically have a better basketball team than a high school with 500 kids in the same city. This might explain why 17 American sprinters are ahead of DeGrasse in the word rankings. The Canadian sprinters wouldn’t have qualified for world championships if they were American. I’m just saying the Canadians were underdogs.

I will concede that DeGrasse in not the father.

Don’t put so much stock into the rankings. Those rankings had Bol ahead of McLaughlin. We all saw how that turned out.

Are you saying that Canada is a more powerful sprint nation as long as you ignore rankings and number of elite sprinters. Canada was expected to win the 4x100 and there is no statistic or fact that would indicate the USA were favoured over Canada?

and one of the best parts about it is, Andre and Marvin train together. These are incredible championships.

Nope. Just saying population size doesn’t guarantee success in track and rankings should be taken with a grain of salt. Just because there are 17 Americans ranked higher than De Grasse that doesn’t mean there are 17 Americans better than him. He’s an Olympic gold medalist! You are correct though that Canada’s win was an upset. A great night for Canada to celebrate!

You must be new. USA men always choke in the 4x1. Their egos are too big to practice hand-offs unlike other countries. When's the last time they medaled at the Olympics?

I hear this often that the US doesn’t practice hand-offs as much as other countries. Is this reported by insiders or is it just repeated by fans every time they don’t win?

That makes tons of sense. He was afraid of the US sprinters in the 200, but he wasn't afraid of them in the 4 x 100, even though he did badly against them in the 100m?

Face it, patriotic Americans. You're boys got curb-stomped by the boys from up North.

Cmon have a laugh, I was just funnin'

You obvously know nothing about DeGrasse at all.

Bottom line we ran a B team and it cost us.

From Brendon Rodney the day before the finals:

"The USA doesn't practice as much as we do. And every year that team changes. We've been a team since 2015. Now we have the new addition of Jerome. But Andre and I have been running together since 2015. There's no reason you don't win," Rodney said.

"I hate to use it all the time, but the Americans, when they get together, they're such fierce competitors in the individual events that they're sometimes not friends and they don't want to practice really," [Aaron] Brown said.

It's no secret Lyles and Coleman are not the best of buddies. The lack of practice is evident in their historically poor baton passing and outright dropping. My 16 yr old nephew recently ran a 4x100 cleaner than Team USA.

I suggest this is mostly the fault of the coaches, and maybe a little bit of the athletes agents.

^ A truly disgusting post. Verbal rape.

blackcanada probably will get monkeypoo.

When you hear people say "would've" as a contraction of "would have," are you so illiterate that you really think they're saying "would of?"

I bet you also say "has ran."
