Agreed. World Records don't come round very often in Men's T&F!

come on brojos, black screen!
I vote wait till the trials are over then give a black screen to the best performance.
He gets my vote unless someone does something amazing in the distance races- sub 13, Webb makes the team, like that.
Is the name of the site letsdecathlete? Is the name of the site letsrunandfield? Did Eaton compete in any distance events to win his event and set the world record?
Ok, I rest my case.
He broke the WR while completing and winning the 1500m.
If the black screen at LRC is an important issue to you, you might want to reevaluate your priorities.
Please, the 1500M is a middle distance event.
Seeing the raw emotion that went into those two days of competition was great. He is what some would now say the greatest athlete that ever lived and I think that deserves a black screen.
Black Screen or explain. This is bad for the sport if you do not give Eaton the black screen.

this was a big, big achievement, and completed in a distance race, so it very much deserves the black screen. the world record! he sure rose quickly through the ranks, but we all saw that a wr was coming from him, maybe not this soon though.
I think any running/T&F WR could merit a black screen. Absolutely when it is set by an American.
Hopefully it is just a delay in getting it up since it is the weekend, not a snub.
I concur, black screen.
