for what purpose to compete in the 100M? she cannot beat fraser, she cannot beat vcb, she cannot beat jeter,
all she will be doing is wasting valuable energy - that can be better used for getting the gold in the 200M

Well I'm surprised. Is this what Jesus would do?
and who is to say felix won't get a worse start? just because she ran a smoking 200M doesn't necessarily translate to she can run a smoking 100M
It was the right decision and the fairest way to settle this. I'm excited!
You are giving New York a bad name with your inane thinking. An Olympic spot on the women's 100 meter team, a berth she has been training for, for months and you want her to just pass it along?!? That's just plain crazy. NOBODY, not even Tarmoh's grandma would expect her to do that

gimme a break! she could have flipped a coin. she could have advised to give the win to Tarboh - what on earth does your remark about understanding sprints have anything to do with it?
she needs fresh legs to win that elusive 200M - does she think VCB and Fraser are going to roll over and let her win?
does she really think she has a chance of even medalling in the 100M?
Are you that dumb? Her legs were as fresh yesterday as they would be in London if she doubles and, oh wait, she dominated and ran an insane time the Jamaicans havent. STFU
i really hope NBC is working on covering this race. everyone will be watching
you are really an idiot and must live under a rock!
is your rock so big that you are not aware of the times that the top 3 jamaicans ran in the 100M
is your rock so big that you are not aware of that the 200M has not occurred as yet?

Actually, Wejo beat you to it.
http://www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=4662833this is stupid!
she has already secured her berth in the 200M!
she constantly talks about being a failure if she doesn't get that elusive 200M gold!
do you think she can even get bronze in the 100M? why waste time and energy on an event that she has no chance of even getting a medal.
you people are too stupid!
Not sure why anyone thinks she needs "fresh legs" to win the 200 since she ran the 4th fastest time EVER in the 200 yesterday after running all rounds of the 100. It's not like a distance runner where you're tired if you run the 10k and then the 5k.
you are an idiot - have you checked the schedules for the 100M and the 200M? Compare them to the week's break she just had at trials and come back to me.

Obviously a marathoners mindset over here ^
these are sprints bud
have you looked at the schedules of the olympic events?
have you looked at the schedule of the trials?
pretty much the same way she said that her legs were tired when she ran the 200M after running the 400M at worlds.
she cannot medal in the 100M - so why waste energy and time running it at OG?

Wha??
why do you think VCB smoked her at OG in 2008? Did you notice what time VCB ran? Did you notice VCB did not compete in the 100M?

no. you are wrong. you're comparing how a runner feels after a 400m vs 100m? your logic is just flawed, so just stop.
you are an idiot - check the schedules of races at OG and compare that to the schedule she ran at trials.
the jamaicans' 200M
sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

People said Rupp couldnt beat Lagat, people said Eaton couldnt break the WR, people said Lance Brooks couldnt throw an A standard on his last throw to make the Olympics. Luckily those athletes believe in themselves and dont listen to negative LOSERS like yourself. Again, kindly STFU.
