Wow: 40-year old Kim Collins just beat 20-year old Trayvon Bromell in 100m

If I had a son, he'd run like Trayvon.

In my mind, that doesn't make you a solid 9.8x sprinter, I prefer to take the average of your 3 best races, which would make Bromell a solid 9.9x sprinter. 9.9x means you are in the chorus

nonsense

if we used that method, then we woud call bolt "only" a 9.6-mid guy

Kid ran genuine 9.84 & it couda been quicker as only prelim round 1 of trials & easing off at finish

he couda run 9.8-flat flat-out that run & that's what he shoud be considered ability-wise at peak if healthy & motivated

Look it's Vent!!! Wassup bro?

Keep living in the dark ages. What do you do at the Olympics? Everything is measured in metres.

You do realise that South America, Asia, Europe, Australasia and Africa all use the metric system, don't you?

PED lives matter

What makes you think he is taking anything?

- He has run consistently at or around 10 seconds - fast but not mind-blowingly fast. Solidly world-class (10.18 being the standard).

- He does not have a history of injuries (injuries impede training and "force" athletes to retire).

- His reputation among athletes and coaches is not dirty.

He does not have a history of injuries (injuries impede training and "force" athletes to retire).

He once shattered both of his knee caps doing back flips.

Another time, he hip fractured badly while racing.

Not saying he is on anything. Tend to think he is clean. He has the requisite natural quickness, strength, agility, hip flexibility. Has solid coaching. Great sprinting is mostly natural talent.

Hi Broken hips and knees:

I did not know about that. Wow. I stand corrected.

Funny Trayvon also broke both his knees.

Are broken knees the new PEDs?!
