Maybe Americans should get off the damn rail and stop constantly trying to pass on the inside. We've seen it through this entire Olympic Games. Not to mention throughout the Trials.
I think I've also seen more falls/trips/people eating track between the USA Trials and these Olympics than any other major championships in the last 15 years.
I just got home from spending the night with Suzy Favor Hamilton, and she agrees that it should not be a DQ.
1400m of racing Andrews had- and he managed to put himself into that pickle. Of course I feel for him- but he took two fat steps inside the rail- it's over- shame- nice guy- might have been able to Cacho the field if the race went out slow
Just got back from hunting the wild lion with David Lekuta Rudisha. He also agrees that Robby did not deserve the DQ.
Myself and the other 3 golfers in my group just got back from helping Hillary Clinton get up a set of stairs , Clinton agrees Robby did not deserve a DQ.

Don't you mean to say "David Lekuta Rudisha the world record holder in the 800"
The DQ is the right choice. You have no business trying to sneak from the inside when you clearly have no space to do so. It could have been dangerous for everyone behind too had he fallen.
He seems like a good guy but that was a dumb highschool move.
It's more of a shame that Mead isn't on the 5000m final startlist than debating Andrews DQ.
Mead IS on the 5k final list. He was reinstated.
I just got back from driving Michael Phelps home so he doesn't get another DUI, visiting Abbey D'Agostino in the hospital, and interrogating Justin Gatlin about who forgot to bring his vitamins to that 200m semi final. All 3 agreed that Robby should not have been disqualified.

Would it be cheating in your mind to eat a bucket of dried walrus testicles?
Maybe with some BBQ sauce and a cold beer.
I just snapchat with Ryan Lochte, and he thinks both Webb and Andrews are liars.
I just returned from playing a Tecmo Bowl tournament with Dan and Dave and they agree...No DQ.
what does Pheidippides know?
he's all slow twitch.
I just talked with Mike Rossi, he said with should consult with Barb.
remember Webb threw down that 100 in like 11.5 for no reason in the middle of a race.
Not according to the iaaf startlist
Just finished a virtual realty session with Katie Matlack who confirmed that Rojo is still a bigot but that Robby should not be DQ'd.
I just instant messaged Tiffany McWilliams on AIM and she says everyone should advance to the final.
Just read a message in a bottle I found floating in the Indian Ocean. It read "Please send help we're stranded and starving to death, also Robby had room to pass on the inside, no DQ!"

I mean it wasn't for no reason, Webb was GOING FOR THE WIN BABY!
