So, in the "random" DL events he didn't race any Kenyans in one, and raced only one I'd listed in the other? You're not helping your argument at all.
"That's ten runners right there, meaning Bosse and Langford would struggle to make the final at a Kenyan trials."
Do you still stand behind this ridiculous statement? (regarding Bosse).
Heck, yeah! Pierre-Ambroise Bosse would be extremely fortunate to make the 800m final of a Kenyan trials.

No gold medals for Kenya yet. They're behind even Bermuda so far. Can they win the 1500W?
The golds will come towards the end of the week. Winny Chebet, the only one capable of challenging Semenya for the 1500mW got tripped and won't be in the final. Hoping steeplechaser Beatrice Chepkoech can get a medal.
Why are you sending such a bad team? Do kenyans not care about this stockholm syndrom championship?

You clearly are just an average fan with little knowledge of the sport. Bosse would easily make the final.
Semenya will coast to an easy victory with brit silver and aussie winning the bronze is my prediction.

Such a shame she is allowed to compete.
Grenada wins decathlon?!?!?! Wow how far the brits have fallen. Thompson is spitting chips I am sure. England is suffering the 2012 Olympic blues it seems. A very unimpressive effort from them at these Australian games!

Chepkoech will be in the mix, I'm sure.
Women's 1500m still not run due to technical issues!
Semenya is going to wipe the floor with these girls. None can match her acceleration.
Semenya in 4:00.72 with Chepkoech a distant second. Seriously, no contest.
That dude won the women’s 1500. Not cool.
Beatrice Chepkoech will be tough to beat when she returns to the steeple.
another great win by the goat. I think she is the greatest female runner ever. She probably could win any distance. who has ever done that?

You'll find this hard to believe but I wanted Chepkoech to win, because she was the only one with a chance of beating Semenya. Though Twell has brilliant bottom.

Its not her physical prowess, its her racing courage.
When she attacks, no-one has the balls to go with her.
Well, that was underwhelming, but expected. Oh well. The 1500 should be interesting on the Diamond League circuit this year.

she wouldn't be competitive in anything above a 1500, shes too big
How do people rate Langford and Whiteman's chances in the 800? It will be interesting to see if Amos has anything left at 33.

He is a two-time NCAA Champion.
I could see Wightman 1st, Amos 2nd, and Langford 3rd. Anybody else good running this?
