Unofficial Day 3 Eugene World Championships Thread

woooooo-weeeeeee

Anna Hall is having an insane season given how long she’s been performing at her best this year

Its got to be a practical joke by some executive at Peacock to have Gail Devers as commentator, right -- right?

Pole Vault - Only five women cleared 4.70. Sandi Morris is in 1st and Nageotte is in 4th based on misses. Bar is moving to 4.80 (15'9")

I've been on the World feed exclusively for Worlds/Olympics since 2016 Rio. I miss Ato Bolden and the US athlete interviews, but that's about it. Leigh Diffey makes my ears bleed, and then I completely hate the commercial breaks even mid-race in the steeple (it's an 8 or 9 min race!) and the complete lack of focus on any non-American or field events in general.

Gail (who is great!) seems to be Rob's sidekick. Rob is truly excellent.

Hmm, I just can’t get excited enough about most of the field events and wait them out for track.

She might as well not even be on the call. Rob Walker is doing all of the talking. Get us Hannah England, John Anderson, somebody, anybody.

I can't believe I didn't find this before.

I keep thinking I clicked the wrong button, and I'll get a big bill in the mail?? :) This is too good to be true.

She's not beating KJT, but a medal is in play. Best runner in the field by far.

Loaded 1,500 Heat #1 just snuck up on us! Here we go baby!

That animated cartoon muscle man they show running during context switches is so tacky it’s actually funny. Couldn’t they get better graphics techs?

I think the CBC feed is the world feed, which is really excellent and commercial free. Rob Walker is a fantastic commentator and makes up for Gail Dever's lack of insight on the events!

Australian vaulter missed twice at 14'7" and then clears 15'9" on first attempt. The pole vault is never over until it's over.

This 1500 heat is wildly stacked

Ingebrigtsen is an amazing human being allowing a dying 10 year-old to live out his dream of becoming a tattoo artist.

But a FAST butch lesbian.

They look so much faster form that low angle.
