    I think we can at least agree there are SOME people who seem to be above the law. Or at least manage to be consistently out of arms reach from the law. Therefore, Any athlete named Karen, or the "special" people who are untouchables, they will get a pass if the circumstances are "right".

    No person SHOULD be above the law, and no person SHOULD be able to skirt rules to get into a final. I'm against both things.

    There is also the issue of lane assignments for the 200/400/400h.

    Should the people who get the byes be in the best lanes (4,5,6)? If so, why should they be given the better lanes if they have zero points?

    DL is a series with a final.

    Its like saying a football team can skip the round robins, win a knock out cup, maybe a regional area cup, then rock up to the round robin league finals as well.

    Rojo stop getting your tits in a tangle about stuff that happens outside your domain
