Alan Webb's got Robby's back: "He does not 'pass' off the track per the ruling. He is forced off after the pass.&quot

Contact not clear. Looks like his momentum from stupid, likely unnecessary pass on the inside carried him off the track.

That's pretty much what happened. There wasn't enough room for him to pass with normal form. He had to have pulled his right arm in slightly to make the pass. That changes your center of gravity and you drift left.

You would believe it, I was atop Mt Hurley and was working with my scout troupe exchanging smoke signals, while on the trail I bumped into Veborn Rodal he said he was speaking with Andre Bucher who felt there was no way through, but in that situation you would always take the shot. Did feel the DQ was warranted.

Consumed Ayahuasca deep in the Peruvian rain forest when the shaman poured ice cold water on my face to wash off the sweat that was pouring off my forehead. I looked up at his face and saw the face of Alberto Salazar. He nodded his head knowingly and disappeared into the darkness. At that moment I realized that Robby did not deserve the DQ.

Just got off the phone with China, and I'm told that this joke has been so completely driven into the ground, that it's popped out the other side there.

DQ or not Andrews was not gonna win a GOLD MEDAL which no US runner can get in the non-relay flat events this year, Rupp is not gonna win, get real, and only Centro could possibly pull it off, and I don't give a bucket of dried walrus testicles about punctuation dammit

This was a troll but interesting foresight looking back
