AJEE WILSON stuns field runs 2:00.91 to World Junior 800m GOLD Medal, stay overseas to break HSR

Don't know what rock you crawled from under but you've been there way too long. I'm African American and this is 2012 and noones owes anyone anything in regards to race. As far as athletics African Americans are proving that everyday by winning everything from 100m to 800m at US Championships and Africans doing it from 1500m to marathon on the international scene.

So please stop with your petty dribble it's tiresome and old like you and your mentality.

TO the posters in regards to sub 2 minutes

Ajee was running to win at the World Junior and she laid off the pace the first 600m and then went to the front. Her focus was not on the sub 2 minute barrier but 1st place, she just happened to end up close to the barrier.

Thank your Brojos for providing a forum where racist pinheads from both side of the divide can spew venom at each other.

Although, we all know, there are better forums on the internet for racists. This site was to celebrate human endevor more than settle any scores real or imagined.

nonone owes anyone anything, yet there are a dozen threads here demanding Wilson be recognized more than Cain. Why does Cain have to be dragged into this? Why does her performance have to be denigrated & ranked below Wilson's?Well because she's white, of course. Save your diatribe for your "African" American brothers & sisters who go on ad nauseum about what a racist slight it was not to use the correct font or type in recognizing Wilson, and how it's all some whitey conspiracy..

Neither of the young ladies needs to be dragged into this. People should be happy that we have the possibility of two future great middle distance runners. Everyone with their biases can start their own site akin to LRC and dedicate it to their race and you will have like minded people click and... it will be a borefest of similar minds

The owners of this site have the right to place whomever they want on the site front page. and to their credit they go to great lengths to bring long distance news from all corners of the world

For racists, one thing, there will always be people of different races whether you want it or not. Learn to accept it and your life will be enriched. Hate is going to eat you from the inside

I'm sorry that I wasn't clear. I was only addressing whether she eased up at the end. I don't know and simply ask those who say that she did to confirm it.

I think she ran a wonderful race, letting the pace take her out fast but keeping under control and starting her drive to the finish midway down the back-stretch. Surely her object was to win. But did you notice her looking at the results after she finished?

I also think that those who accuse her of easing up are not being fair to her so I wanted to find out why they say it.

Dude - you're WAYYYY too polite. I'm a white guy, and can't believe some of the sh** I see written on these boards. The owners of this site need to get this crap under control and put an end to it here. Immediately.

I agree and congratulate both Mary Cain and Ajee Wilson. The young ladies are two of the most talented high school female runners ever and hopefully with many years to develop their amazing talent.

I don't see why you have to drag one athlete down to enjoy the success of another athlete. Mary Cain ran a great race and deserves the HSR; however, Ajee ran a masterfully race and thus reward is another (World) Championship (what most athletes target their seasons and careers towards).

yes, remove all content from all media that I don't agree with. Immediately. I'm too much of a pus to handle the idea there are people posting idea I don't like. After all, this is Amerika.

"I don't see why you have to drag one athlete down to enjoy the success of another athlete"

Um yes...that explains why you've spent the last week dragging downm Cain in a hundred posts..

I hope you have a great day MAURICE and enjoy the Olympics. I'm sure Ajee Wilson and Mary Cain both will represent USA in many World and Olympic, until then let's just enjoy their tremendous talent and performances!

Well said.

I was going to suggest the thread be deleted, but you're right. if only it could be moved to the far left and down at the bottom out of sight.

Hey Maurice,how do you explain white genetic athletic inferiority.No white male will win a gold on the track in London.In fact,most white males will be lucky to make finals.

In time the reality of this Poster will come to light. We live all our lives behind closed doors, unable to say what the real truth is, because it may offend a certain race or class. We have let ourselves and our society be drug through the gutter. Nobody wants to speak up, however its just a matter of time before we all realize whats really going on.

Yet, somehow if you found every other post or thread attacking your 'race' as animalistic or beneath humanity or criminal, I'm sure you'd have no problem with the hatred directed at you and just celebrate freedom of speech used with pure ignorance and hatred and no respect for our common humanity.

Maurice

it has nothing to do with agreeing with anything. I don't agree with some of the predictions made for the OG, but I don't think they should be removed or banned. Because (a) they're not insulting and derogatory toward anyone, and (b) they're relevant to the forum.

BTW, it's not 'amerika', it's the internet.

and "puss", has more than 1 "s", fyi.

Hey lpd, how do you explain the lack of superstar NFL black QB superbowl winners?

well said, but a little late don't ya think? Kinda hard to take back your last 97 posts whining about racism because "Wilson's performance was more impressive than Cain's" ad nauseum but Wilson didn't get recognized in the proper place on the front page, since that's obviously reserved for whiteys only..

You were being such a hero, VIPAM, for your brave fight against apartheid here at LRC. Don't stop now. Get up from the back of the bus and take a stand! Don't let whitey keep you down!
