Matthew Boling 19.92 - into a minus .09 wind!!!

So explain John Teeters, according to you he either: 1) is not white, 2) severely underperformed in 200m. Or he violates your categorical rule.

Matthew Boling runs both sprints as did Christophe LeMaitre, not all sprinters run both, Teeters was no 200m guy and we know that. Jeremy Wariner ran the 200 but was more a 400 cat, he wasn't a 100 sprinter.

When we see white sprinters who run both sprints we will see them being more successful in the 200m, history has proven this fact. Ok, ok not every single one just the vast major majority.

Since 2000 we have seen Kenteris, Guyliev, Paul Hesson, LeMaitre all world ranked in the 200m. Only LeMaitre at 100m and he was ranked higher at 200m.

ONE MORE TIME

Check out the world rankings, we see more white sprinters ranked than we will see at 100m, simply a fact.

After Boling takes off his MULTI MAN costume at Georgia and turns pro, his event will be the 200m, not saying he never runs a 100 or a 400 what I am saying is he will have his most success in the 200m. Would wager my Jimmy Brown rookie card on it.

"For the 2004 Summer Olympics, Kenteris was one of the hopes of the home crowd for winning a gold medal in athletics and favourite to light the Olympic flame, as he had won the 100 m (10.18) and 4 × 100 m relay (41.16) gold medals at the 2004 Greek Championship in Athens and the 200 m gold (20.27) at the 2004 Athens Grand Prix Tsiklitiria, just one month before the Summer Olympics. However, on the day prior to the Games, Kenteris and his training partner Ekaterini Thanou failed to attend a drug test.[1] While they claimed to have been injured in a motorcycle accident – in a frantic attempt to return to the Olympic village for the test upon hearing the news in the media – an official Greek investigation would later find that the alleged accident had been staged. In the ensuing doping scandal, Kenteris and Thanou announced their withdrawal from the Games on August 18, after a hearing before the Disciplinary Commission of the IOC, for what they described to be "in the interests of the country".

Everybody who posts here knows the sport so why go there? Very old news.

Love when LRC "improves" a thread by changing the title so it's wrong ("minus .09") and adding some incorrect information in the OP itself (19.92 into a headwind is worth 19.98 without wind? Which calculator did you chedck [sic]?).

The problem I have with what you are saying is that there isn't anything yet in his times to suggest he is not only a better 200 sprinter, but that he won't excel at the 100 as well. Which his high school record and being under 10 seconds already suggest otherwise.

You are basing it purely on race, which seems a little bit well. I do understand your argument, but you are only looking back the last 30 years (which is a decent sample size) where as that isn't when men started sprinting.

But don't you find it quite quincentennial that white sprinters started to disappear in the 100 and overall about the same time. Even though countries like Russia, Italy, England etc had top sprinters back in the day and then disappeared.

Even now, Boling just set the high school record for an event you say he won't be competing in due to his racial background. Maybe things like that, happen more often than we think.

To my point, I bet there is an Indian sprinter from India who would be a top sprinter but doesn't have access or doesn't see himself in that sport. Race is a poor indicator of talent a lot of times.

Give me the name of a white NFL cornerback

Why do we need to pla silly games over what we all see and know? I go with how things actuall are and yes we are not all the same, this should be very obvious.

I am into the history of track, football, music, a geek/nerd will work. I know what I;m talking back with this. I said this about LeMaitre......he will end up a 200m man,....well huess what?

Yes, if you are dumb and not good with numbers, you should stay quiet and get out of the way.

Simply how it is...

1973 200m world rankings

1973
1...........Renate Stecher (East Germany)
2..................... Irena Szewińska (Poland)
3........... Mona-Lisa Pursiainen (Finland)
4.............Petra Kandarr (East Germany)
5........... Marina Sidorova (Soviet Union)
6................Ellen Streidt (East Germany)
7.....................Raelene Boyle (Australia)
8.............Doris Maletzki (East Germany)
9........................Denise Boyd (Australia)
10..... Christine Heinich (East Germany)

You ignored every argument I made and went to pro football? That's just silly.

Seems like your point is basically white guys can't run the 100. A little racist considering it's been done many times already, but we know that's ok in today's culture against white men.

Ask yourself this.

Since Allen Wells won the event you said no white guy can win, what do these 100 meter champions have in common...

Carl Lewis (who most think was doping but not caught but he's my hero so let this slide :)

Christie (doping)

Bailey (doping)

Green (doping)

Gatlin (doping)

Bolt (come on......watch the documentary on how they test the Jamaicans)

Jacobs (I suspect it's coming but it's too early to catch him I am guessing)

ALL have in common. There's a nice hint there.

If the Russians, or the Italians with Jacobs (came out of NOWHERE) wanted to dope like the East Germans did or the past champions, guess what they CAN. And they would beat all these black guys unless they have a better doping regimen.

Being a champion is more about doping than anything. Why else do those East Germans still hold all those records. Oh yeah, white people are slow, I forgot!

Dude, how can you totally miss my point so badly?

POINT

If a white sprinter runs the 100 AND the 200m they will have more success at the 200m.

Are you telling me no that isn't true?

History is chocked full of eXamples proving this. There have been 11 times the top ranked 100m spinter in the world was white, 18 times at 200m if talking the men.

Dude, do some homework, take a little time with this, ok?

The first world ranked 100m sprinter was Mel Pattom he was also number one at 200m and the Olympic 200m gold medalist. See how it goes?

Heard the reason for white guys doing better many times in the 200 vs 100 is the height. Harder to run quick & fast when you're tall. Avg top white guy is 6'2". Avg top black guy is 5'9".

This isn't about black sprinters at all. This is about white sprinters having more success at 200 than they do in the 100. And history proves that yes that is very true.

Where are getting this thing about height, show me.

I got your point dude. I disagree with it. You ignore all of mine.

There is nothing in Bolings times to suggest you are RIGHT other than you looking at the color of his skin. Some may say that's.....anyways.

You, at this point, have NOTHING to back up what you are saying other than racial stereotypes that I think has more to do with certain countries having a more successful or willing doping program than someone's color.

Too bad the Russians or Polish etc are not back in their state doping days so they can compete with the amazing Jamaicans (who have the most stringent testing policies ever) and the Americans (Green, Gatlin) who never cheat ever! Then I do believe, white guys, would have a little more success than you think. Kind of like before around 1983 or so....when those countries really stop caring about it as much for other reasons.

And btw, most people don't realize this, but "white people", if you don't include the middle east (I do, but most don't) make up only 12 to 13% of the world's population. There are more people in India than white people in the world.

So unless white people dominate every sport, they must suck at it. It is just insane. Lot's of fast white guys don't go into track the same as many other races. 1.4 billion Indians and not 1 fast one. Seems strange or they don't care!

Unless your doping in the 100, good luck winning a medal. And Boling seems like too nice a guy to do that, but if he wants to win, he better start soon, 2024 is coming and he might surprise you since he is the wrong skin tone and all. And if he does, I will be very suspicious.
