This is the Super Bowl for track in the US and you can't watch it on network TV? Imagine the NFL's championship game being behind a pay wall and streaming only.

This thread illustrates what a debacle the coverage is this year. Normally these threads explode and gain new pages by the minute. Not this time because hardly anyone is watching.
It’s far better just watching the results page update and not hear blathering idiots talk about “up close and personal” crap for 6 hours.
Thanks, that's what I'm doing.

SteepleSquigs DNS. Haven’t been following but was she expected to race?

Katie Rainsberger dropped pretty early. Has she dealt with some setbacks this season? Was a fan during her hs/ college career

Yes, the announcers thought she was in there and had seen her before. I thought I couldn't make her out cause of the 2005 VHS graininess.

She posted on instagram earlier today that she was racing in heat one. Even posted stories as recent as two hours ago indicating she was racing

No Michael Norman, Champion Allison, Michael Cherry and Elijah Godwin in 400m. Lack of depth in 400m this year.

Get a grip, Slick. She's running in Eugene, just not in the 800.
PS I must have missed your post wanking on about SML not running her event.
Not even close to the same thing. Syd is the favorite in the open 400m and a legitimate contender at world's as well if she chooses to do the event. Mu won't even make the final in the 1500m and is not competitive in the event at all.
You make an interesting point, but it has nothing to do with Shiznitz's complaint. He was complaining that Mu could go to World's even though she didn't run her event in Eugene and barely ran before Eugene. Since "didn't run her event" and "barely ran before Eugene" describe SML as well, my point stands: If you are going to give SML a pass on these grounds, you need to give one to AM.

I didnt see the race, did Courney Wayment stumble over a hurdle on last lap? or did she just get outkicked?

No, she just let up. The top 5 Qs were way ahead, so no need to push it.

Can someone explain why a girl in heat 3 of the 1500 has a personal best of 4:40? How is that even possible.
They allow mile qualifying marks.

No. Syd qualified to run the 400m. Mu did not qualify to run the 1500m. Mu is making no real effort. Syd will likely win the 400m.

Top 5 were way out on their own, so she shut it down on the last lap and finished with the pack. I was a little surprised she let the girls pass her because it seems safer to be out in front with the barriers, but I'll trust her judgment.

In this day of mental wellness above all else, when can we call her a headcase?

Her mile PR is 4:56. I can't see why she is in this meet.
