the 800 is a joke imo.
a race shouldn't have that much contact.
if you find yourself in a bad position, you shouldn't be able to elbow/shove your way out.

Mcbride got boxed in by athletes in the outer lanes, shoved Hoppel to try and get space and then tripped on someone else. He should be DQed and Hoppel should be placed in the semis.
He has an excuse, but is it valid? He just didn’t have it.
Amankwa goes home devastated!!!!
Anderson forced his way in thru the field

Still have 2 more entrants, but it's not looking good. Got to get at least one through.
McBride shoved Hoppel hard before he fell, that definitely screwed Hoppel’s race that was some bull sewage there
A bunch of crybabies
US women 800: Best ever
US HS men: Best ever
US HS Women: Best ever
US Men 800: Worst in decades
Everyone wants to start in 2nd or 3rd place, they all crunched in at that spot. If you don’t want the contact, start faster or slower.
It’s another night with a half filled stadium

Never heard of this Bol 800 guy, but Gail sounds like “Pizza Bowl” referring to him. :)
Well - he did get 4th in the Olympics final. Do you follow the sport?

There is a difference between contact and blatant shoving
Miller and Mu. She's a head taller.
McBride was dead last last guys.
it sucks for Hoppel, but they can't do anything about it. those guys ahead of him had nothing to with it.

This. ZERO chance that was the reason for that performance. My god, I have run 800m races and been pounded far worse than that. Like I'm a fan of Hoppel but let's cut the sh-t on this one, McBride got what he deserved but Hoppel didn't have it and what happened after 150m had nothing to do with it.

And he did it on the STRAIGHTWAY!
Somebody needs to tell this British lady that the Canadian's name is Brandon McBride not Dillon McBride
Miller ran the whole race in lane 2
There are levels in this game
