Best Fights You've Seen at Track Meets

late 1930's, some japanese kid cut in with less than one stride on an american kid for the world junior mile championship. grandpappy harry ran for president in a grand scheme for revenge. ended up dropping a couple nukes.

granted, it wasn't at the actual meet, but "little boy" did scorch a track or two...

but the real irony was that the offending kid was out for a run in the cool mountains instead of doing his normal intervals, and escaped all injury.

whipped them nips. too bad it's the last war the u.s. half-won. the generation of the 50's didn't have the guts of the 40's. china, korea, vietnam, cambodia, iraq, afghanistan, marked the beginning of the end of the U.S. Empire, the pussy u.s. was defeated in disgrace with their backs turned towards the enemy. every read the greatest generation by tom brokaw. not too many of those guys are still alive.

Wow, well you're just too cool for words.

(by the way, the fact that you wrote LAPD sort of negates the need to write 'pigs' after it. Not that any of it had any relevance to this thread anyway)

This was a great finish - admittedly, I was trying to get Lunn out in to lane 4 where the hurdles were set up. As we crossed the line, he pushed me pretty hard from behind and I turned around and said come-on man, lighten up and offered to shake his hand... he held on and wouldn't let go so I shoved him pretty hard. Tom Jordan (author of Pre) was doing the commentating for FOX Sports NW and commented that "These two look really upset with one another. It begs the question; I wonder what kind of audience two skinny distance runners could get for a Pay Per View event?"

Not that I have gained 50 since that race, I am ready for Jake Paul.
