Why do these BTC folks NEVER race?
Makes them look shady as hell.
Why do these posters ask dumb questions? It makes them look like they haven't been watching track this year.
Like I get that it is a meme that BTC never races, particularly in 2019, but this year is a pretty bad year for these takes.
In the last month every member of BTC has raced except Jager (who has paced a race) and Houlihan, both who have documented injuries right now. BTC have also organized or helped organize more meets and races this year and invited other groups. Eg Prickly Pear invite was ooeganized by BTC and they invited Team Boss, NB Boston, and Tinman to it. Very shady behavior throwing a meet and inviting all your rivals...
Not even June yet, but Schumacher has raced Johnson 7 times this year, the same number as Elle Purrier. GDS has raced 5 times, same as Kate Grace. Josh Thompson and Marc Scott have raced more than Jake Wightman and Josh Kerr.
Again, the only people we are missing now are the ones who have either said themselves or through their agents that they've had long standing injuries to work through. I hope they pull through so we get real showdowns in their events.
