According to Sha'Carri, she's the only American 100m runner with a chance for gold. Hmmm...Big words coming from an athlete who just got banned for illegal drug use and is not competing.
On racing in Tokyo, Richardson said: “I greatly apologize if I let you guys down – and I did. This will be the last time the US comes home without a gold in the 100m.
Think she'll call Jennifer Prandini and congratulate her on MAKING THE TEAM... legally? NOT!
What is insulting about this? Name one US 100M entrant outside of Sha'carri who stands a chance of medalling?
Call Prandini for what? Because she's white? If Sha'carri was running Prandini would not be one of the entrant. This is another stupid thread.

Let's not read too much into the question, as many have on this thread. Whether she's right or wrong is not the point. Yeah, we know she's good and would've been the favorite. I don't recall saying she wasn't the favorite or otherwise. "This will be the last time the US comes home without a gold in the 100m". If I'm competing in 100m or any other event as part of a team and one of my teammates made the same comment I'd be a bit put off. Anyone can win on any day, and I don't think SR can predict anything until she wins a major championship (Worlds/Oly Games) and racks up a few Diamond League victories to validate her talent. The optics are bad for her due to her being DQ'd and not competing.

You need to "Walk the Walk" before you "Talk the Talk".

Nothing personal here...Easy does it!

And WTF does Jennifer Prandini's skin color have anything to do with ANYTHING? I referenced her because she was 4th in the race and is now on the 100m team...IDIOT!!!

Take your RACIST left-wing hate-mongering somewhere else.

Typical Left, always the victim.

No one cares, WORK HARDER!

An 11.00 or worse runner that barely made the final isn't likely to win unless at least 6 runners false start.

Oliver is a 10.9 runner so she definitely has a chance to make the final but not very high chances of making the top 5 and no chance at gold.

It is an arrogant but correct statement by Richardson she may be the only one in the world who can beat SAFP and her chances aren't great.

What if she were your athlete? Isn't accountability and being careful the issue here? If you were the coach, wouldn't you kinda know she smokes weed based on your contact with her?
No? Incessantly warn her of the banned substances...Oh, you know she smokes? Tell her to totally abstain while we are rolling. You have a star. Do not f this up.

Sha'carri messed up. She owned up to doing so and apologized. What more do you people want from the young lady? I suggest that you tell people like Houlihan to cut the bullcrap out and womanup like Sha'carri did.

Just because she's right doesn't mean it's not insulting.
That said, it more sounds like she just wanted to send a message to usada - put dumb bans on people and lose out on gold. Can't disagree with her there.
Eh, I think she's just expressing confidence in her ability and was calling her shot to win gold at Paris and Los Angeles and probably Brisbane too. I don't think she was intentionally trying to slight her teammates, though she's not wrong that none of them will win gold in the 100.

Boy, you are certainly the master of overstatements. Win gold?! Ha! I think you mean even place sixth.

Anyone can win on any day is only accurate if everyone are within the same ball park in terms of speed. Fraser-Pryce, Thomposn-Herah, Jackson, Asher-Smith, Ta'Lou are so far ahead of the US entrants that the statement does not hold water. All five athletes I have listed would have to pull up lame for any of the US entrants to place.

I agree that Richardson needs to chill until she wins gold at either the Olympics or Wolds. .I have said this from day one. Until she does this, she's just making a jackarse of herself.

You dumbarse - how about referencing Oliver or Daniels instead - the other two black women who earned their spot fair and square. You had to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find the one white woman - you bigot!
