I am NOT looking to help Williams case one iota anyway.
he did run like a banshee and running DMR the day before did not help him, 50 point probably felt like 52 point after his PR 400M leg the day before at 46.64
You said Williams was a 1:49 guy who should never sniff a third leg.
All I said, was he has run under that 3 times with a HUGE for the time, 1:48.39 split just last April, there was no reason with him being .5 faster from scratch not to expect better than 1:51.9.
It is what it is, I don't make up the data.
Williams was out way too fast and that killed him, but it was certainly within reason to expect a 1:48.5 and that would have given them the 3 seconds needed or at least made Andrews OR Wheating have to get after it, all else is speculation.
You also could not jump fast enough at using a term like BLUDGEONING for what Loxsom supposedly did to Rollers, when a term more like "barely edging" him was much more appropriate.
But after all you did CONCEDE that point to an actual poster on letsrun, thank god for mini miracles.
