You're a moron, b.
And you keep proving it again and again.
Take a look at my post on this thread. I talk about Chambers and Obikwelu, and refer to previous threads on which I've talked about them also.
Nobody started threads specifically on Rodgers or Bledman because it was more appropriate to discuss them in existing threads that had titles devoted to the WINNERS of those races (Mullings and Gay), just the same as the title of THIS thread was devoted to the WINNER of this race (Lemaitre).
But of course you wouldn't know that essentially all the athletes who ran in all of those races were discussed, because you didn't even read the posts.
You didn't read the posts because you really don't care about sprinting, you care about hatred and conflict for its own sake.
You're so incredibly lame. Why don't you go find some web forum devoted to racial disparity, inequality, or injustice, in whatever country you live in?
According to your logic, why am I more interested in Collins and Gatlin than the faster sprinter Lemaitre? Is it because they are black?
And there's no denying Lemaitre's race. He's the first of his peer group to achieve something, and it is only natural that members of that peer group would be particularly interested in his accomplishments, EXACTLY THE SAME THING that happens in any other field, with any other race, color, or nationality.
Who gives a crap if some people are interested in him because he is white? The point is that they are NOT interested in him for the reason that he is NOT black. It is not that they aren't interested in black athletes, it is that they are interested in Lemaitre, because he's special to them. You don't hear them discussing Collio, DeGregorio, Connaughton, etc, even though they're white, do you? Is it because they hate white people?
Do all ethnic Chinese people hate blacks because they are interested in Liu Xiang?
Do all black people hate asians because they are interested in Condoleezza Rice?
And for myself, much like probably most people here, I couldn't give a crap if he is black, white, purple, green, whatever--anybody who runs under 10.00 is unbelievably good, and worthy of specific mention, especially when they WIN a meet they're running.
You're an embarrassment here, b. You're embarrassing to ALL races, whatever your particular race happens to be. You're embarrassing because you're an idiot, and an obvious hate-monger. Even if some people are interested in him specifically because he is white, that is no reason whatsoever for you to assume that those same people are anti-black. There is no logical connection.
Take a look at yourself, b. You're not making any sense. Your ship is sinking--rapidly. And nobody cares if you go under.

And in interesting news, what the heck is the matter with europe? In their club final only a single guy goes under 10 seconds? WTF?
It's not a racial thing, either--there are plenty of blacks in europe, especially France and England. For a continent that apparently cares so much about t&f, why does their male sprinting representation suck?
Chambers, a 33-yr old ex-drug cheat, coming second?
Obikwelu, a 32-yr old has-been, coming third?
And only one guy under 10? Amazing. Given the population and the popularity of track over there, I'd expect better.
