Caster Semenya Aims For 800 and 1500 Records

Semenya hasn't even won a diamond league meet. How is he expecting to break the world record if he cant even win. Oh yeah, that's because he's sandbagging

Someone in the press should ask him what brand of razor he prefers.

When s/he pops 1:52 and Oscar blitzes the 400 in London next year we can say that RSA has transformed the sport.

Somebody on this message board should ask you what brand of tampon you prefer. Well, coach d, what brand of tampon do you prefer?

The letters in Caster Semenya can be rearranged to make the phrase :a secret man? Yes.

Thank you sports illustrated.

Is it just me, or does she look sort of feminine in that photo? Don't get me wrong, she still looks WAY more masculine than me, but I'm wondering if she's under some sort of hormone treatment now to girl it up a bit.

You are excused for finding her attractive. It's OK. You're not alone.

It is pretty clear she is sandbagging now to make folks think she is "changed." Just wait for the races that matter and watch him destroy the field. It is a joke to think anything different.

It's not a secret. You have to be pretty dumb not to know. The only question is whether he's about to run 1:55 again, or whether he's waiting for London. But given what the Russians seem to be doing, the South Africans may need to find a man that can run 1:50-52.

What are the records for fastest man in a woman's race?

What were the actual results of her gender test? I'm truly curious. Does she have an intersex condition? Also, if her hormone levels are in the normal female range, then she truly doesn't have an unfair advantage against women. Granted, she does look manly and muscular.

The whole thing is a travesty. He/she is clearly a man, but political correctness, or whatever, keeps the powers that be from banning him from women's competition.

I have no doubt she can break the 800 record if she resolves to. The 1500 record? No.

I think he can break the world record, he just has taped his d*ck to his thigh too tight recently and it affects his stride...

The guy had his freaking wang lopped off when he was baby. Can you imagine that shit? Cut him some slack.

I believe it was suggested heavily and maybe even confirmed that she had some sort of intersex condition where she had undescended testicles instead of ovaries. Someone correct me if I am wrong on that, but its what I remember. I'm no sex/gender expert so I don't really know what that means in terms of advantages but I find it unlikely she did not have some sort of hormonal advantage based on that information. I then question how giving her hormonal correction removes the advantage she has already gained in muscle mass and having been able to train at higher intensities for years. It's the same reason I believe all confirmed dopers should be banned for life.

Also, since she identifies as female its appropriate to refer to her as she, not he. I'm looking at you coach D.

"She" is in sub 1:53 shape. But for financial reasons...Until London she will be jogging last 100 meters.

this could be a nice little earner if you can get a decent price on her winning.

She/He/It is totally coasting thru races this season. It is embarrassing for the sport to watch.
