SEC 10k DNFs?

nice jump to conclusion... in the SEC, if you are lapped and not in the top 12 (in the 10k), you are pulled from the track - when the conference is won in the 28's, chances are that a lot of runners will be lapped - so, there is not any issue of "lack of commitment", simply an SEC rule...

actually, Craig lapped all but one...

Yup, and if you read the previous poster's post, you'd realize that is irrelevant.

"in the SEC, if you are lapped and not in the top 12 . . ."

I agree with just because.

Oh, yea, and I was standing on the outside of the track on the first turn, and when Steve Hassen got lapped and the officials told him that he could stay because he was in 12th place, he threw his fist up and yelled, "YES!" It was relatively funny.

yeah i can recall that situation from some indoor 5ks- it can lead to mid race kicking to get into a place where you are not eliminated.

Why can't you twit-brains learn to spell a person's name.

"Cragg," not "Craig."

It's right there in the results you pasted to your post. Is common courtesy just too much to ask for?

dumb-shit rule

I mean, I could see indoors maybe, but outdoors?

please

What does spelling a person's name correctly have to do with indoors or outdoors?

If the above post is laced with sarcasm it was witty to the tenth degree.

If not...

God help us all.

the greatest atrocity is Mike Poe runnin the 10k. he should still be runnin the 1500! what is he thinking? with his leg speed, he could dominate the 1500 in the next few years on the SEC scene. all this is going to do is take crap out of his legs, and give him more slow twitch fibers.

didn't he run like 4:09 1600 last spring? that is WAY better than 30ish 10k!

Poe has teammates who ran faster in high school last year. Maybe that and the fact Macdonnel knows what he's doing is why Poe ran the 10k

Nothing you see in the normal competition at a track meet is an atrocity.

Check the dictionary just a little bit.

Since you know so much more than McDonnell...

yup

Buxom, you're just a spunky little thing now aren't ya?

I love the intricacies of your writing and incredibly strong command of spelling dictionary navigation. Just where did you obtain your collegiate credentials? I am impressed by someone with such admirable secretarial skills such as reading and spell checking!

Can't you guess?

Technical side: English 101a, 101b in Razorback country many long years ago.

Sarcasm, satire, ire, wit, and humor have been polished to their current rapier like imperfection by bumbling along serving as a horrible example so many times at so many levels...

For anyone at the SECs I have a question. In the 5k there was a guy from LSU that went with Cragg and Sandfort then dropped out at the mile mark. Anyone know why? He didn't look injured or anything. I just thought it was an odd time to drop out of a conference meet when you are in third place.

Okay, now I have to ask:

BB, you didn't happen to post on the old TNFmedia, didya?

you're a f***ing idiot. did you really think that 10 guys just dropped out in a conference race. you obviously have no clue about anything, have you never seen this before. what really sucks about it is that some of the guys probably didn't realize what was going on until they got pulled off the track as they were trying to sit on the back of a pack and pick guys off. get a f***ing clue man.
