Allyson Felix vs. Jenny Simpson: 800 Meters

Way to insult AF, jesse the f*cktard. JK was a major doper, so what you are really saying is that AF is as well?

Why do morons like you bring up inane topics that will NEVER happen anyway. Time to stop playing with yourself and go get your homework done.

Another moron who cannot read. I give up. I am a genius who has been wasting my time with inferior intellects. It is time for me to leave this wasteland...

Yes, more accurate analysis than anybody on these message boards. I appreciate you having the capacity to recognize this, despite your typically inane offerings.

The only thing you're good at, is being an f'tard. You don't provide good analysis, you are just flat out stupid, immature, and....well an F'tard.

Don't waste your time responding to this teenage dweeb. He's been called out numerous times before for asinine comments. Your're arguing with a 16 yr old.

I need to remember not to read any threads where "Jesse is a friend" posts. I have to deal with too many grade A douche bags in real life.

I know that I am fascinating, but there is no need for me to become the subject of the thread. The thread is NOT about me, despite the overwhelming interest in me. Please show some respect and if you cannot contribute to the subject, why bother posting...

You are one with exquisite taste. Allyson Felix has a better chance of breaking the U.S. record in the 800 than she does in the 100 or 200. This is obvious to the intelligent.

Jenny without a doubt. Im sorry but Felix would not win at this moment in time. The question is if Felix trained for it, but what if they both trained for it? 1500 to 800 is much closer than 200/400 to 800. I knew kids in high school who could run 50.x with no previous training, but couldnt break 2:10. I know that may be considered irrelevant, but you get what im saying.

jesse - you are obviously a dyed in the wool masaochist. You have been beaten and whipped to the core for your idiotic posts, but yet you keep coming back for more. It must be a very shallow life.

Thank you Sarge, Can I Have... wrote:

Masochist? That implies that the words of morons carry any sting. I feel as if I am surrounded by mental midgets who hurl disparaging comments my way. Who could take them (and you)seriously?

But again, you have contributed NOTHING to the thread's topic.

Agree (does AF even have a competitive 800m time though?)

Highly unlikely AF would be world-class at the 800 (Jenny's PR is 1:59 and she only runs it occasionally). There has never been a world-class 100/200 combined runner that was world-class in the 800 (well, lets not go back too far where the competition for world-class was thin.

By the '80s, competition was not thin.

Let me see, it goes something like this:

You are not very bright. You lack the mental capacity to fully comprehend and engage in an intellectual discussion. Come back when you are not afraid to debate with someone with a superior intellect.

There....did I get it right jesse?

Jesse's got a point. You guys seem to be obsessed with him.

Your school was just slow. Millions of 400 types are forced to run the 800 with no specific training every year and they always seem to break 2. If you don't believe me, search some schools with really good 400 runners like Texas A&M or LSU and you will notice the slow 400 runners blazing 1:52s and stuff. Also, search slow schools and you will notice the same phenomena.

I get what you are saying and agree

Just because a sprinter is relatively skinny does not mean they can do the middle distances either. It's more to do with muscle composition than size

This thread is comical. Jenny Simpson would win by 6 seconds or more.

allison felix is very beautiful

Allyson Felix has a 0% chance of setting the US records in the 100, 200, or the 800 so I would disagree that she has a better chance.

Exactly. Since AF is faster then Sanya Richards don't you think she would also be faster at the 800.

No, quite the opposite. To be faster at 100 & 200 suggests Felix has more FT fibers. More FT fibers suggest a slower 800 time since middle distance races require a nice balance of FT & ST.
