We've identified the problem.

What time on the video do I need to look at to see him on the ground?

Ok, I see it. I was watching the wrong white guy with a stupid haircut.

Easy win today for Jakob today on the 3000SC.

8.50

60 last lap.

The Ingebrigtsen brothers are obviously outstanding athletes. As sportsmen, however, there is much to be desired. If we isolate it to the past weekend, there is room to be soured by this crew. They showed little dignity in disaster and no humility in victory.

Filip's hissyfit after finishing fourth - when he blamed the "pile of idiots" who didn't run fast enough or with the right strategy, and thus cost him his deserved glory - is painful to read.

Jakob asserted that "I can win without even trying".

He is probably right in his assesment, but his decision to brag about that to the world deserves scrutiny.

Just now NRK published a long "news story" about how "innappropriate" a few people on social media were to Jakob. The story consisted of one screenshot of a facebook user saying he deserved to fall down given his atitude, but offered no insight into the user's source of outrage (the athlete's arrogance). This was then followed with quote after quote from his father and brother saying how immoral and misguided Jakob's haters are, and how Jakob represents the joys of athletics. This was subpar "journalism" to say the least. It was merely a sounding board for his father and he Ingebrigtsen clan.

No. But an interested and critical observer, obviously.

Yeah. If he feels that way, why is he competing in U20 events in the first place? Dude can go run in the real WCs if this is all such a joke to him.

It's like choosing to play JV when you could be a varsity starter and then making fun of the kids who you're better than.

He will be pretty lonely in life. It's sad.

"No treble for Jakob...."

No treble? Who says that? Never heard it.

People who are all about that bass.

He fell but it's hard to see initially. Heyward won with a 52.9 close and he had the courage to be up in front at the point that Ingebrigtsen decided to stop running in last and move up toward the leaders on the outside. My support for the kid is cratering right now. Show some class.

I wonder if he's doping like his brother who is likely doping...probably all of them are.

Also wouldn't be surprised if he's taking a page from the Kenyans and actually at least 19 right now.

Wait. Filip thinks he should have won a race won in 3:28? And the other runners (who are far better than him on his best day) are merely there to make things optimal for him? What stopped him from chasing the leaders if he is in such shape. Stupid runs in the family, I see.

From Google translate. You Norwegian speakers can correct it if it's wrong:

- "It went too late. I have a bunch of idiots in front of me who failed to keep up. I had to skip for three and a half round and slow down on the lane when it climbed. If this is the best they can give, it will be fun during the World Cup, "said 24-year-old.

Fighting talk, young man. I'll bump this thread after the final in London.

More google translate of what appears to be typical Norwegian charm:

"It's impressive to be number four here. He knocks three times world champion Kiprop and becomes the best European, says NRK commentator Jann Post.

Even Ingebrigtsen was very annoyed after the race.

- The hell it was bad! Damn shit They jogged here, I was not a bit stiff sometime. Oh, it was so bad tactical, almost screaming Ingebrigtsen after the finish line.

Again, who stopped him from going with Tim Cheruiyot and Manangoi?

People who watch football, meaning soccer.
