Fvck Gregson can drop the hammer -
I got 54.0s last lap but he was in a bad position for much of that lap.

Fast enough to make up for that rough positioning.
I love how the athlete display show the Australian provinces (?) each athlete is from. Do broadcasts in the US do that for states? I can't remember, if not they totally should, with state flags and all. -
Thrilled that we can watch videos from other countries' championships and not our own!

"Fvck Gregson can drop the hammer"
Well, yes, to a point. Nothing blinding about his acceleration - it wasn't Ovett like in its fierceness.
Also he was very badly positioned for most of the last 500m; if he had been in a championship final, against runners of roughly the same ability as himself he would never have been able to put himself in a position to make his final kick. -
Terrible positioning. If that happened against any Kenyans he wouldn't be in the medals

Those poor backwards sods haven't figured out the paywall yet. -
Morgan McDonald smoked it in the five!

tough with 50 states. I don't know the state flags of probably 40 of those 50 states. -

They're states in Australia, too. You Americans aren't all that special -
Where are all the Kenyan-Australians? Doesn't Australia have an Army?

They have Aboriginals, and they play in the AFL
Unless they are Cathy Freeman Or Novis Peris -

exactly. He's only coming back from that at 12 seconds slower than world class.
