Karsten Warholm with the 7th fastest time in history :hyper: :bowdown:

I'm so much looking forward to a WCH final with Warholm, Samba and Benjamin in it. 

 

I'd murder to see that.

Note to FBI: this was meant as a matter of speech, not literally.

I wonder if he’ll miss the Pan Am Games in 2 weeks. He’d be devastated if he did. In a interview he talked about how wanted to get :IVB a medal at all the major events.

Williams is freaking mad at Jamaica not already having selected her for Doha, holy crap, 12.32 :yikes:  That's the second race in a row where someone moves to 7th on the all-time ranking :d

He already won the Commonwealth Games, and he was actually the favorite for 2017 Worlds before he got injured that year. He would have been the 2019 Pan Am favorite, and still will be a huge favorite in Doha.

Some observations about this diamond league meeting:

- WADA officials must be crazy mad after seeing how blatantly Ingebrigtsen and Warholm are cheating

- Jamaica had a slump, but now they just don't seem to give a shit anymore. Blake and SAFP are suddenly world-class again + the girl in women's hurdles who came out of nowhere + the guy in men's long jump + Dacres. To be honest i understand it, considering that Kenya has had half of their athletes banned during the last 12 months but is still allowed to send a team to global competitions. I also have to say that i absolutely understand that russian athletes/officials are angry. Compared to Jamaica/Norway/Kenya/Ethiopia they were playing perfectly by the rules.

- I also hope that some of the british athletics officials will talk to Dobbin and tell her that she can't go on like this anymore: Until 2018 her best was 23.31 (and before that her best was 23.94) and then in 2018 she suddenly ran 22.59 into a -1.3 m/s headwind, all that at the age of 24, this is just insulting to all other athletes who have to compete against her.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

    • That is absolutely certain. Any somewhat reasonable politician should be good enough to win against someone like Trump, even with the unfortunate timing (for the Democrats) of having to carry the brunt of the COVID pandemic consequences and so any Republic having a bit of a head start anyway.   But yeah, dreadful performance overall from Harris, who seemed to start quite positively, but then just lowered herself to Trump's level in terms of throwing shit at each other. That was a terribly dumb choice, nobody is going to beat Trump at the insult game, as we have seen.

    • It was never a priority to stop the war but to prolong it to offload the old weapons systems and keep Russia occupied in a conflict. But the West's strategy backfired as it pushed Russia to friendship with China. Many don't realize as Russia and China are actually adversaries even when they shared a common ideology during the Soviet era
