Dennis Mitchell (her coach, for those who don't know) is cloning her at his image (far too histrionic for my taste...even if at least she has a nice smile)...

 

I hope he's not also helping her with the same "medicines" he used to take by himself during his career...:rolleyes: :whistle:

His real expertise was excuses. Certainly “beer & sex with my wife” is in the all-time top 10. (No. 1 - Raimondas Rumšas - “they’re for my mother-in-law.”

Do you seriously think that there is the slightest chance that she isn’t doped to the gills? Personally I don’t see how she could become a big star with her looks.

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

no, no.1 is absolutely Francisco "Paquillo" Fernandez: "I tested positive because I used to practice cunnilinguus to my pregnant wife"...:yikes: :rofl:

by the way, Marcell Jacobs, after stunning the world with last week's 9.95 clocking in Savona, got an harmstring injury (1cm wound) and he's out for a while...:nopompom:

 

hope he recovers in time to get back in his best shape for Tokyo, but I fear his season is heavily compromised...:cry: :facepalm:

If it's confirmed that kind of injury is nothing serious, very common in high level athlete, nothing compromised, there is all the time to be in the best shape by the end of July......

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas.
