Athletics 2016 Discussion Thread

I am surprised that both Braz and Barber didnt win a medal. I expected Barber to not repeat his performances from last year, but of course he still has a lot of time to prepare for Rio. In Rio it could be very interesting between Barber, Lavillenie, Holzdeppe and Braz. The level on the womens side has really exploded. About 10 athletes are able to jump 4.80 m or more, apparently there has been some new discovery. We have seen tons of junior/youth world records in the last couple of months.

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

Wow, what a result for our 2 athletes. Mihaljević gets bronze in shot put, Ivančević 4th in hurdles, both with PB. It couldn't have been better that that!

Powell what a mental midget once again :roflmao::roflmao: Unfortunate for Spanovic, but Reese showing again why she is a long jump legend, amazing last jump with all the pressure. :bowdown: Also great for Mrs. Eaton, finally breaking that second place curse. Now Ashton needs to bring it home today. :d

That was a stunning women's long jump final...Reese exploding with 7,22 in her very last jump :bowdown: 

And what on earth was Konomo Kai of Japan doing with a full step behind the board at all three of her jumps?!

 

Also an amazing 800m to close of the pentathlon, what a performance by Theisen-Eaton to take the gold, even though she had a little help from Mokhnyuk :p

    • and the extrem right didn't say something about nationalities of players ? God thx the scorer "Moise kean" was African 
    • Ah, as if that weren’t enough, Fratelli d’Italia (the largest party in parliament, the same one PM Giorgia Meloni belongs to) is demanding that the federation’s leadership come to parliament to explain the reasons for the failure. One of the rare times the government and opposition are united
    • Obviously, like every four years, the usual media circus has kicked off, with Italian politics and the government demanding the FIGC president’s head on a spike. Meanwhile, since the president is also an idiot, he doubled down, saying that football players are the only professionals and that other sports survive on government money. And so, the little theater begins, with the big stars of other sports launching a media storm (rightly so) to insult overpaid football players who can’t even achieve the minimum results. (https://www.ansa.it/sito/notizie/flash/2026/04/01/processo-allitalia-laccusa-di-irma-testa-a-gravinaveri-professionisti-siamo-noi_64c726d6-ad2c-43ff-9679-847b49ac3914.html) A national tragedy, once again. For the third time in a row.    
    • They traveled 3 days to go in Mexico and still they qualifed to WC, unbelievable.
    • Agree. I remember when they beat Argentina, 6-1, in La Paz some years ago. 
    • Without altitude, this Bolivian team is nothing. 
    • Iraaaaaaaq   find transportation was complicated without plane , they even claimed postponing the date    finally they did it 
    • in Paris we got 40 medals and 12 golds and we had disappointing campaigns in quite a few disciplines we should have got the 15/50 already 2 years ago and we're on the raising curve in a few sports tbh, as it is right now, that 20/50 target is definitely realistic, maybe a bit optimistic, but realistic
    • there's always the chance to change that just take 5-7% of the Superenalotto prize money and you have fixed the problem (and coni gets more money than ever)
