Just hope for podium right now. It would take some **** ups to nab gold probably.
Strongest performance enhancing drug I ever used was Lone Star beer.
I saw people complaining that Coburn deserved to lose today and Frerichs is so much better and more deserving. Frerichs has the faster times while Coburn has performed better at bigger competitions.
One of the reasons I prefer Coburn of Frerichs is because she doesn't run for Bowerman TC. They are just a revamped Nike Oregon Project and I have zero trust that they have cleaned up their act at all. Not overly shocked one of their top athletes popped positive this year (damn food truck burritos).

Off topic !
I read his/her/it/they/them's comment on the steroids and immediately discounted the accusation. No way someone can prove it true so why make the statement? To me it was a BS statement.Bonzer103 said:aggiedrjdub said:

However, it was a person's opinion that contained no curse words, no specific names, and nothing specifically slanderous. And if everyone's opinion on this site is going to undergo the scrutiny that may get it wiped clean just because it doesn't 'go with the flow', a disappointing precedent is being set by mods and this will be another boring, politically correct website.
How can it be off topic if the name of the thread is Olympic Track and Field and the steroid topic is mentioned every night during the coverage of these events by the TV commentators? Maybe not 'steroid' but mentioning performance enhancing drugs.BigJim49 AustinNowDallas said:

Russia is banned from these Olympics as a country in T&F.
So and so came off a 2 year ban just in time for their country's trials.
Athlete B popped positive 3 months ago and can't attend.
He did say Athing Mu was using steroids

Yep. He said literally 100% of Olympic athletes were. Very strong statement to make without supporting facts.
Woah - I don't believe that at all. I would like to see stats and why he thinks this? I mean, I believe most athletes take advantage of technology and supplements, etc, but steroids? No.taylorswift13 said:

While I agree it's BS, I don't believe censorship is the answer because a mod doesn't like what someone is saying. That's even bigger BS.

I agree.
But that's a very strong assertion to make without proof.
He said 100% are using PEDs. Those mentioning Mu are doing it to sensationalize his statement further and make it personal vs an Ag.
All that said, if I had to make an honest guess, I'd say 40-50%

I would guess its mostly people that have had a fairly successful career already and are trying to fight off father time. Or people close with Salazar

Only these two events will take place today and it won't be streamed fully on the regular track broadcast so you're best option would be these streams!

Thanks, Taylor! Finally got #13- shot put replay- 871 for Annie 4th in shot. Think she is 4 overall.
Any idea where to find standings? They posted but too fast for me.

Annie 4th 98 points behind Vetter in first. Medal looks possible but I never have understood
the heptathlon scoring.
the heptathlon scoring.
Not many people do understand it lol, all that matters is time or distance! The better the time or distance the more points you receive! So as long as she's scoring more and staying towards the top in each event she should have a medal!!
Lindon Victor with a SB of 14.83 and will likely fall out of the top ten of the decathlon, but make his way back into the top 6 top 8 after discus
It seems like it will come down to the 1500m for a medal.
