2011 Daegu Prediction (400 Hurdles)

Dare I take this dive...

400 Hurdles

I see this event being effected by two things but however neither of those two things makes me believe that we will see a 1-2-3 USA sweep...even with 4 of the best in the world entered into the meet. I have payed a little attention to this race this year and I see a bunch of things happening. Angelo Taylor is getting better and better as the season goes on. LJ Van Zyl having the best year of his life. David Greene, Bershawn Jackson and Javier Culson have been running pretty consistent. I also see Kerron Clement way off the map as well as welcoming Jeshua Anderson to the sub 48 club. What does this drive me to believe? Well as stated before, two things I believe will show in this event. Experience and Youth...thats right a combo of the two will be the deciding factor. I think we will see this happen:

1.

G - Taylor
S - Anderson
B - Culson

or

2.

G - Anderson
S - Culson
B - Greene

As always...Its nothing personal, just my thoughts and opinion. As always, prove me wrong if you dont like it.

**SIDE NOTE**
Keep an eye on the youngster from Trinidad Jehue Gordon.

More Drug Talk In Track & Field

M. Rodgers, real talk...even if it was a mistake and it's in your system then it doesn't matter, you're fucked! Very unfortunate it is. I aint writing to say guilty or not but a few things came to mind so here I go...

People always laughed at me for eating so much McDonalds over in Europe...I won some races, had a happy stomach and all clean test. I wonder what Trell Kimmons is thinking right now? Its more likely that the IAAF will not & I repeat WILL NOT make a decision before worlds which means USATF may tell Rodgers not to run. If he does run and they rule him suspended because of this test...whatever he runs in will get DQ'd. 100m & 4x100. USATF aint having it! If & I do mean "IF" it was an "honest mistake", still sucks to be him cause IAAF dont care about "honest mistakes" ...ask Lashawn Merritt.

Here is a thought...Anyone besides me ever notice that when someone gets a failed test that they claim innocence on that they know exactly how it happen though? Hmm

Remember this one..."I have never taken drugs! It must have been that masseuse rubbing stuff on me."

How about this one... "Modafinil?! Ummm...Oh yeah, I was taking that because I have a sleeping disorder."

And my personal favorite... "I failed this test because of this dental medication I was taking." (Its my favorite because it actually worked)

Question...If you know what it is that fast, shouldnt you sons of bitches have known to pay attention before it got in your system? Maybe USADA stopped giving out the little card that has all the legal & prohibited drugs on it when I stopped running...Maybe?

For the record, This alleged masseuse worked on me for years and I never had a failed test nor any allegations about failing anything. If you having trouble sleeping...go buy some Tylenol PM's or some Melatonin. They both legal. Thats what I used. If you tired but thinking about going to the club try one of these...
1. Fuck the club...go to bed.
2. Drink numerous Mountain Dews

The game dont change just the players in it...
