I almost feel bad for Brazier.  His career was pretty much dead and buried until recently, becomes the USA national champion, and no one outside himself and his immediate family gives a shit.

He handled it well. He had some interview afterwards where he was joking about being glad that he’s 28 and not having to deal with Cooper in his prime

No World Championships chatter?

Big problem with it being on Tokyo and NBC having the broadcast rights is finding updates on the run.

Here is a link to an good story about Crouser,

https://www.nbcsports.com/olympics/news/ryan-crouser-shot-put-world-track-and-field-championships-2025

He is a freaking beast, the best of all time in the shot, and one of the all time track and field greats for the USA.

Fairy tale over forF cooper.  1:47, and done. 

No fairy tale, you don't post those times in that event and not have talent.

The story is just beginning for Cooper and I think it will be interesting to watch his progress as his physically matures and gains racing experience at that level.

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone is a legend. Now a World Champion in the 400m hurdles and the open 400m (with the 2nd fastest time in history).

Fastest time in over 40 years.  She's gonna break the world record at or before the Olympics. 

Agree on before, not sure on at only because I am not sure she runs both and if she runs and wins the 400H yet again that is very rare Olympic territory to win a race three straight Olympics.

I would love to see the schedule work out for her to shoot for the double in her final Olympics.

An East German woman in the mid ‘80s has had the World Record (by a large margin) for 40 years…

🧐

I’m sure that she wasn’t on PEDs or anything.

Oh, Good Lord, the record book can't get rid of that era quick enough.  

So glad Rai's DQ was overturned.  That was some grade A bullshit.

I think they're gonna work out a schedule where she can do this.  They did it for Michael Johnson in the 2/4 double.

I miss her running against Femke.  Those are my two favorite female runners. It's a shame that they don't meet up more often.
