volleyball is unique as it is the only sport in the world not invented by the English (unless you count that Mongolian one where they ride around on horseback fighting over a dead goat)

ive been following him on twitter for years. hes one of those people who say everyone is on drugs. i love those people;.

but at the same time shes probably right.

im not sure i would say it was righteous exactly. she knew it would wind up black people as sha-carri has become a kind of symbol of 'blackness' becasue of her attitude and nails and hair and refusal to tone it down. she just wanted to get a rise out of black people out of boredom i guess, using the formula piers morgan has perfected.

craners reasons for calling bolt a drug cheat centred around his working with drug cheat doctors and coaches
and i think thats fair. if you choose to do that and people suspect you of taking drugs i dont think you have any real
right to gripe.

Been thinking about this - all the talk about spikes, the fast track - I wonder if it’s a distraction so the doping goes unnoticed. Some ridiculous record breaking going on in some events. Records which have stood for ages because the previous holders were possibly dopers.

that ross tucker youtube is definitely worth a listen although to summarise he says the track has rubber
particles which gives it the trampoline quality athletes have been mentioned and may have particularly
helped the hurdlers and he says the shoes take the piss and he says there has been virtually zero drug
testing over the pandemic period and these three factors are what have caused the breakthroughs.

in other words humans havent improved even moderately

It's funny, I lost all interest in the athletics after watching the women's 100m final. It was like the bad old days of watching Maurice Greene: transparent, dull.
