The new fastest man in the world is…An Italian????

[ftpjesus]

Many wondered who would take the crown that was abdicated by Usain Bolt after his retirement. The individual is… Lamont Marcell Jacobs in 9.80. His win is considered a significant upset in Tokyo as many were sure Fred Kerley who finished second was the favorite. (His time was 9.84) Some Canadian finished 3rd at 9.89.

Part of the reason this was considered such an upset is Jacobs hadn’t run below 10secs at all in 2021 so cutting suddenly .2 off his best time of the year is indeed significant in running the 100m. Now the news that makes this a little painful for Team USA. Jacobs was born in El Paso TX thus he was a US Citizen by birth but never could get traction with USA Track and Field. He was able to compete for Italy as his mother was from Italy thus he was a dual citizen. His Dad was American and yes he was Black. (Hey let’s be honest African Americans have pretty much crushed the sprint events forever it seems).

Oh so an American immigrant/slave descendent didn’t take gold. And it bothers you enough to make a thread about it.

Hardly the point. You have inbred countrymen that make such posts and you basically dismiss the ignorance which it is based on

[NickyPipes]

I was surprised to see this headline, didn’t even know men’s 100 final was today. Would have tried to watch, no hype this time with Bolt gone. Winning time seemed slow.

Is there a single men’s event/Athlete that is being hyped at all? For good or bad, The sports media definitely has decided to go all in Hyping the women athletes.

[NickyPipes]

You are right. No hype no interest. I haven’t watched at all. Events like 100m are normally considered must watch TV in the Pipes household

merely correcting the implication that the USA track authorities ignored/cut out jacobs from the US team...according to the article, jacobs has lived all but the first month of his life in Italy--indeed, he is more a resident of Italy than a US citizen, thus his representing Italy is fitting--its not like jacobs used a loophole in the rules to gain entry to the Olympics

You stupid douchebag. Women outnumber men in this world but are still considered second class citizens from the likes of you who on no effort of your own were born in to what the rest of the world considers the luckiest of people

That is how fucked up you are that a majority, which includes your mother, is properly represented in a global event

Answer up any dumb fucking cunt who dares or is so stupid to do so.

Oh so an American immigrant/slave descendent didn’t take gold. And it bothers you enough to make a thread about it.

I think you’re a dead head

Not much into the Grateful Dead. And I’d rather be me then an unabashed hopeless alcoholic. Already grew up with one as a parent as it was. As for the idiotic slave comment really.?? Nobody’s been a slave in the USA for now a large majority of its history. Slavery ended in 1865 less then 80 yrs after we spanked the Brits. The country is now 245 years old meaning 167 years or twice the length we have existed. GFTOH. And my family never owned slaves just to clarify. My dads family came to the USA just prior to WWI and my mother was/is Canadian Born thus my dual citizenship. I have zero guilt to own. And idiots like you give the rest of Canada a bad name.

Are you fucking serious right now dumbfuck alchy. I’m half Canadian dumbass so hey I’m part immigrant also jackass. GFY. I’ve never lived nor have family from the states of WV and others who are known to marry their cousins. Your a fucking waste of air. Go drink a case of shit and down a bottle of Tylenol and finish your liver off finally. You’ll do the world a favor.

Go take the women issue with some jihadi Islamic whackers and get back to me. When you can stop the chattel treatment of them among the Middle Easterners then you can worry about the fact you THINK women are treated unfairly in the Western Countries.

I’ve outdone you in life including not being a covid conspiracy nut job who no doubt lives with a sheep and is himself an overweight diabetic nurse who was a trump supporter along with other many psychotics
You are out. No more talky with nutties
