The 100M Olympic champion has NEVER had to deal with THIS! || Did he do THIS to himself?!

[@TheHuskyK9]

Hill is not beating Lyles, no matter what. I keep seeing NFL fans try to bring up Hill's high school years as evidence, but Hill isn't in high school anymore, he's 30 and decided to focus on football instead of track. Even as an adult, Hill's 60m time was 6.70s in 2023. You know what Noah ran in 2023? 6.51s. And Noah improved his start and most recently ran 6.43s at the World Indoor Championships this year. It's almost an annual reminder to football fans that football speed is nowhere near track speed.

[@ron2237]

Yeah it’s a lot of dumb arguments, but you can’t blame Hill for saying he can beat him it’s in his competitive nature. Sure he would get smoked but I can respect the confidence. Same way Noah said he was going to destroy them folks in the 200 and got smoked like a cigarette. Gotta always have the confidence in yourself.

[@bizzyboomin9277]

The problem is that Noah has taken up the very bad habit of taking shots at people who haven't said or done anything to him. When you attack the whole NBA unprovoked and talk down to your opponents about how they'll be "depressed" when they see you come off the turn, you are setting the bar VERY high for yourself because now people want payback. It seems like Noah, in his quest to replace Usain Bolt in the public eye, forgot the most important part. As this video points out, during his prime, Bolt basically didn't lose. Ever! Noah should have realized that by running his mouth so much, he put himself in a position where he HAD to win those events. Coming up short in the 200 again (regardless of excuses) is not an option when you have exhibited such poor sportsmanship in the runup to the games. Funny thing is that Bolt never disrespected anybody and the attention he got was due to his unbelievable ability, not running his mouth.

Noah lyles ain't trying to be usain bolt or anyone else than himself. He's gone on record several times to say you have to be you in this sport. If you're trying to be anyone else, it won't be authentic. Bolt even told him to keep doing what you're doing. Bolt was never a disrespectful talker, but you can't tell me he didn't have a bit of cocky swagger to him, and that's what made it so savage. Even when Gatlin was having that great year in 2015, Bolt's presence was so powerful he made his opponents make mistakes. For lyles, i think he just says that stuff because that's just how he gets mentally ready to compete. If everyone is nice and respectful to each other, you lose an element of entertainment to all of this 🤷‍♂️

I like to think of it as a triangle. On one point is ability On the second is achievement On the third is likability. The more area of that triangle is filled, the more trash they can talk and get away with it. For the first point, Noah has the mostly reached the ability point. He’s not the fastest man in history, but he’s also an elite talent who’s clearly capable of great times. 9/10 For the second, he has the accolades…just. He’s at the start of his career, and has only won 2 individual events in the highest level senior competitions. The gold medal goes a long way in the 100, but it also nothing compared to the level of dominance of bolt and others. 6/10 And third, likability. And man Noah fails at this one. He’s just not the kinda guy who’s easy to root for. He comes across as cocky, arrogant, and whiny. In the biggest stage of his life, after drawing huge amounts of attention to himself, he fails to win the 200m, and then immediately makes excuses which don’t seem to add up to his behaviour immediately prior. Regardless of if they’re true or not, it’s not a good look. 2/10 So that all adds up to not a lot of trash should be spoken. And yet Lyles has made a habit of doing so. He can continue all he likes, but unless something changes in points 2 and 3, he’s always going to be mocked

Lyles literally won the 100m in Paris by the breadth of his singlet, 0.005 separated him from Kishane Thompson. His 3rd place in the 200m was supposedly due to Covid, but why post a covid-negative test and not the positive one when everyone was asking why he under-performed? And the footage of him dancing the night away 2 days later makes me seriously doubt the whole story.

NOAH Lyles debateablely won the 100m Olympic Title in a time of year. 9.79 sec, which technically was a tie with second place Kishane Thompson. The fastest time run this year over 100m is 9.77sec, and that was achieved by Kishane Thompson at the Jamaican Trials. Noah has never run faster than he did at the Olympic Final, so how can he justifiably be regarded as the fastest. Ben Johnson ran 9.79 sec back in 1988

The 40-yard sprinting timings attributed to many NFL athletes (and high-level NCAAF ) players are almost certainly bogus, and would not be considered remotely valid if subject to proper Olympic electronic timing.

The name Dellavedova would be accented as DellaVEdova. Likely he is descended from immigrants and is 100% Australian, with a cognome finito con una vocale grazie al suo oriundo dello stivale. He probably says it wrong himself. Vedova (first syllable accented) means widow, and it's preceded by the prepositional phrase "della" which means "of the." There is an account in the Bible called "the widow's mite" at the beginning of Luke 21. The Italian translation of that summary is "L'offerta della vedova." When announcers called him "DellaveDOva" I grit my denti.

[@SCATrackandField]

Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate it. Bolt's final race was in 2017. Since that race til now nobody has run faster than 9.76. Three men have done it including Christian Coleman, but his was with less wind than the other 2 performances, and in the world championship final. "Technically speaking" he is the fastest on the clock since Bolt. And he did beat Bolt in 2017 which should count for something.

[@rezhaadriantanuharja3389]

Like him or hate him, Noah Lyles advertised his sport and those who interacted with him well. Many people don't know who was the olympic champion before Bolt bursted into the scene in Beijing 2008 and after he retired post Rio 2016. I myself cannot tell you who won Tokyo 2020 100m or 200m sprint. After Noah Lyles did what he did, now I know he exists, I know there are sprinters named Kishane Thompson and Letsile Tebogo. Heck, I even know there is a footballer with the name of Tyreek Hill now. No offence to Hill, I just do not follow football like I follow NBA.

Let's be clear. Tyreek Hill initially said he would beat him in the 100 and then he tried to change it to the 50 but the audacity to think that he could do it better is it for me. And Gilbert Arenas has no reason to be mad. He's never won an NBA championship! I don't even think he's been in the playoffs before 😂 not unless he was sitting on the bench.

[@Robert_McGarry_Poems]

I never implied that nobody buys running shoes. And I definitely did not imply that a signature deal wouldn't work for return on investment. What I said and meant was that direct athlete sponsorships do not translate into sales. Especially if they are blackout, no mention contracts. And especially if the audience isn't shoe/apparel buyers. A signature shoe, especially a trainer/jogger, would be great. A sneaker? For track sponsorship, though, I am not sure I even understand the audience that would be pointed at... you can't bring new people into the fold if there is no cohesive fold to bring people into... you have to build the house first before you can invite guests. Make the athletes and fans that already exist whole first. Give the people already here a community they can be proud of evolving along with. Then, and only then, can you ask others to be excited about joining in on that...

[@Robert_McGarry_Poems]

All the individual fracturing exudes itself in the format. That carries over to the audience, which then has to understand why. Which usually means other track athletes. We have to give those with no reason to understand a way to be involved that doesn't rub fitness in their face, and actually gives them brand incentive...

Until Noah runs the fastest time recorded in a year, I cannot call him the fastest man. We all saw Kishane jog his way to 9.77. We all know he is clearly capable of more. What if the entire finals line up got Covid and Marcel Jacob’s won with a time of 11.5. Would we all proclaim that he is the fastest man on earth? What if you challenge a Bugatti at the lights, and the Bugatti driver stalls the car, does it make your car the faster vehicle? In my view, Kishane wasn’t beaten by Noah, he lost to Noah. There is a difference.

[@SCATrackandField]

For record keeping sake, Noah ran the fastest 100 meter time of 2023 at 9.83 seconds. Christian Coleman tied it in his final meet of the year in Eugene, Oregon.

[@allandavis8201]

Sorry but you are misinformed about people not recognising or watching the athletics world championships, maybe in the USA 🇺🇸 people are not bothered about about them but certainly here in the United Kingdom we are, they are televised and usually live not recorded. Being second in any competition is not nowhere, it is not just about the winning in sports (except when there is millions of dollars at stake) but these athletes don’t train and compete for 3+ years just to get to the Olympic Games and not win, of course they don’t, but winning the silver or bronze medals is a huge achievement in its own right, even getting to the games is a triumph in its own right, and belittling that just goes to show how ill informed about what really matters to athletes, of course winning is the ultimate achievement but it is not the only achievement, and I think you will find that the competitors at the Para Olympics are even more ecstatic to be competing than able bodied athletes, they might not win but they are about more than winning, they have overcome more obstacles just to get there than any other competitors that are able bodied. You have done yourself a disservice by saying what you did about second place, maybe that is the American mentality but it is not for the vast majority of people in the world, winning is NOT EVERYTHING. 😡🤬🤯😫😖😣☹️🙁😕😟😔😞👎🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇸🇺🇦

[@SCATrackandField]

Thank you for your comment, I really appreciate the perspective. As a track fan I love the stories of all the talented athletes in the field. However, casual American track fans do not show much interest in athletes who don't win gold medals at the highest level. And the Olympics are almost the only time most potential fans watch the sport. I wish it were not so, and have great respect for other nations that support their track and field athletes across the board. There are Americans who share this sentiment. But unfortunately they are in the minority. I am American, and I do agree winning is not everything. But it is all that many people seem interested in giving any attention to unfortunately in this culture.
