Lauryn Williams said, "They are sending the best Americans. The rest of the world better watch out", lol. Yep, the rest of the world better watch out for the Jamaicans because no one else was getting near the medals. Clean sweep Jamaica. Went back and did it again in Tokyo.

[@kevinlang7510]

Well this is when THEY started to somehow ALL OF A SUDDEN figure out how to run times none of them had NEVER seen before and NEVER saw again hmmmmmm

MUNA LEE SO UNDERRATED

[@3748359]

Little did these ladies know Jamaica was bringing the most dominant women’s 100m team they’ve ever had... so much so that the one they thought they had to watch (VCB) didn’t even make the Jamaican team in the 100m

yea. they stepped up their juicing. jamaica doesn't even have a drug testing program

Veronica didn't make the team to Beijing she finished fourth in the Jamaica trials. But the thing is none of the American finish in the top three in Beijing olympic.

[@vikingrolloishot1789]

They had no idea the jamaicans were going to demolish them in the birds nest at Beijing Olympics 08.... lol

[@Obkerry]

It is very clear that Veronica was big name both in US and Jamaica....one thing they forgot was the unknown Shelly-Ann.

[@Haraka111]

That's because Shelly Ann personal record the previous year 2007 was 11.34 .......2008 she runs 10.78 and is the Olympic champion... One of the biggest improvements in history...

​@@Haraka111 other athletes have had massive improvements but nobody ever talks about them. Sha'Carri Richardson went from 11.28 to 10.75 as an U20 athlete at LSU yet nobody ever questioned that. Melissa Jefferson who was apart of the 4x1 winning team at worlds last year went from 11.22 to 10.82 in one year, yet nobody questioned that. People, only have the strength for Shelly. Lol.

@@tysongay969 if you look at Carl Lewis history.. he ran 9.80 and shut it down maybe 10-15 m before the finish line ...I know it was Windy.. but the next race was legal. What if he was in that heat and what if he pressed all the way through. or imagine when he ran 19.75 200 M and shut it down maybe 30 m before the finish line.. he had 19.4 happened sometimes.. the greatest ever Flo-Jo ran 10.61 in the semifinals I think that was the quarterfinals. Slowing up way before to finish line.. she felt it when she ran 10 49 she pressed when it was time to press.. don't know if this is Tyson gay for real this is KZbin land LOL.. had you press with that 9.77 you have had the world record for a moment thats for sure...
