Multiple runners hit their personal best times in the same race, which is a statistical anomaly... Anyone pointing that out is not racist but merely analytical. Let's quit the tantrums.

Shame to the likes of Michael Johnson.. The record stands..

It’s unfortunate Michael Johnson took the bait. The man who actually started whether the time was legit or not was Andrew Cotter, the Scottish guy who was commenting with Michael on that semi final race.

The bbc crew comprising Kwakye, Collin Jackson, Jessica Ennis and Denise Lewis were full of admiration for Amusan’s performance. Ennis called it an ‘unbelievable time’. Collins was the man analysing and trying to convince them there was nothing wrong with the time. He said that young athletes learning hurdles should watch Amusan and see how it’s done. He called it a perfect race.

About Cindy Sember ‘running slow’….Collins Jackson said that Sember improved on her 12:53, and of course if others were racing quicker and ahead, someone like Sember would feel that she wasn’t doing enough or running at a slow time. She managed to shave off 0:03 off her time to break her sister’s Tiffany Ofifi Potter’s record.

Amusan was simply too good on the day and I hope she achieves same at Birmingham commonwealth games.

It was Andrew Cotter who started the ‘time’ controversy.

It wasn’t a statistical anomaly. Nothing is wrong with the time.

The controversy was started by Andrew Cotter because of Amusan’s 12:12. Other athletes like Cindy Sember improved slightly on their personal records because of the quality of opposition on the track.
Cindy’s personal best was 12:53….she ran 12:50 to break British national record held by her sister. That difference wasn’t much.

If you like to earn in dollar, just get a side hustle like crypto futures trading

I can guide anyone that's interested in learning crypto futures trading. You won't regret learning it. You can pay after making profit because knowledge is not free.

Only Almighty God knows how many world records were broken by young Nigerians running to jump on speeding "Molue" buses on the roads in Lagos in the past.
Miss one step, you are a goner.
And world records broken in sprints running to escape from the bullets of the guns of SARS police officers.

They're "black" Americans not "African"

Not all blacks are Africans

They don't think like Africans

Whether they like it or not, all blacks are of African descent.

The way we always reacted to this racist people make them to always want to do more, ignoring is a classic revenge.

If we can ignore them the world wlsee it as nothing but if we react they wlsee it as something terrible.
Walahi I always feel the best way to reply them is to ignore them. When we reply them racists it shows we're pained, consequently want to do more.

Back then when we were kids, our friends tend to do more when we show anger to their taunts. But when we ignore with silence, they feel stupid and allow the us to be.

Same thing should be done. We should ignore them stupid mofos

Thank you for looking at it that way.
Those who had ever worked with African/Americans in the past will realize the type of ENVY that majority of them display when it gets to issues concerning Africa. Many years ago, one of them said he was not AFRICAN/AMERICAN. He said he was American.
When you go to school right on American soil and land a good job, what they say is: "you are taking MY job". But do they go to school to get that job?
When you consider everything, you just have to shake your head and move on.
