To think felix won 200m gold, sanya won 400m gold and then felix, Jeter, Madison and knight broke the world record in the 4x100! What a talented line up right there!
That was a great moment for the American runners at the trials but when they got to London man oh man Usain bolt and yohan Blake it was worse than The Saint Valentine's Day massacre 100 m 200 m and the greatest 4 x 100 m relay in history
08/29*2024 - 2008 Olympics I believe she should have won that one too. She had been winning all the 200m races up to the lead in. VCB got the jump on her in the 200m and she only beat her by a hair. It was unfortunate her coach at the time had not been having her run 100m races too. Maybe he was and it was just not her time. Either way she is a legend. Thanks for all the fond memories of Track and Field Allyson. You are a true goat.
All Felix had to do was lean. Dipping your head is not leaning. You lean at the waist. If she had lean, there would have been no dispute about who got third place.
@@jaredbowen3527 🤣 You're such a fanboy. C'mon man, get real. Your buy just embarrassed himself in Paris. Ran his mouth about 4 gold medals and came up with 1 only. Queen of bronze.
4:15 what kind of question is that? what do you want the jamaican sprinters to know ? mate, this is not WWE lol.. these american reporters overhype/sensationalize everything
@@coupeboy392 I think he is if you look at his career he’s won every major medal and he’s run insane times post suspension. If usain bolt says he’s was his greatest rival that means something
@@JaneDoane Tarmoh pulled out as she thought she had the place then this decision was overturned later so understandably must have been devastated and probably didn't want to end like that
It was declared that janeba won the spot, but the officials went back again and checked the race and they actually found out it was a tie, they offered Felix and Janeba a runoff, but she backed off and let her training partner take the spot. This has nothing to do with Felix bribing.
Felix did not bribe anyone, but no doubt Janeba was put in a precarious position. She had everything to lose and nothing to gain in a run-off, adversely, Felix had everything to gain. I think she felt insulted and betrayed by Felix (through a misinterpreted verbal concession by Felix to relinquish the 100m spot without a challenge). I would've had the young ladies compete against each other in Europe prior to the Games. The majority of the athletes continue to compete en route to the Games anyway...
@@gazzelle4 she has a spot on tne team to gain 😂. They both had the same issue/possibility. Allyson was going regardless in the 200. Allyson wasn’t a 100m runner and thereby it was tarmoh who has to prove herself. She gave up.
