The whole thing confuses me. Why is this so difficult?

Well the 100 is done, and all I can say is that if we don't use the 200 men we are in big trouble ... Doc is just short stepping way too much .. And I'm convinced more than ever that Rodgers is just not ready yet for this stage ..
That said, Crawford to Spearmon to Gay is the way ... But dang I'm not sure who I want to anchor at this point !!!!

Doc cramped, all is not lost.
We are under the gun but do not sell Rodgers short yet he performed just as well as Frater.
Wallace better be ready otherwise it is another Jamaican sweep of the short sprints

Yes Wallace better be ready to blaze the backstretch ...
I'm real curious as to how Jamaica puts their team together at this point ... Specifically how they place Bolt and Powell ... I'm sure they've got to be thinking about anchoring Bolt .. In which case, where do they put Powell ... We know he can run a very good turn, and I am wondering if they reverse them from last year ..
If so, Tyson on third is more important than ever ... Crawford to Wallace to Tyson in the attempt to put someone out of reach !!!
You say Doc cramped and I believe you, but he's been short striding for the past month - that gets caught ... I really don't care if Rodgers performed as well as Frater - Frater couldn't make our team either !!! I'm almost inclined to say put Trammell on anchor ... I know he has heart and turnover ... Or maybe take Charles Clark and throw him out there ... Lots of recent collegiate experience and 200 strength and used to running with Dix ... Might be able to hang on for the finish ...

OK ... So I hear we're running Crawford to Rodgers to Tyson to Doc ... So that tells me we've given up ... Rodgers couldn't make it to the final in the 100 and Doc may as well not have ... Spearmon ran 19.85 in the deuce and has been a part of every successful relay we've had in the last several years but is getting passed over why And almost anyone would be a better fit than Doc at this point ... He's just not been sharp ... Women could still get the record ...

We shall see. Definitely not very encouraging, and given Wallace's current form I cannot see why we would not use him.

Yeah, the US doesn't seem to know what to do at this point. Did I hear that Powell is injured and out of the relay? So the better question is, who/what does JAM run?

DAMN, now look what has happened with all this fiddle-f*(kin' around with the order. We are DQ'd and under protest.

Is this the same organization that banked its entire opinion on what happened in the relays last year and disbanded the relay program and scapegoated a good man behind the scenes? Now we are in ass covering mode? We need to be upset and saying as such. Add GBR to that JAM duel meet and let's rock and roll.

Well before we schedule any meets can we reconstruct our leadership .. No, let me restate that .. Can we find some leadership that can take us into battle ... Because what we have now couldn't band together to bake a cake - let alone win a meet !!!
