100m Prediction: Noah Lyles🥇: 9.41 (New WR) Kishane Thompson🥈: 9.80 Fred Kerley🥉: 9.82 Screenshot this comment😤😤😤📸📸📸😁😁😁
Lyles will NOT WIN 4 gold medals. In fact he will not win 4 medals. Good dream though.
Noah Lyles is going to run 9.41 seconds (New WR) in the 100m Final and 18.6-18.7 seconds (New WR) in the 200m Final for the win. Double Gold Medal for Noah Lyles🥇🥇 Screenshot this comment😤😤😤📸📸📸😁😁😁
love the talk and all the horsing around
Brap brap we ready.... So I will gooo out in the 10th lane lol and say I have Noah finishing 3rd if not won't medal in the 100m
Could happen...
The 100m goes down to who wants it more. Lyles has convinced himself that he will win and the power of the mind is all I’m saying. I think a lot of people root against the US and that’s fine but to not have Shacarri as your favorite is crazy.
I used to train at York University track in the early 1990s and I used to see you training in your grey Adidas unitards most weekday evenings . Last time I met you was at a club called Fusion in early 1993.I cannot ever convey the pleasant shock I experienced when I saw you win in Goternburg in 1995. Then I stayed up until 3 am Central African Time to see you win in Atlanta. Now that I am back home in Africa, I sometimes coach here in Botswana and I know Letsile Tebogo's coach Dos Mosimanyane and just like with you I have watched with incredulity as Letsile Tebogo go from a promising high school sprinter to where he is now. The world is a small place Mr. Bailey .Very good podcast by the way
I’m surprised that you did not mention Jamaica for the 4 x 100 men’s relay
HEY SHA CARRI, ONCE AGAIN THESE GUYS ARE CHOOSING THE JAMAICANS OVER YOU!!!! EVEN WHEN THAY KNOW SHA CARRI OS THE FASTEST!!!! WOW USE THIS SHA CARRI AND ROLL!!!!!! GO SHA CARRI
Summer Olympics is watched worldwide. Winter Olympics is limited to Europe Asia North/South America. ??
Shericka over shacarri you are kidding shacarri will win if she has a good start shericka has not been looking good and hasn't broken 10.80 so your just guessing sir
@@tsmith9063 I have doubts about Shericka beating Alfred in the 100m final let alone Richardson.
I’m guessing you are referring to 2024 when you say that Sherika ‘has not broken 10.80’? Even if you are, you do know who is Sherika’s coach, right?? So you’ll know that barring unforeseen circumstances, she will break 10.80 at the Olympics
Gabby does not train with Julien and Dina and they also have to do rounds that was a one race
Thank you
What about the Jamaican men’s 4x100? You guys did not mentioned them in the mix😳
De’ grasse is a medal 🏅 poacher
I think Noah is way too fast currently for him to do what he did in Tokyo again.
@@ExileRadio But remember that he has Covid earlier that year or late the previous year so that messed with his training and perhaps overall performance. I really don’t think you can sleep on DeGrasse though man…he’s a fighter to the end
@@wynnetg862 There’s no Doubt that DeGrasse is capable of upping his game on the big occasion. He’s done it a few times before. I just think that since Tokyo Lyles has improved to a point beyond his capabilities. Sure I think DeGrasse could run a 19.5 PB maybe, but Lyles is unbeaten since Tokyo and I expect him to run at least 19.3 or 19.4 in Paris which would be too quick for the Canadian.
1 sherika 2 Tia 3 up for grabs.
Julian and Dina train together. Gabby is with another group.
Donovan, do you have an email address?
Love the Pod cast.🤣🤣
I fear for our UK 100metres men will not make the Olympics games 100 metres final.the women have a better chance
Mens 100m 🥇 Thompson 9.70 🥈 Seville 9.79 🥉 Jacobs 9.81 🎖 Lyles 9.82 (participation medal) Women's 100m 🥇 Jackson 10.65 🥈 Fraser-Pryce 10.70 🥉 Clayton 10.77 🎖 Richardson 10.78 (participation medal)
☝🏾this person is clearly a USA hater 😂
@@TELL843 Yep..he posted literally the exact same nonsense on Gatlin's podcast minutes ago.
🥇 Lyles 9.7 🥈 Thompson 9.7 🥉 Seville 9.8 🥇 Richardson 10.6 🥈 Alfred 10.7 🥉 Jackson 10.7 There you go, and I’m from the UK so not biased for or against the US or Jamaica. Just giving my honest opinion.
@ExileRadio Lyles has been running professionally for 7 years without dropping a 9.7. You WISH he'll hit that. 🤣😂😅
@fredball8240 And Im'ma keep doing it.
All the things Noah said in that interview is not unique to him alone all this is true of Kishane & Oblique as well & remember both as race less than him both are younger & therefore has far more scope for improvement.
Great chemistry between these guys. I had them Donovan Bailey spikes back ‘98. Spikes were so 🔥, I bought 2 of ‘em from Eastbay back in my college track days 😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Noah LIES
Great content. Love the analysis Mr. Bailey.
DB is correct on Bronny and the King....never underestimate the role of inspiration in sports
STOP LYING DONOVAN
I've already said Tebogo has the most potential of any sprinter but NEEDS to hit the gym and put more meat and ox tail on those bones to become a champion‼
Am not ruling out miss Clayton for a medal!!!remember I said it here!!
Athing on a revenge tour! I love it.
Akeem made the team, he came in 3rd.
Donovan I just bought a copy of your book. If you're ever in the UK would love to get it signed.
Levell was 4TH at trials in the 100m.
10.85 into a big wind...
I have Julien Alfred as second favourite in the women’s 100m after Richardson. I will be very surprised if she doesn’t make the podium.
Alfred will be coming home with a couple medals in this Olympic, I really have her getting a silver in 100 and bronze in 200m
Donovan Bailey, please can you put out correct information. Ackeem Blake did make the top 3 he came 3rd place in a time of 9:92. Bryan Levell 4th place in a time of 10:04. Could you please do research before putting out information as all the athletes work hard for there place.
Mistakes happen its not that deep
It's my fault, think I confused him...yes Blake was 3rd, Levell was 4th.
Originally he said Levell was 3rd...
@@Eastsidecrimeit is that deep. This is the second week he is saying that. It also negates the point that Donovan was making about Brian Levelle competing in the 100m Diamond League race this weekend.
"Sydney is in league of her own." Femke running 50.95 only 0.3 slower. Crazy ridiculous Americans. 😂
if you really believe that the gap is 0.3 after we have not seen Sydney run for almost a month, then you are more delusional than I thought🤣🤣🤣--------my question for you is, when Sydney beats Bol badly in Paris, what would your excuse be?? You better start preparing a good one because you know I will be back in August to tell you that "I told you so". I can't wait to see you, rientsdiktsra and a whole host of other Bol simps who refuse to live in the world of reality and believe in this fantasy that Bol is in the same league as Sydney😅😆
Julien only spent 3 years in Jamaica. She was already a great athlete in St. Lucia, hence she finished up her high school years in Jamaica with the help of the Lucian government. We are grateful for Jamaica helping Julien along the way, but don’t take away from those in Lucia who discovered her and helped her all the way to where she is now.
Well said!! As Jamaicans we are very proud of her and some may feel that she’s like a part of our track and field family. But make no mistake we know she’s St. Lucian through and through and proudly so. We are happy for St. Lucia and my fingers are double crossed hoping that she medals. Peace and Blessings
I am happy to see her development through college and what she has accomplished. I have noted however the narrative, coming from St. Lucians, seems to be discounting her time spent in Jamaica and development gained from our high school programme , which is second to none. She got her scholarship to college because of the exposure she got from Jamaica, as college scouts flock to our championships, which is the largest in the world. It is well covered by media houses worldwide and Jamaica's school teams, could represent some countries because of the times our athletes are running in high school. It should be noted that, what started out as individual Jamaican high schools recruiting promising student athletes from our Caribbean Neighbours, has now been formalized by the governments of some Caribbean countries approaching Jamaica's government and athletic association to accept their students in our schools and train them. Ironically, we train them to go back home and try to beat us at regional competitions, such as the Carifta Games. Give credit to those who have helped you and don't appear ungrateful. Jamaica can find world beaters, like a production line, a testament to our system, which sees us beating countries with far more resources than us. It is therefore obvious, Julien's success, is directly related to Jamaica's input because St. Lucia could not have done it if she had stayed at home.
I m happy for her an st Lucia.. However, we would love to see her in the Jamaican colors
Proud of Julien and St. Lucia .She has my support from Jamaica 🇯🇲 She will leave Paris with medals.
@ianwallace4861 Julien Alfred started running from primary school in St. Lucia. She trained at first, with her primary school coach. She then joined an athletic club as there are a few of them in St.Lucia. Whilst at the club she trained with Cuthbert Modeste. She then went on to secondary school, trained for three more years in St.Lucia. She moved over to Jamaica , where her talent as an athlete would further develop. I have heard about Julien Alfred ever since she was at the primary school level in St.Lucia. Julien is naturally talented and St.Lucia has done incredibly well to support her. It is great that she went over to Jamaica for three years. St.Lucia now has two other female athletes that are also beginning their journeys, watched this space.. I am wishing them well. One thing, I could say, Julien Alfred is special and she is from St.Lucia
You meant yohan Blake didn't make the Jamaican final
Yes, think I confused him...Blake was 3rd, Levell 4th.
You meant yohan Blake didn't make the Jamaican final
Didn't even make it out of the heats
Levell was fourth at 100m at trials in the 100
Sir Donovan akeem did make top 3 at trials
Top 3 in 100 and Levell was 4th. Levell was 2nd in 200..
Not sure why he keeps saying Ackerman didn’t make top three. Ackeem doesn’t run the 200m and he is the 3rd qualifier for the 100m. Levelle is 4th.
It's my fault...he corrected it the wrong way.
Channel is growing nice
U guys are hilarious talking about Kishanne and Oblique are favorites when neither has won nothing! The only person who could be a favorite is Marcel who is the defending Olympic champion...Donovan is an hypercrite all of sudden ur a bandwagon jamaican fan...but he represented Canada😆
First of all, going off of times, they are strong favorites. 2) the word is hypocrite and it’s meaning makes no sense here ? 3) Donovan Bailey is Jamaican and even has the accent. Who he represented is something different. Ben Johnson, Linford Christie are not any less Jamaican.
Jamaica HULK,,KISHANE, vs CAPTAIN AMERICA Lyles,,coming soon, in Paris, EARTHQUAKE
Lots of talent Kishane Thomas Oblique Saville Akeem Blake Brian Level Noah Lyle Brian Bederick Fred Kurley Letsi Tobogo Akani Sembini Ferdinan Omanyala Andre Degrassi Marcel Jacobs
Not level but Blake
Wonder lf he realized that when he is shutting down other athletes are coming full speed at him and can clip him on the wire
There will no American sweep in the 100 and 200m
Great reviews like the way yall articulate yourself ill definitely be back 🙌
