Please let keep Letsile Tebego in our prayers. His mother passed away over the weekend.😢😢😢

I feel like Elaine this year is gonna show her experience and talent. She's hungry to win because of how her last season had gone. IM HERE FOR IT!
she is opening her season VERY LATE....not good
@@fin2-em2mf I mean I get that, but I mean that's what makes it so exciting and intriguing. We truly don't know how she's doing. It could be positive or negative but we know she a fighter fs
@@fin2-em2mf the Jamaican stars often don't do much of anything until Jamaican championships. Elaine looked potentially scary at the end of last year. They're all over 30 this year, so they may be dedicated to fitness over competition this year. They all have a ton of experience. They're not gonna underperform if they're in good shape.
Agree that she is very hungry and she wants to get back on to the podium at the Olympics> Lets see how things play out, especially with her 100m opener this weekend in Eugene!
@@TheFinalLeg is she opening up this weekend?
I'm so excited for the Jamaican trials. It's about to be lit!!!
Jamaican women haven’t missed the podium in the 100 or 200 since the 1980s
That’s crazy.
It is wild. Last time was 1988!
shelly will ALWAYS make the podium
she's being slept on the most when looking at early predictions
It’s crazy , it’s like they don’t actually pay attention . She ran on a bad knee last year and ran 10.77
@@MrMine12345678910.77 with super spikes and after saving every single bit of herself for that final to the point she didn’t even have enough left to run the relay without injuring herself again. Her age and injuries need to be taken very seriously. I do not expect much from Shelly, and you know what (?), it’s fine…Shelly has done her part already.
She is the go-to big-time performer for sure! One of my favorite athletes in the sport so always looking to see her on the podium even as her Olympic career comes to an end!
Shelly for the bronze at best unless She magically shows up in 10.6 shape this year
There's no way to accurately predict what will happen because there are so many variables. My sentimental favorite is Shelly. I would love to see the Queen go out with any medal. The gold would be a fitting end to a stellar career. Great commentary bro!
This is shellyann last Olympics and she is going to throw out everything to be on the podium. Go shellyann jamaica and the world is rooting for you 👍
Jamaican here The Final Leg and I always look forward to ur commentary because ur are unbiased n I respect that. U, Justin and Rae’s Take are the few US track and field channels I listen to. Thank you too for your depth of knowledge and research u put into these videos 👍👍

@@TheFinalLegI think Brianna lyston will be the dark horse this Olympics
@@user-dx5mg9by9y So your saying Elaine, Shelly or Shericka wont make the team? or are you saying Brianna will be the dark horse at the Olympic trials to make the team over one of those 3?
@@TheFinalLeg Yep,one of them won't .After our national trial,Brianna will be the conversation.
To me, what seems to be happening with the sprints particularly, but also some of the other events is the athletes have seen the crazy improvements that everybody has been making over the past few seasons and they know that Olympic year usually brings out even better performances and they feel under a lot of pressure to get the absolute best out of themselves. As a result, they are staying in very heavy training cycles further into the season than they usually would in the hope that they can see the benefits at the Olympics. If that is accurate then the few races that some have competed in, they wouldn't have expected to be fast, they won't be race sharp and their bodies will be tired from the training. I assume they have only competed to get some idea of how soon they need to transition away from the heavier training. My only concern is if any athlete doesn't give themselves enough time to get properly race ready before their respective nationals, although obviously that's more of an issue for US athletes based on their selection process.
I think it makes complete sense that the athletes that are running fast are the school/college athletes, who won't have this Olympic training mentality and people like Letsile, Noah and Sydney. In the case of Noah and Sydney, they won't be as concerned about their ability to perform at a high enough standard, because Sydney is unbeaten in the 400mH for years and Noah is unbeaten in the 200m for years and has seen evidence of the weakest part of his race improving during the indoor season. I think where Letsile is concerned, he is just more relaxed about the whole process and doesn't expect too much of himself. It is a great advantage in some ways that he so young and this is his first Olympics and it seems like he has no expectations and is looking forward to the experience more than the results. That's not to say he wouldn't want to win, just that he will be putting less pressure on himself.
Fully agree with your analysis. True, our second tier of ladies hasn't properly transitioned as yet. Lyston seems to be doing so better than the rest, notwithstanding injury concerns. You are spot on bro.
Briana Lyston is a beast!! The girls coming behind Lyston however are INSANELY fast - Sabrina Dockery, Shanoya Douglas and Theianna Lee Terrelonge - the world aint seen nothing yet !!
Appreciate you bro! And yea I think the next tier of Jamaican ladies can very likely be medalists and consistently on the podium in years to come, but right now, I think it is still all about shelly, elaine and shericka as the top women
The lighting and picture aesthetic in the video is quite good
Of those Jamaican sprinters in the second tier, I believe that Lyston will be the one to emerge as world beater.
She was certainly looking good at SECs but it's hard to maintain that performance through August. I'm beginning to think that the NCAA really does a number on some athletes. Abby Steiner and Britton Wilson are still recovering.
Agree that she is the most likely to make an impact. But thinking about this year, are you saying that Lyston will be ready to medal at the Olympic Games in August?
@@TheFinalLeg I dont think that she will reach her full potential for maybe another 2 years, but she has a good shot of making the relay team
I see a injury free lyston as the deal breaker
Brianna is still a child, what world beater you talking about… 10.91 pb cannot do no damage, unless those big three not big threeing at all. Brianna won’t even see Paris
Anybody questioning their fitness level knows nothing about athletics. If you have followed them, they don't open so early early. Shelly Ann is older, she has to train with caution. I can bet they will still shock the world with their performances. I won't be surprised if they sweep the 100metres. Elaine is an Olympic baby, she will show up this Olympics.
A Jamaica sweep is a thing of the past. Only Shericka will medal in the 100 along with Sha'Carri and either Julian Alfred or Aleia Hobb.
@@madman1rugAll of the Jamaican big 3 PB is faster than Shacarri
@brobro6783 what does a pb have to do with anything? They aren't running PBS every race

This might be subjective, but Shericka looked to me above her normal, competitive weight in the Marrakesh Diamond League. If this is indeed the case, it might be very significant, as loosing weight is best done much earlier in the season, since caloric deficit during the season itself increases the risk of tendons and ligament injuries (and guys, please note that I'm not bashing the lovely Shericka for her looks, but simply discussing an ultra important aspect of competitive track and field, i. e., an athlete's optimal weight).
That’s the thing. People say it’s all part of the plan by the process of “loading.”
What people don’t realize with this process of loading is that at shericka’s current size, to lose the weight from loading it will take extra work than it normally would in other seasons when she was not loading.
With the extra training to peak in time for the Olympics, comes with added risks when you have to drastically reduce your caloric intake while increasing your training regiment.
If done with no issues loading is great. But sometimes the risks outweigh the benefits.
And it seems Shacarri is doing the same loading process. It would be her first time doing this and to me that is a risk that should be reserved for a year that isn’t an Olympic year. But if it works she and her coach will be looking like a genius.
how much earlier in the season can the weight loss happen? The season just started! Some athletes normally "dry up" for the season, but it happens at different times depending on your anatomy and physiology.
@@kc5466 "extra training to peak in time for the Olympics" has already been done. The work has been done. Nobody increases their training regimens in the summer as they are trying to peak. Peaking is, in almost all cases, is tapering, and tapering is reducing the loads, not increasing them.
@@Meechooilka An athlete's weight should be optimal and stable when the early competitions begin. Starting to compete with some extra weight is very risky, and the process of loosing weight is an added risk.
@@kc5466 Exactly, and let's add the fact that competing with some extra weight is very taxing on the body, and super risky for the integrity of the tendons.
Good analysis. Looking forward to the Olympic sprint relays on the women’s side (men’s too, but this video focuses on the women).
These ladies r now 30 plus years old. They will train differently,will listen to their bodies more carefully. Competition will be tight all around. Excited to watch women’s sprints
No worries about the Big 3 being ready. It's an Olympic year so I don't think it's odd or concerning to see them running fewer races and being careful not to over train. I see Shericka with the 200 gold. Elaine, if she can stay uninjured, is my pick for the 100. The rest of the medals will be spread out between Shelly, Sha'carri , Ta Lou-Smith and Asher-Smith. But you are spot on about the rest of the competition. The talent of sprinters around the world right now is almost mind boggling. It is possible that we could see a huge shake up at the Olympics....but I hope not 🤣 . I need to see my favorites basking in glory at least one more time.
You naming too many people. 100 will be between Elaine, Shericka, Sha'carri with Ashford and Shelly Ann in contention. In 200 Shericka. Elaine, and Gabby. Abby and Sha'carri if Elaine is not up to par.
The disrespect yall have for shelly the best to ever do it lol pathetic
Hahaha yea, on a personal level, I would love to see Shelly win gold at her final Olympics since she has been around forever. It will be tough, but would love to see it.
Agree right now that Shericka is still the 200m favorite. And TBD on Elaine to see what kind of form she is in this year.
This dude talking about Shelly-Ann Fraser like she's just a "contender". Typical clueless American.
I agree with you here! I love Shelly-Ann & her retiring is bittersweet! I would love her to medal but as an American would love for Sha’carri to take gold 😊 Jamaica will be on that podium for sure!
Fair and balanced assessment of where our women sprinters are at this time.
Appreciate you!
Great assessment. One of the smartest I’ve heard!
On point as usual my brother. I think you meant to write 2020 Olympics not 2021. The Jamaican women have been the most consistent in their domination in the sprints for a long long time and it has been very impressive. Shericka is a guarantee win at 200m and guarantee medalist in the 100. Not sure about anyone else though. Shelly Ann is getting up there in age as this should be her last Olympics but you can't count her out because she is who she is, the best woman sprinter in the modern era. The balance of power will shift back to the USA as these things happen in Track and Field.
Always appreciate you bro! I wrote 2021 since that is the actual year the Olympics occurred. But yes it was the "2020 Olympics". I agree for the most part that Shericka is by far the most likely medalist and I still have her as my pick for gold. But I think if Shelly and Elaine make the team, they will likely be on pace to get on the podium for sure. But just sure what order and who else from around the world will make it as well!
It's funny how you pick the weakest of three to medal in the 100 and not the dominant ones. SMH.
To be fair, the Jamaican women has had a podium appearance in every Olympics games since LA 1984, to the exception of Seoul 1988.
Yes correct, but I started at 2008 because Shelly is still actively running and that was the first time they swept the podium, and they first time they won 100m gold. They have won every 100m gold since 2008.
Sherica,shellion,elaine ,shacari and ta lou are my picks for the 100 elaine my favorite but ppl never you forgot shelly she a warrior knows how to win
You 3 bringing home the gold for jamaica
I think you’re correct. the Jamaicans ladies they are not the same like that once was so you’re all correct but they just have to tip it up because how the woman from other country are really really good. I know Jamaicans always shine on Olympic but also women from other countries, the USA the UK are stepping up, so Jamaica have to step up for the Olympic so you’re commentary about the Jamaican woman I agree with you
Yea, I do think they will step it up to be ready by trials and by the Olympics. They are all very experienced and know when to run fast wen it matters most. So well see how the next few weeks pan out, but there is a lot of competition from around the world!
Very reasonable assessment. I can't disagree with you in any way. I am quite curious about our team this season. 🇯🇲 Kudos to your platform. Spot on.
Totally agree with your commentary. Looking forward to the prefontaine classics 100M W in Eugene today May 25.
Big three of the world not just Jamaica
Great video. I too share your concerns regarding the future state of the next generation of female athletes coming through. I think Shericka is going to have hold down the mantle for the next two years until they develop. Regarding the big three I am going to wait until the trials to cast judgement.
Elaine will open Saturday at the Pre Classics
The new Jamaican girls; the two briannas, the Clayton twins, they are coming up strong and I'm loving it.
The girls in the next group behind those girls are also INSANELY fast - Shanoya Douglas, Sabrina Dockery and Theianna Lee Terrelonge - mind blowing how fast that group is
the only lady that can replace the 3 ladies is brianna lyston....the clayton twins and alana reid are overrated , atleast for now...
@@fin2-em2mfeven lyston is overrated… they are all overrated, I cant be the only one seeing this…
This might be the last Olympics for ETH and SFP. So I understand them being cautious so they can show for the big occasion.
It is the last for only Shelly
@@damelia6250 think about it ETH will be 36 in 2028
Jamaican coaching method is different from the US and other countries. So I am not worried about who is not at 10.60 or 10.70s apart from the big 3. Time is going to tell.
You are so right
Its Jamaica 123... This is Shelly's last race.. i know she is coming prepared to leave it all on the tracks.. don't worry about them..prayers up for them❤❤❤ Jamaica to the world 🌎
Elaine, and Shelly Anne… they’ve done their time!!!! Hahaha regardless of results… I’m just floored they’ve had the longevity at the caliber they’ve been performing at for quite some time now!
Shericka is just finessing… she hasn’t “peaked” as an athlete in my opinion.. and I think we’re on the bounds of some (more) greatness!
I’m just real excited for all the competition this year!! Women’s track and field is just getting crazier and crazier!
Agree that the longevity is absolutely insane! Shelly has medaled every time since 2008! Thats dominance for sure!
@@TheFinalLegright and back to back gold
I think you're analytics is fair and am a Jamaican you're right
Really appreciate that!
No he is not right all the way he is right about some thing and I don’t think he is right about Shelly
Speaking all facts 👍🏽
No he is not
Edit: After seeing the way Sha'carri just dominated Elaine Thompson Herah in the 100m at the Pre-Classic in Eugene on May 25, I no longer have the Jamaicans as favorites. With the 100 out of reach for Team Jamaica, I'm not sure that they'll win gold this Olympics at any athletics event. Their best chance is the 200 but with Sydney McClaughlin's run at the event, I still favor the Americans over the Jamaicans.
Depending on what kind of day US sprinter Sha'carri is having, the 100 is no longer a guarantee for the Jamaicans but I still have them as the favorites. The 200 is far from guaranteed with the times that Sydney McClaughlin is putting up. Also, the American women are favored in the relays so Paris may be the toughest Olympics yet for Team Jamaica as the US women have an overall stronger team. That and the fact that the Jamaican team is getting old and these things inevitably happen. Right now the momentum has shifted to the Americans but may shift back to the Jamaicans in the near future. The Jamaican men, however, are no longer competitive so the burden in Paris will be on the women,
Even if the Big 3 don't do as well as we hope - The girls coming behind them are talented and insanely fast ..Briana Lyston, Krystal Sloley are ones you already know about but the girls YOUNGER than them - Sabrina Dockery, Shanoya Douglas and Terrianne Lee Terrelonge- already these youngsters are making an impression as juniors !!
A lot of up and coming rising talent from Jamaica for sure!
@@TheFinalLeg I think the BIG 3 are going to do very well in Paris. They will probably do better than the men if we are being honest. They are the favorites for the 100m and 200m and the relay ALONG with the sprinters from the USA. The reason why i mentioned the younger girls is people saying that the Big 3 is ALL that's left from Jamaica and there's no talent after them but there most certainly is. For the men - the Junior 400m sprinters from Jamaica are absolute FIRE. I'm more excited for them than the 100m male sprinters.
@@travelwithsereyou are right
The Olympic medals are not handed out in MAY ....their handlers are very careful and not driven by diamond league success. Contracts are renegotiated after the olympics. They will be in good shape come Jamaican trials and will be at their very best come PARIS. Shelly, Elaine and Jacko are in experienced hands and will turn up when it matters the most. Diamond League events are training to work out what is needed to make the most import 10 seconds count in Paris.
Up and coming JAMAICAN STARS ...

Future is Golden!
Correct, no medals are given out right now. But just analyzing what is currently going on in the sport. I agree that they will likely be ready for trials and hopefully paris later this summer!.
And thanks for that strong list of up and commers. Will be a strong group of ladies to watch in the future!
It should be the ones with the most medals plus who got the fastest times. 💯
I agree with you but really looking forward to Elaine making her debut
Don't worry about Shelly..... many haters said same in 2021....n many said she can't break 10.7 but she did....so Shelly is Shelly..... can prove all wrong again who saying she can't
Not sure many said that in 2021. That year she was arguably the favorite entering the Olympics as she had already run 10.63 seconds and won both the 100m and 200m at the Jamaican trials.
@@TheFinalLeg exactly before she clocked 10.63 in the velocity fest.... many said
@@TheFinalLegshe also ran 1060
@@dibyanshunag8685right they were saying shelly is done and she is too old just like they are doing now
The difference? Jamacia has been hanging on to the Womens Big 3 for a long time (08-present). including the Men.
the world has been grooming their Jr's imparticularly--USA ( 2015-Present) And the results are starting to show. You can add Great Britain, France, Italy, Japan, Poland, The Netherlands, The Bahamas, Bostwana into that mix as well. Jamaica may have relied on the elder runner's a bit too long..... Just a bit.
good video
Jamaican women not opening their season when it is almost june is insane!
Remember this name “Slowly” she gonna be a surprise weapon for Stephen Francis , she came second behind Marie Jose Talou at the Jamaica Invitational
From 1992 Jamaica has had at least 1 medallist in the 100m and 200m
I think ET Herah is taking it doing what she's doing to avoid injury and be ready for Paris. Not worried about Shericka Jackson at all. Not worried about SAFP. These are veterans of the game. Lookout for Brianna Lyston and Alana Reid as possible relay team members. If they can wet their feet in this Olymplcs,look out. I am a big TT Terry fan, but I'm not expecting much from her this year. Maybe she will peak at the right time for the Olympics.
It will be hard to keep Jamaican women off the podium for sure. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Absolutely. The Jamaican women have been so dominant for a reason. Impossible to write them off for potential podium spots in Paris yet!
@TheFinalLeg It's gonna be very exciting because I know the big three are going for gold and there are Shakarri and other talented women doing the same. Paris is about to be lit!!!!

8 consecutive Olympics Jamaica has medaled in this race!
yup! 2008 represented the start of this current era though because it was the first Gold and the first sweep, shelly is still competing now, and they have won every gold since then. So essentially still in that era right now.
I think u missed Daryll Neita in the other contenders list...I think she can be a problem for that final.
@@kevynhenry1580 Nope didnt miss her, there are a bunch of women who can be contenders. I actually recently did an entire video on Daryll Neita and why she is a medal threat. Check it out on my channel!

Practice baton exchange.. America is passing smoothly now but we are kinda slowing up
You are right
Olympic relay line up.. Natasha Morrison..Elaine. sherica.. Shelly... Gold
Veronica won bronze and gold in 2004 Olys.
correct, I started from 2008 because that was the first 100m gold for Jamaican women and the first time they swept the podium. Since then they have won every 100m Olympic gold and shelly is still competing. So that was the start of the dominance in this era I was looking at.
@@TheFinalLeg I hear you, but from a Jamaican perspective, it started in in 2004, with 2 golds and a bronze in sprinting.

We saw her and she didn't do well
@@nyawoods4343 that’s basically what he said

ETH will be at Pre so we shall find out her fitness level. Shericka will be fine. Shelly no comment
Shelly will do fine this year she an injury problem last year. She will medal she had improved her top end speed last year. I dont understand why you are concerned about her. I see her practicing, and she is doing great.
Ms. Double Double will be Ms. Triple Triple
The only 1
Shelly is healthy and running pretty good so I wouldn't be concerned about her.
Lets hope so! Have you been able to see her training! I do believe she will be ready for the trials next month though
@@TheFinalLegshe will also make the podium and possible win gold
Out of the 3, Shericka Jackson is the only one I confidently believe will be on the Olympic podium based on how she's performed the last 3 years.
Shericka's consistency alongside her improvements suggest to me she can improve once again in her 100m & 200m, especially getting closer to the WR times of Florence Griffith Joyner. The only thing that can prevent that if it's the weather or injuries.
Elaine & Shelly's route on the podium will be dependent on their health and hitting peak form. This Olympic season is completely different from 2016 & 2021, especially with how people are running currently rn, and with the likes of Julen, Sha'carri, Gabby, Dina, Daryll, Marie Josee and others in the mix, it will not be as easy for those 3 Jamaican women to all be on the podium.
Someone like Sha'carri & Julen who's improving will be a major contender to remove Elaine's top position as Olympic Champion.
I’m not sold on Julien being an Olympic champion yet. A medal yes…but dethroning Elaine as Olympic champion is reserved for basically the other 2 Jamaican legends, Shacarri, and Talou being the dark horse.
I think Jackson will double Gold
@@kc5466 Whether you're sold or not on the idea, it's all about who runs the fastest on the day, not who it should be reserved to beat Elaine. Julen becoming 60m World Champion has built her status way higher from last year and she's a contender to medal and become Olympic Champion. Same goes for Sha'carri and others.
@@MaliduDilchin-tr9yj Possiblity but it depends on how the rest of the field is and how prepared they are.
@@TheWayWithKhuwayne Julien becoming 60m champion may have built her status higher but not her chances for gold.
Considering the last 60m champion to win a global title that same year was in 1993 on the female side. So being a 60m champion is not saying much unfortunately.
And her 60m time of 6.94 at the NCAA last year was more impressive than the 6.98 she ran at the championships this year.
So I agree she’s a contender to medal but gold is a harder sell.
I believe they can beat the 4 by 100 world record.
With Shelly starting, Elaine secon, lyston third and sherica anchoring I see it challenging the world record
Any other girl with the big3 I don't see it happening 😅
Lyston will be the extra magic they need 🎉
No they can't! They can't even beat these young US teams
New 4x100m worl record, NOW or NEVER 2024 Paris Olympics 💚💛❤️🖤💯🔥

They could, but it will be tough considering in 2008, 2021 and 2022 they had the talent and personal to do it, but handoffs messed them up a bit unfortunately.
So what do you say now that Elaine was dead last? Do we worry now?
I still don’t think we should worry yet it was Elaine’s first race

Crystal Sloley will need to run a lot faster to keep the big three off the Jamaican Olympic team but more likely she can qualify for the relay team.
Maybe if she changes her surname to "Quickly" she'll have a chance
A rising star for sure, but likely in a few years she will have a bigger breakout considering she only recently ran 11.09. But I'll be watching her progression!
178 miles long x 58 wide. Thats the size of Ja Nothing else to say
There’s a new girl on the block in the way of Krystal Sloley who is most impressive of the young troop coming up!
Yup! She will be one to watch in the future years for sure!
Our program is different lol we will transition as we always have. when the other two is ready to go the next wave is ready havent u learn
Excited to see how things pan out for sure!
Too early to call
Brianna Lyston if she is healthy will get a spot in the flat event
Brianna Lyston
She is very much on the rise and could be next up as the next great Jamaican sprinter
Of course…I feel Shericka will definitely be on the Podium one way or another; although she is very slow and overweight right now, I am sure the Francis Brothers know what they’re doing. Elaine and Shelly are extremely unpredictable at the moment…I just cannot imagine Shelly will be fast this year. Elaine without those Nike shoes is questionable…I just don’t know whether it was the shoes that took her to that next level, or if that was really her, because 2022 she still looked equally strong, but was much slower. The only sure shot for me is Shericka, and if Elaine and Shelly aren’t on their game, Lyston and Natasha may slip up in there.
Excellent video!
Shelly didn't get Bronze last year sir, she won her 5th world championship.
😕❓
😅😂
Shelly did get bronze this would have been her six world championship hundred meter gold if she won
Since 2004 you should have started.
I started at 2008 because that was the first time Jamaica won gold in the 100m dash, they swept the podium, and Shelly is still actively competing, and jamaica has won every 100m gold since then. So essentially that represented the start of a new era of sorts that we are actively still living through
Shacari only ran 10.6 one time
The Americans are in a worst state….there’s only 1 10:65 runner, no 10:70s and perhaps a few 10:80s and none are consistent! Even ShaCarri got a flyer in Budapest, so much so I doubt she’ll make the podium! Experience is the key here!
Experience is overrated.
And the Americans are not in a worst state.
The only woman I see to take over is Brianna Lystan.
Elaine came last in Eugene. Is she ok…as she looks way off (getting too old?)…I do hope not!
Shelly the GOAT is past her best unfortunately
Sherika looked (heavy) in her last race…
I don’t think Shelly passed her best
Big 3 is old. That’s the problem.
The only one who is questionable is Elaine.
Shelley too. If her knee can hold up she can medal. But age is a factor
@@mssha1980I don’t think age is a factor Shelly was winning but wasn’t running 10.60 when she was younger
@@karenmartin2457 that was 2 years ago. 37 is not 34/35
Dude just shut up we don’t care about any international opinion on Jamaican sprinters, no one in Jamaica has any questions, we don’t question our sprinters, Jamaica is the sprinters Mecca. You really think our dominance started in 08, the others were definitely doping now the playing field is even.
"We don't care about international opinions on Jamaican sprinters"
*Proceeds to watch and comment on my video sharing my opinion on Jamaican sprinters*
Appreciate your feedback and thanks for watching 😉
@scottdave7006 Your statement did not age well @ all in the last 48hrs❗️ Stop with the 🧢 ..specifically the “we don’t question our sprinters” ..JA’s own Mav has over 48k views with plenty of questions sprinkled in. 👀Slide over there with this rudeness. The Final Leg gave a fair & unbiased assessment.
This is the most bias and nefarious analysis I've ever heard....''Mr Commentator's breakdown is somewhat illogical and lacking in merit. Let's see how Paris 100m women unfolds because the one who crosses the finish line first will be the champion...albeit the favorite.
I think you comprehended it with bias he keep it honest but people don’t like honest
