Now that's what I'm talking about!! The U.S. track team finally showed us what we like to see. They pulled off two impressive wins in the 4x400 races on Sunday. The women, who many thought would struggle competing against Russia in the final, SMOKED the competition! Every lady seemed to run her best, as we held a lead all throughout the race. Allyson Felix gave the team a wide margin, but Sanya Richards made the gap even wider on the last leg of the race. It was truly no contest! On the mens side, they were favored to win, so it was looking like it would be more of the same, until Angelo Taylor started the race for the team. Dude ran like he had just scarfed two double cheeseburger and wanted to take a post lunch nap. I was expecting him to zoom out and gives us an expected lead, but NO! By the time he got back to pass the baton, we were in THIRD place. I sighed, thinking, we had been visited by the schleprock again, but Jeremy Warner saved the day! He caught up and gave us our signature gap that we were expecting. He ended up running the fastest time in the race! All in all, we eneded up wiining more gold medals than Jamaica Ha Ha! So, I'm not happy, but I'm thrilled. Congrats ladies and gents!
