Nov 19, 2008 - webb just didn't look like he wanted to be there. You can't always wait till the last 100 meters. Whether people like or not Leo manzano is the real thing. He still doesn't get the respect he deserves. Did anybody see what a weak handshake Lagat gave him.

Nov 19, 2008 - (Leo Manzano) Mexican Pre! Manzano made look too easy, I'll be surprised if he doesn't medal in the Olympics.

Nov 19, 2008 - too bad for webb. maybe next time.

Nov 19, 2008 - Lopez is in there?!
sslider08 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - webb is a freaking looser
crwnikeboy Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - i'd bet alot of money he doesn't make the finals. and i'm a manzano fan. he's good,and has alot of potential,but he's not olympic medallist good.
crwnikeboy Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - he isn't the real thing. lagat is a much better runner.

Nov 19, 2008 - What the hell happened to Alan Webb? American mile record holder. 3:30 1500m PR. He ran like 11 seconds worst. Hell his 800m PR would have took him to Beijing (1:43). Last year he owned. What the hell happened? He was Americas best middle distance runner. This was his year. What a shame.
lfil28 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - I was expecting it to be Lagat, Webb, and Manzano.
finnetmoi Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - weak handshake? the man's exhausted for crying out loud! lagat is AWESOME! manzano ran a very smart race to come in second. in his comment, "what better man to stick with" he credits lagat being the target he needed to follow to make the team.said ahmed's push through jennings and lagat was a bad move...i feel badly for webb. what happened to him? maybe he was physically and mentally exhausted?
mandobizar Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - you might be right about the handshake. As far as Alan Webb, that's why they call him Mr Inconsistent. Thing just started going down hill after last years world champs. I was hoping he would qualify but....
townsendTUBE Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - people should be appreciative enough that he even stuck his hand out to shake manzano! because i know right after i run a race i am exhausted and my only concern is getting air haha
cubuff5000 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - A kid who runs 3:55 for the mile when he's a senoir in high school is not a loser. And yes Lagat is a great runner, but he's also failed a B urine sample and when the A test was sampled the people giving the test "lost" it. How do you think the man can kick like that...
devilboy2013 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - lagats A sample was mishandled and his B sample was clear so get your facts straight before u leave dumb comments
stoppre75 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - All of his best times are with pacemakers. When it is time for trials, World Championships, and Olympics it is all about tactics and thinking, not following rabbits around. That is what makes middle and long distance more intriguing than sprints.

Nov 19, 2008 - well damn when i used to be an athelete, i used to run 1 mile in 5 min and change. these guys are definitely top notch performers.

Nov 19, 2008 - Lumong is awesome. He deserved to be the flag holder for the US
LocoGaryot Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - WHAT WAS WRONG WITH WEBB? He could have run a much better race... I'm so bummed that he didn't qualify...i was hoping to see him run in beijing
roma11n Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - didnt webb run a 3:30 in the last 1500 that he raced in?im sure it was an outdoor race in paris.
room302 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - damn webb didn't make it...
