One Love, babee!  2007 is a Championship Year!!!!!  GO ASAFA!

Jesse Owens was one of the greatest sports legends of all time. His 4 gold
medals at the 1936 Berlin Olympics made history -- and shamed the Nazi party and
their repulsive theories of a 'master race'. Despite his achievements at the
Olympics, Owens still struggled with racism at home; "I wasn't invited to shake
hands with Hitler, but I wasn't invited to the White House to shake hands with
the President ,either".

Variety has announced that Milkshake Films (Goal) have signed Anthony Mackie
(Freedomland) to portray Owens in the upcoming biopic Jesse: The True Story of
J.C Owens. A director hasn't been chosen yet to shoot the James L. White (Ray)
script, but Milkshake Films is expected to announce a director soon.

Does anyone here think someone other than Asafa Powell will win next
year?  To me, he's the overwhelming favorite.  Who do you think can
possibly pull off the upset?

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!  WHAT A SEASON!!!

10 sub 10's.....5 sub 9.90's including 2 9.77's (WR)!!!  Undefeated.
Dang, I thought Ato's 1998 season was the goods!!  Non-championships
season, that is.  Asafa is poised to take it all next year.  Count on
it.

He won the Jamaican Championships 200m with his first sub 20
clocking.  Between that and the 9.77 he dropped earlier this year,
Asafa is lookin' to bumrush that WR!!  I'm still waitin' on 9.75!

Hello everyone, I'm Ben, a new member.
                     I'm a rugby player and have started doing  some specific
sprint training 30,60,100m drills, plyometrics, specific power exercises. fast
feet, etc (for the last few months). - along with my intervals and
endurance work.
                    Any training tips would be greatly appreciated! Also, can
anyone recomend a good book. - I'm a Sport and Exercise scientist, so the
more scientific research the book evaluates, the better.

                    HAPPY SPRINTING!

Thanks Conway....I'll be checking in soon.  Too bad about the old
site.  Any word on why it shut down?  Sub 10 was a historical landmark
to me as far as legendary track message boards go.  Looks like its
time to pass the torch to Sprint Zone.

http://s15.invisionfree.com/SprintZone/index.php?showforum=1

The site that was hosting Sprinzone and Sub10 has gone - apparently for
good ... But the Zone has moved and is ready for posting !!!! Please
bookmark the above URL for Sprintzone ... And let the discussions
continue ...

Actually you can't even put Capel or Scoot in the conversation. It is
Gatlin, until Asafa beats him...

Right now Gatlin for the fact he seems to be the only one right now who knows
how to win the big meets which entails bigger contracts more money. So Gatlin

What's up TRUTH!  Let's see some posts!  Who do y'all think is gonna

since Ato called it a career, I'm an ASAFA POWELL FAN PERIOD>

Doctor rules Powell out of individual 100 m

IAAF
Saturday, July 30, 2005



POWELL ... you train with one focus all year and to have that taken
away leaves you feeling empty
Dr Müller-Wohlfhart has ruled world 100-metre record holder Asafa
Powell out of the individual 100 metres at next month's World
Championships in Helsinki, Finland.

Powell, who earlier this year broke the World 100m record in a
blazing time of 9.77 seconds, went down with a groin injury last
Friday night in the 100m final at the Norwich Union Super Grand Prix
at Crystal Palace, London.

Immediately after the injury was sustained, Powell flew to Munich,
Germany, for treatment from homeopathic specialist Dr Müller-
Wohlfhart.

After a series of MRI and ultrasound scans, it was determined that
he had a 2.5cm tear in his adductor longus muscle in the region of
the Bone-Tendon junction. His physiotherapist Mark Young
stated, "the region of tendon that is torn is particularly slow to
heal when compared to a tear in the belly of the muscle".

Dr Müller-Wohlfhart was initially doubtful that Powell would be
ready to run by August 6 (100m heats in Helsinki), and although
treatment has gone well and he is on his way back to health, the
doctor is still ruling out the individual 100m in Helsinki.

Powell's agent Paul Doyle is equally concerned for his possibilities
in Helsinki. "It's the type of situation where if the 100m race was
on at the end of the Championships, we would be very optimistic of
his chances. Every day and every hour counts in healing an injury
like this."

Powell himself was reluctant to comment, but did say that he
was "devastated. You train with one focus all year and to have that
taken away leaves you feeling empty. I hope to be able to run the
relay in Helsinki and help bring a medal back to Jamaica".

He has been marked down to run in the Zurich TDK Golden League on
August 19, and has begun negotiations for many other post-Helsinki
meets, but Doyle said, "Asafa will not step on the track in the
relay or any other meet until we are 100 per cent sure he is healed
and 100 per cent fit. Zurich will be exactly four weeks post-injury,
which should be sufficient time to be ready, but we cannot risk any
further injury. We will make a decision based on how his training is
going as the competitions approach. Asafa needs some time with his
coach Stephen Francis to be back to top form, and for the better
part of six weeks, coach Francis has only been able to do rehab work
with Asafa."

I was trying to delete my post saying Asafa was gonna run a 9.90 in
Rome.  As we know, he didn't run.  As far as him being clean, I
believe it. Innocent until proven guilty.  This sport has suffered
enough because of BALCO.  Why speculate whether our WR Holder is clean
or not?  Haven't you had enough of the drug talk.  I won't let it ruin
my enjoyment of my boy running 9.77.  Suspecting AP only makes you
look like you're hatin'.

June 14, 2005

Capturing the NCAA Division I 400-meter title in record time
apparently helped UCLA's Monique Henderson earn college track and
field female Athlete of the Year honors yesterday.

Henderson, who graduates Sunday, edged Texas' Marshevet Hooker,
Tennessee's Tianna Madison and USC's Virginia Powell after voting by
1,000 member schools as part of the Collegiate Women Sports Awards
program, now in its 29th year.


"It's a huge honor," said the Morse High graduate. "I know Jackie
Joyner-Kersee won it previously, and I was a little surprised
because all the other finalists were multi-event athletes at the
NCAAs."

Although she ran just one event, Henderson set an NCAA meet record,
winning the 400 by more than seven-tenths of a second in a school
record and personal best 50.10 seconds Saturday in Sacramento.

Although Henderson limited herself to that single event, her first
individual NCAA title, all season she ran the 200 and 400 as well as
both relay events for the Bruins.

"I'm sure they take the whole year into consideration," said
Henderson, who will compete in the U.S. National Championships
starting June 23 in Carson in hopes of qualifying for the World
Championships the first week of August in Helsinki, Finland.

She also is in the running for the NCAA female Athlete of the Year
honors which will be announced June 29.

Hi Guys, I've been MIA for EVER!

Prime, I remember you picked Asafa from day 1 after Ato announced his
retirement. Great scouting!

What did I tell y'all!!!  AP is NO JOKE!!
