Leo looked happy enough after the race. good sportsmanship going up to birnbaum with a smile after being shushed 😂
If the twins do respond well, what do the other two do? Walk back their trash talk, pretend it never happened, or double down? Some people will probably say it was all just a joke but when it’s incessant, unprompted, not reciprocated, and likely is meant to and does get under the skin, is it really?
Im mainly talking about connor “won’t be any competition” burns who despite the lack of competition finished 4th. When he comes 112th in cross and oregon comes in 14th, will he still be talking?
I mean, I've always known all of us distance runners were beta AF and this just adds to the evidence.
Some trash talking is fun and healthy. It makes for great rivalries. Nearly all sports have trash talk on some level.
Larry Bird talked so much $hit and he lost plenty of games. Do you think he cares?
And somehow you dufusus wonder why this sport isn't popular. Oh, no's guys. The kids are saying they're going to beat each other before the race. OMG. These kids are horrible people.
you americans are weirdly obsessed with the 4 min mile. you do realize 3.39 1500 or 13.34 5000 are way better performances right?
It’s a magical number for us man. You weren’t there when sub 4 meant you were one of the best guys in the nation pro or college.
Yes, in days past. I was a big 4 minute mile guy, but it looks like going forward there will be about 4 HIGH SCHOOLERS breaking 4 every year, many of whom will not amount to anything on the national circuit, so it is going to lose a lot of its luster. When the list was short enough that many people could recite it off the top of their head it really meant something, but we will soon be past that point. Too bad, because having a nice, easy to understand, yet incredible achievement is a good thing for the sport. It is a bad side effect of the super shoes (not the only factor, but you gotta open your eyes and see the truth). For me, I pretty much ignore times now and pay attention to placing, and that aspect of Birnbaum's season was truly remarkable, in any year, with any shoes.
