AHHHHHH THIS YEAR IS SO GOOD
Ingy: 3:43, 7:54, 12:48, more strength than anyone but cant kick them down, only hold them off. He used to dominate because no one could go with him, but that era is over. Can he hold on?
Kerr: 3:29, 8:00, Good kick, not the best, but better than anyone with more strength than him, has beat Nuguse and Ingy head to head, beat a 26:33 guy. Has made a level up this offseason. Does he have the strength to go with both the 3:43 guys now?
Nuguse: 3:43, 13:02, Has the strength to go all the way with Ingy, in a slow race out kickers him, has beat Kerr head to head. has he leveled up to beat Ingy this year? His progression so far has been insane. if he keep at it he gets the mile and maybe wr easy.
Nordas, Cheruiyot, Myers, nameless Kenyans, etc: wild cards, very many could get 3rd if positioning is good
Beamish, Hocker, etc: not as great strength, but crazy ability to kick if its slow
Re Jakob´s (inferior?) kick:
It's hilarious how people here hate Jakob so much that they have to pretend that a world champion gold is more significant than the Olympic gold

Poor sad little pathetic Jakob fan boys living in the past. Kerr won their most recent matchup, he’s undefeated this year, and he’s broken a world record and added another gold medal to his collection this year. Jakob has done nothing this year.
Your name is kerrific. Not a fanboy? He's just saying Jakob has won oly and kerr hasn't. If he does I wont be surprised cause he's crazy good right now. But you don't need to be mean to people because they said something that is true.

The thread title says Jakob is "insulted by any comparison with Kerr". Only a supreme egotist and his blind fans would take that view. Kerr and Wightman have shown they were both the better athlete on the day in the most important races since the last Olympic final. They are more than worthy rivals and should be respected as such. But that isn't in his nature - or that of his fans.
Well, despite me being a Jakob fan I agree in your post here, and a lot of your other sayings in this thread…
But I wouldn’t be a real funny fellow without the following addition: Guess who sides with you in a lot of your points in this thread? Answer: Jakob!!
In interviews post his last WC loss (I haven’t double checked the exact date or his exact wordings -I’ve sort of got a little over dose of the guy..) Jakob said that these two WC losses really bothered him, and that it didn’t really helped with the Oly gold or the two 5000m wins. So he pretty much confirmed (in advance) your sayings about the importance of lacking 1500m WC gold! And he even added that he would much prefer to win WC than Olympics -felt that the frequency with only two years in between the WC’s tells the more of an athlete’s real capacity…
Don’t know if you like his support for your views, Armstronglivs -but funny it is…
