Pisses me off.  Where is TXhsfootball at.  We have some talking to do about the Jamaicans and their population of 4 million making the final without the great one.

Well they supposedly had 3 of the 4 fastest times in the world this year at one point.  Plus thier best threat got banned from the Olympics....sooo...yeeeah.

This wasn't really embarrassing. Dropping the baton all those times, that was embarrassing.

In this race we just got outrun, period.

Meh. Sloppy baton passing. Really sloppy. 
 

Gonna be tough to overtake china in the gold metal count when your favorites can’t shine in the big moment.

That's the embarrassing part.   The anchor got blown away in an embarrassing finish.   Missing the finals by .02 secs is totally on Gillespie.  2:19 to the finish...  brutal anchor by a USA sprinter.   With the recent 4x100 history, not sure why Gillespie was chosen of all available sprinters to finish the race.

@nptb17 Oblique Seville (dig the name) is only 20 years old, who ran the anchor for Jamaica in the qualifying.
