@jgault13 Agree.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@jgault13 What meet that’s been on the Global Calendar for 6 weeks targeted? Or do I misunderstand?

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@jgault13 Kinda doesn’t matter. 90%+ of LA fans will be at the Masters Meet, HS regional. On their calendars since birth, LA GP not added to USATF’s calendar & unannounced in… late March?

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@SBJ @RachelAxon April Fool’s prank, no? A “consultant at BS30 Sports”?

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@davidmellyruns @MJGold No. “smh” is lazy clickbait. Zero disrespect for @annaahall at T&FN. Intent: will she rise to hept pantheon? Like JJK or Klüft, 2 highest scores all-time, 4 OG/WC golds each, 6-time #1 Rankers. Angle works in less sensitive sports. Tweet deleted for typo.

@jgault13 Small detail in Kiptum WR, but a correction. Sean Hartnett has reviewed video: “the 4:18 mile was a myth as the 37K and 23M which should be 15 meters apart were 11 seconds apart.”

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@TheRealMerb Are you suggesting this particular “unbundling” is new? WA women’s bib sponsor used to be Toyota, men’s TDK.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@Ohio_Tomato True but the balance on that will change rapidly. Don’t get me wrong, I think the absence of regulation in the sphere will bring a world of hurt. But my first-ever small work use of AI (on a photo) definitely saved time.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@TheRealMerb Apples/oranges, silly. This weekend there was one Super Bowl and by a quick initial count 58 US sub-4 miles (first-timers not yet tallied). No longer rare.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@TheRealMerb Columbia University announced it will cease awarding degrees to milers because there are too many flaws in their analogies. Also, the S4 list is back.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@1999HarleyDyna @jgault13 Off the mark. Of course T&FN still tracks mile records. Apples/oranges to a list of Americans who’ve run under a time in one event. Sub-4 just isn’t as significant as it once was. Should we have a list of 16ft-plus vaulters cuz that was once a big deal?

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@CraigVirgin @Lilot1TrackMind THE qualifying event in MOST events, not all. What other sports fed would leave athletes in the dark this late?

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@Lilot1TrackMind Reminds me of ’90s early days of digital results. SPer Grit Hammer's name "corrected" to "Hammer Throw" in IAAF emails.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@PaulSwangard @RunBlogRun @Diamond_League Then can NBC/Peacock partially fix this for its subscribers and post last 10 mins in the archive?

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@Lilot1TrackMind @nikepreclassic They were up for a while on Saturday.

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@paulmerca70601 @USTFCCCA But why do Anderson and his co-commentators keep saying the first leg of a 4x4 is longer than the others? Their geometry teachers failed! 😣

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@dougslaton Watch the British version if you can!

[Sieg Lindstrom @slideginstorm]

@AbernathyGary @NewsHour @JudyWoodruff Gary, it’s the Democratic Party. Get the pejorative desire to misnomer ending in “rat.” PLEASE drop the “calm the waters” lip service; it’s not your gig.
