No one gives and credibility to Mr. Hill. he did a wonderful throw to make the Olympics team.
-
Great to see the new guys get in. I wish Clarke would've made it.
It would be shocking to see Crouser throw 22m in Rio, Kovacs still has to be the US medal favorite. -
I think Hoffa is done, Nelson is done, Cantwell is done.
