Can you imagine if the USA had the same system as Europe or China?
Some think the US does, and better, with the college system.

What is all the bullshit I'm hearing about college coaches not allowed at meets now?
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here.
What are you referring to? -
Gerhard Mayer? 4th in the world with new national record....
not sure if that will help him though in a stadium
The Austrian is on the small side. I do love his technique.

How do you find all these?

New pan am record?
who had the previous one? -
according to the great result database tilastopoja David Storl won 10/14 encounters between kovacs and him.
The last time Storl lost to kovacs, excluding eugene, was back in 2011.... -
Hey Angus,
what kind of training plans etc are you doing on that website?
do you have a link to show? -
Yeah good call on your side @Loneranger....
He is in an incredible shape.. -
It seems that Jason Dadz Morgan is "new" being 2015 leader so far...
Do you really considering him as someone getting a medal in Beijing? Competing against the big guys he did not throw further that 62m so far.

How do you guys follow the upcoming World Championships?
Any advice? -
Name of the Thrower: Vitezslav Vesely
Discipline: Javelin
Month's best performance: 87.97m
Rationale for the suggestions: Despite the fact that Keshorn won the DL meeting in Lausanne and had that monster throw I think Vesely should also be considered.
He had thrown so many times during that competition so far. Keshorn did throw only one valid one, one fould and skipped the remaining four.
So i think Vesely is way more consistent -
If that would be the case the WR would not "Only" be 74m..
"You measure from where the discus rolls to, right?"
-
My athletes back then used to say:
"I can't wait for it to rain. Makes throwing much more fun!"
(not really :P)
-
Let's see how many of those comments/sentences we can get together.
I bet there are a whole bunch of them
"Wow, throwing is so easy!"
-
How far is that? I dont know that on top of my head
-
opposite sides of the field in opposite directions
pretty precisee info
Thanks! -
Isn't it better if the squad is rather small?
So you could focus more on each athlete. -
the coach should try to bring hem at least closer to their goals and potentials
But if the goals are not achieveable, and I believe that's what Florian is trying to say the coach should talk to the athletes and maybe stop them from wasting their time
-
I like if throwers are strong.
In my opinion not the maximum weight is the most important part but rather how fast can those athletes move the bars etc. -
First I must say I think its great that Hoffa gets a chance to compete at his age again at the WC.
But we should not forget Christian Cantwell in that perspective!If he can get the shot right he will be able to throw beoynd 22m as well, dont you think?
