    I sort of wish diving toward the finish line wasn't legal in sprinting. Allyson had that race and Miller didn't have the closing speed. I don't know how she feels about it, but that moment would nag me for a looooong time.

    Allyson knows the rules. She could have chosen to dive too. If she has anything to regret it's that she didn't dive

    Even a purist knows to take advantage of the rules. There are no rules to break for making a roux. Wasn't it Ricky Bobby who said "If you ain't rubbin' you ain't racin'?"
    Or maybe it was Dale Earnhardt or Darrell Waltrip. What I'm saying is that leaning toward the finish line is a common and accepted practice in foot racing. Maybe Allyson would do better if she had bigger boobs.

    That Bahamian Bish didn't just lean.....she was gonna lose so she threw herself across the line. It's cool. I get it.....she knew she was gonna be a loser so she went for it within the rules.

    Allyson's boobs wouldn't have won the race. But her legs were gonna.

    i never knew diving was effective except in boxing OR that its where the torso crosses the line til that race. I figured it was like sliding at first base. But ill be damned if she didnt beat her because of it and the fact shes so gd long. i dont think it woulda worked for an avg sized person or a shorter one.

    yeah shes cute but she definitely needs bigger boobs. win/win

    Dam, so she literally DOVE across the line. I thought vball was referring to a hard lean at the tape. There should absolutely be no diving. It's a foot race.

    You might want to mention that to Duck Prandini who did the exact same thing at the trials to deny Felix a 3rd place spot in qualifying for the Olympics. And then Prandini didn't win shit.
