Answer 1

Interesting.

I did not follow the track events as closely as I would have like to.

What was the bases for the disqualifications?

I glad to see that another medal was add to the US medal count.

But this was not a very good performance for ounationalal and international leveathleteses. USATF needs to make some big changes with the Olympic games in the states fir 2012 in Chicago.    

Answer 2

Yes, ALL the Jamaicans should be very proud of themselves!!

Answer 3

Your point is?

There are lots of races each year. The Olympics are only one track meet in a season.

Some people can win most of the time and some might even win every race in one season.

Because the results in a meet after the Olympics does not mean anything other than the results were the same.

As you mentioned Crawford was awarded second place because Martina and Spearmon ran on the  line and were disqualified. Crawford does not have Marinta's medal and Dix does not have Spearmon's medal.

You have to complete the race within the rules to win a medal, they did not.
