1) Bad preparation.

2) Exception to the general rule.

[Godfather]

I think I am done!

I've been hoping since Los Angeles '84 and till now still the same $@#% or gone worse than ever.

100m and just one contender - blessing, kai naija down and out

[Tbite]

Based on the times that they can put out....All 3 athletes would have qualified.

So this isn't a case...of them not being good enough....or that the CHinese are now faster etc.

I think they just were not prepared...and they had poor technique.

Look at this Photo Finish



At this point the Nigeria has the Automatic Qualifier in sight, but look at the superior technique of the others around him...their hands behind their torso, their legs stretched behind them.

Nigerians are not slower than they were 10-14-20 years ago, if anything they are just as fast,,,,I think the preparedness though at the world stage lets them down. Just look at the National Records....Fasuba has the National Record....Blessing Okgabare will break the national record.....this isn't a case of ....ohhh look the Japanese are now faster...Let us not be stupid in our assertions

[Godfather]

Fat shout outs to Naija olympians of the past who actually did it ....Mary Onyali, Innocent Egbunike, Rotimi Peters, Moses Ugbusien, Sunday Uti ,Oluyemi Kayode, Olapade Adeniken, Davidson Ezinwa, Chidi Imoh, Osmond Ezinwa , David Izonritei, Richard Igbineghu, Beatrice Utondu, Faith Idehen, Christy Opara Thompson, Chioma Ajunwa , Falilat Ogunkoya, Bisi Afolabi, Fatima Yusuf , Charity Opara , Duncan Dokiwari, The dream teams of 96 and 08, Chika Chukwumerije, Blessing and the ones I did not remember.

You are trying too hard! I am sure these other countries were running slower(sic) 10-14-20 years ago.

[kolinzo]

Our games mirror the state of Naija. But not to worry, Ondo State is coming to the rescue by bringing back the glory days, if ACN no ruin am for us of course.

due to the training , not the gene pool as clearly shown, only way gene play a role is individually through inheritance from parents not based on some racial theory.
