  1. To be clear - she stopped short of the line after an huge throw. While staring at it she deiced to do a bunny hop which went over the line.
  2. No kidding. Total brain cramp. Almost like a swimming relay person jumping into the pool after swimming with the race still going on. Situational awareness
  3. I saw someone add that you can say what you want on the stream feed. No FCC looking over shoulder. This opens more possibilities in future
  4. And US men follow them. Crap... That was some really bad handoffs
  5. About 30 years ago a diver (maybe Russian?) was killed after hitting head on platform. That platform is insanely high. Before all sorts of legal restrictions we would go to Point Mallard which was nearby and they had a platform. No way you didn;t go off it after climbing up there in front of your friends. For no apparent reason none of us ruptured a spleen or liver hitting the water. You also quickly learned to grab your crotch.
  6. Everything about relays makes me nervous. Our track record (pun intended) is a hot mess. Just really glad the official in the mixed medley told the runner to get in the handoff zone since they were just walking around everywhere.
  7. Is this the first event with a repechage? I don't remember it before and it's pretty cool. Gives a second chance if you mess up
  8. and based on the mixed 4x400 relay it will be really nice if we don't try to wander out of the exchange zone either
  9. Saw somewhere that NBC said all medals awarded 24 hours later. Not sure why. Guessing they don't do that for the last day
  10. No kidding. What in the world was she thinking? It was like she heard the starter call it off except he didn't. And yeah - the hold times before the gun seen really long.
  11. Not to go old school but that was not close to what we ran. I ran distance and every Tuesday was 25 ( yep twenty five) quarter miles at race pace with a 220 jog (not a walk) between them. We had the number one high school miler in the USA and the number 1 or 2 two miler so those were run at just over 60 seconds. Our workouts for the quarter milers were equally intense.
  12. No kidding. That almost never happens
  13. I think it's probably the 1600. Makes it a lot easier to set up then subtracting 100 meters.
  14. Not just swimming for Rowdy. here is a video of him at home during the Kick Six from Auburn/ Alabama ten years ago. I think I remember posting it on the old website and commenting that sprinters live on their nerves for life. As an fyi he went to Auburn which explains his reaction.
  15. And subtract reaction time from NFL combine times. At combine the clock starts when the runner does
  16. WOW - Why was I thinking they didn't time past hundreds of a second? I think in swimming they call it a tie since they feel they can't get the distance totally exact between lanes.
  17. Just tossing this out. With all the electronics in these - the old rules of whether it clicks or not may not apply. grab a volt meter and see what the battery says. Low voltage from the battery can cause a world or weird symptoms in newer cars. On a 2019 it is probably time to replace it anyway.
  18. saw that. Interesting that the official pointed it out. How in the world did she not know where to line up? One job there. Not her first relay. She was wandering all over the place
  19. The Berkoff Blastoff. One of his kids is in this version of Olympics. Similar to Fosbury Flop in that he came up with a new and unique way to do the event. Unlike the Flop they quickly banned it
  20. A few quick pictures from this week. Heaters were pretty simple back then - it actually was an option. Nothing like the British making sure you were freezing. Again no comments on the different shades of blue depending on light Also as an fyi - the engine shot show the fusebox for the entire car. it's that really small thing behind the heater - quantity of (2)
  21. Just a quick reference to the popular "one point safety"
  22. Back to the failure emails but glad I got to go this year
  23. When I was in Austin I drove mine up to Rolex in Dallas. Saved any future mess with shipping
  24. And success - no thanks to Microsoft. I restored the laptop back to the factory image - how it showed up. Same issue. as an fyi I was adding the accounts via the control panel - Mail. I deleted all Office and started again. By luck when I opened Outlook it asked to add an account and this worked. I then noticed an option in Outlook itself. File-Add account. Guess what - that works also. Adding via the Mail option in Control Panel still adds as either POP or IMAP. Bunch of goofballs at Microsoft wrote instructions to say just add the account but never said not to add it in Control Panel. Grrrrrr. Now I have to figure out how to only have a single directory for backup. It looks like the new method creates ost files while POP creates pst.
  25. Isn't the server at Microsoft since the email is at outlook.com? I am not running an email server. Just trying to configure my outlook email on the PC to use their new requirements. The email uses outlook.com as the server so I am assuming they have configured the new method since they told me to change to it.
