      Sickko, I couldn’t help compiling this list after watching my tape of Darvis Patton in the 100-meter race on Sunday, in particular his attitude at the start (and comparing this with his attitude at the starting line last year).

              Gamma, under normal circumstances (that is, in my every day life) I don’t lie. Making up facts is the same as lying, boss. Plus, what would be the sense of doing something so stupid, as the consistencies I listed above can be easily researched. In my case, I depended, as usual, on my dependable videotapes .

              Can you, in your position as moderator, please delete the thread I started below, “Photos: Enjoy, My People!” There is nothing in my post as I couldn’t get the photos to show. Thanks in advance.

                      I suppose we could say to him, "it's time...."!

                        Shericka Williams!

                        Thanks very much, Karl. I appreciate it.

                        Here’s another excellent (and most welcome) addition to my list of “Most Consistent Sprinters”:

                        Shericka Williams
                        2008: 400-meter silver medalist (Olympic Games, Beijing)
                        2009: 400-meter silver medalist (IAAF World Championships, Berlin)

                        I am so proud of Shericka! After Lorraine Graham-Fenton retired a few years back, I was a bit down as I didn’t immediately see anyone who I felt would adequately take her place. For a short while I pinned my hopes on Novlene Williams, but look who has emerged as the next Lorraine!! Little could I have guessed a few years back that this small, slim girl “Wire Wire” would have turned out to be the next great Jamaican quarter-miler!!

                        Much respect, Shericka, and also to your exceptional coach Stephen Francis!

                          Franno told us this years ago, back when he posted at the Carib forum.
