Not necessarily....
I live in London, and the BBC are only really interested in their own athletes. The only reason Bolt vs Blake gets a mention is because of who Bolt is.

What ever it is needs to be fixed before London because we want that world record . I mean egos have to be pushed aside to get the best out of the team meaning sherone will run a straight since she is not good at curves and Veronica should run a curve .
Yes. Veronica tried to have Shelly removed from the '08 Olympic 100m and replaced with herself.
Really? VCB tried to have Shelly removed in Beijing! This is ludicrous. Where was this published? Wasn't it the Jamaican ppl that create a major havoc citing VCB should run. I just need that black and white as to where she tried lmao!!!

Jeter will peak in London...
Ahhhh...you seem to be thinking that S-AF-P has peaked; that Jeter is the only one that will peak in London.
Okay, understood.
"Jeter is not even close to the favorite in London. Shelly is now the heavy favorite"
Now please explain such a jaded, Nationalistically blind comment.
Btw, saying that Ms. Jeter will peak in London has nothing to do with SAFP, Madison, VCB, Felix...
1. I have no reason to explain a comment I did not make. Better you quote and ask the individual that made the comment in the first place. 2. You stated "Jeter will peak in London" as if it happens in a vacuum.

Don't believe this has ever happened in the USA before.
Well, with two track clubs competing (and everyone else unattached), it was only a matter of time...
As an aside, some of those unattached used to be 'attached'....
What's happening there?
Many of the "unattached" listings are incorrect. It's as if the research wasn't done properly or someone was just plain lazy.
And, there were more than two track clubs represented.
YES but it seems like only Athletes of that 2 club are progressing ex: k Bailey-Cole becomes a 10.0 sprinter probably the nith sub ten jamaican ..i am happy for that but let not forget D.Lee was wayyyyyyyyyy better than him till last year!!!!! my question is : Are others clubs serious on the preparation of their athletes ??? i mean Lee and O.Bailey should be the one that are running 10.0 by now!!!!!!! in 200m Weir become a sub 20 guy ...ok!!!! but what about Dwyer he won the 200m universidad last year the a personal best of 20.2x last but this year he is in regression that absurd...i bet if he was racers or mvp he will be running 19.xx by now!!!!! the list go on and on .......
is that so difference amongs racers , Mvp vs others????

I'm sure that the other clubs are just as serious about athlete preparation as MVP and Racers, but it may be a simple matter of a lack of resources that prevents them from keeping pace. I can't state definitely but I will presume that the other clubs have a difficult time garnering funding etc. A full complement of coaching staff may also be an issue.
