Getting faster at 25??

I was actually thinking earlier you would be a great investment for a sponsor. If you carry on the way things are then there will be a lot of media interest. Hmmm a few 30 sec TV ads or taking a punt on Drob? :confused: I know which Iā€™d do. :wink:

You were on that show?! Oh I gotta see this!

just watched pros vs joes, i think you did great against angle, especially right out of the start. it actually looked like you were the aggresive one at first, almost taking him down.
anybody on that show has balls.

AC

Hah, who came up with the wrestling Angle in the pouring rain! At least your adductors are still in tact:)

Ya, I think you were the only one to take his back, hah, good work.

iā€™m watching right now!!!

Damn, Angle was intense. I liked how he walked out in the very beginning talking sh*t and gettin in peopleā€™s faces lol.

Still held your own I thought though! Mustā€™ve been cool to do that show.

Any chance of posting it on youtube???

DROB your making us sprinters look bad. Slow down a bit ok?

Darn I wanted to see that episode with DROB wrastling. Someone please post a video.

Thanks.

If drob was in lane 6, heā€™d have won without question due to the advantage of starting from higher on the bend. This isproven over and over,and, based on entry time, he should have had that lane. Great running from L4.

6.76q in prelims. Everyone and their mother ran between 6.70 and 6.78. Finals include him, j-mee, and spearmon. The link to the prelim results went down after about 1min so I didnā€™t capture it.

Was wondering what had happened to Gerald Phiri. He ran 6.69 at 16 I think, back in the UKā€¦ Heā€™s got joint Zambian, UK, US citizenship. He competed for GB as a junior, looks like heā€™s taking advantage of his US citizenship now.

Congrats Drob, keep it up!

When did Gerald represent GB??

I was under the impression he competed at the European Juniors but it seems he didnā€™t obtain a passport. If thats true then maybe thats another factor that pushed him to Texas.

I donā€™t think heā€™s ever represented GB. He represented England at the British schools I remember. He posts on here, so I guess you could ask him why he went out there! I guess the facilities, coaching and a free education are a tempting offer!
