[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Wow - white boy wins 400m Gold

Posted: 8/23/2004 3:59:55 PM EDT

yeah-yeah... I know.

But come on now - it's so obvious that all the greatest sprinters in the world are black, but I was suprised to see this kid take the 400m.

Wariner Leads U.S. Sweep of 400m

Jeremy Wariner (search) picked up where Michael Johnson (search) left off as he became the sixth straight American to win an Olympic 400-meter title and led a U.S. sweep of the medals.

Wariner, 20, finished in 44.00 seconds — a personal best and fastest in the world this year. He crossed the finish line with his arms extended in victory, followed by silver medalist Otis Harris (search) (44.16) and bronze medalist Derrick Brew (search) (44.42).

The United States has dominated the event since 1984, winning 13 of the 18 medals in the last six Olympics. Americans also swept at the 1988 Seoul Games.

The three Americans hugged in the finish area, then began a slow victory lap with three U.S. flags.

"It means a lot. We all thought we could go out there and go 1-2-3. We did our best, we fought hard, and we all came out on top," Wariner said, showing no sign of emotion. "It hasn't sunk in yet."

Wariner has been tabbed the successor to Johnson, who ruled the 400 for more than a decade, still holds the world record of 43.18 and won gold medals in the 1996 and 2000 games. Wariner even has Johnson's old coach, Clyde Hart of Baylor.

Way to go Yankees!!!

Looks like the US won all 3 places.

You know, in the original Greek olympics 2nd place was no better than being dead in a ditch. PC olympics these days...
