Kamel steals championship from veterans - from Universal Sports

[soggysausage]

all of the Americans weren't born there lol

[4241600m]

I got flamed like hell on flotrack the other day for suggesting that it was possible that a world record could have been produced the other day with Kamel and Kiprop racing in the mile at the Prefontaine Classic on Saturday. Show me some love here?

[M3anDAD]

@4241600m they'd have to have the race of their lives. No one has come close to el guerrouj's times except himself

[intalhia]

@M3anDAD lagat has run a 1500m only .34 seconds slower than el g. and el g's world record race in the mile's second place finisher was a few milliseconds off as well.

[saucy05]

LOL @ the commentator not knowing kamel's name.

[pavelkostov]

except he is from kenya, bahrain has never done shit in athletics except cheat

[whh8]

[CTrotter21]

[467076]

[fai9allica]

[Dav3]

[minnielarz]

lmao

[steezylagat]

what the hell? kamel is kenyan 4 god's sake

[HouseofJello]

@steezylagat So is Lagat... what exactly is your point?

[steezylagat]

@HouseofJello no hard feelings, I have personally talked with asbel and kamel

[HouseofJello]

@steezylagat I'm just confused with what you mean by that comment... I just don't understand what exactly you're trying to say?

[gregsk2012]

Yusuf Saad Kamel of BRUNEI???

pretty sure its BAHRAIN sportsnetwork :|

[asmilesa]

The three-letter country code for Bahrain is BRN, which probably looked more like Brunei to the commentator.

It's sometimes amazing the inexperience of commentators -- anyone commentating a 1500m race should know that Kamel is from Bahrain.

[invizaman7]

woohoo!

[tehgymnast7]

wow
