xcmiler20 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Yeah, i bet i will. You know, because Sorrell beat Jaynes by a minute. But i guess that doesn't mean he was better. we all know that sorrell's time was better than jaynes' but you also know what the coach meant when he said who the fastest man on that course was.....someday you're gona have to accept the fact that jaynes is better than you'll ever be....no he didnt lead his team to a state title but he did all he could.....i just dont see how all of you are goin to diss on him when he won the whole race....theres absolutley no more that he could have done.

xcmiler20 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Another lie...I watched the race...you won...you did not lead the whole race......grow up, get some humilty...from reading your insipid comments I learned that what I saw was a pitiful loser of a human being cross the line first.....so sad! and actually you must not have watched the whole race jaynes led the entire thing except for about 5 sec. w/ 1200 to go when russel passed him but then jaynes passed him right back and drilled him.....thats the only time in the entire race that jaynes didnt lead.

stealthccrunner3200 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 FRA and Etown have great programs. What has been portrayed on these boards is not what FRA is about and im sure Etown isnt like this either. Whats done is done. We all got what we wanted. Jaynes got his individual goal and FRA got their team title. ITS OVER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecrippler2222 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Probably not, but despite the egos and the trash talk, Jaynes did win the A-AA race and I applaud the accomplishment. And I will defend public education and the Cyclones to the bitter end. public schools arent at any disadvantage. a public school won state last year in track and i think the highest finishing private school was fra in fourth so i dont really see how u can say the private schools have an advantage over us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobo1954 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 in my last post i was congradulateing janes after all the crap he got, i do agree that the team win is more important, but it seemed that he was gettin too much trash, even though he is extreamly arrogant, it doesn't mean that i dont have to act the same way he does by the way, the wind affected the race a lot more than I expected it too, are their any other factors that could have lead to the slow times that resulted? it seemed that the taller runners were hit hardest by the wind, but i still thought that the times could have been faster.

Lobo1954 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 What WERE the actual times? are you shure that your friends had it right? because the times were originally messed up because they started the meet clock too early, that would put all the times equally off, not some more off than others...

thecrippler2222 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 as a runner im gonna have to say the slower times r right. i know i didnt run a great time. it definately did not feel 40 seconds faster or anything. but if it was that would b pretty tight cuz that would almost make it a pr!

flashgordon Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 (edited) and actually you must not have watched the whole race jaynes led the entire thing except for about 5 sec. w/ 1200 to go when russel passed him but then jaynes passed him right back and drilled him.....thats the only time in the entire race that jaynes didnt lead. then I think I am right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When they came by I was standing on the awards poduim and the FRA runner was leading the guy that eventually came in first....I know what I saw....guess you saw it, because even you said he led the race. the guy with the big mouth is the one who said he led the entire race........and it is virtually impossible for anyone to watch the "WHOLE" Race....perhaps you were up in the Steeplechase stands?

tackle Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 (edited) This thread reads more like a Terrell Owen or Dennis Rodman press conference than a cross country discussion. This kind of trash talking and bragging doesn't belong in high school sports. It belongs in professional "wrestlin". I've got a pretty good idea that Coach Presnell would be embarrassed and disappointed by what some Etown people have posted. He has always been a first class guy. I don't know FRA's xxtry coach that well, but I do know that Coach Tucker would be angry if any of his distance runners participated in this trash. Coach Tucker is a humble man who would hate this lack of class. I always thought if you did it on the track (or xxtry course), there was no need to talk about it. I guess that the negative influences of a few loud mouth pro athletes has crossed over into cross country. I always thought distance runners were a higher class bunch of athletes. I guess this proves that there are a few bad apples in even the most honorable of sports. Edited November 7, 2005 by tackle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
