Yes. I Have noticed this for a while. "Their" favorite person will run a good lane and the unfavorable usually doesn't. I always said that the race should always be in a "straight" lane. 🤷🏾♀️
Its insane, I think a lot of people noticed this. After the 100 they legit just mentioned Kerley won bronze before going to commercials, and now with the 200 they interviewed the sick bronze winner and did not interview or even talk about Kenny
Oh I see what color you are no wonder you're trying to get in this conversation trying to stir up more division huh that's what your kind are experts at😂😂😂😂
If you let the man talk all that shit and you just sit back and look like a zombie who do you think they’re going to favor Joe Frazier did not let Ali do this to him. Everyone knows who Joe Frasier is from the era of Ali because he talk shit back to him
I agree totally with Kenny. This 'favourite child' syndrome hardly ends well. Noah is a work in progress and the sports media needs to stop gassing him and his ego up
Yes Noah is talented but so are a lot of other athletes, a little HUMILITY goes a long way. NL is looking a little foolish. I don’t like him after seeing his ridiculous displays. If you’re really the best, then just win.
He hadn’t lost a 200m race for three years straight leading up to the Olympics.. if the issue is him “just winning” he had been doing that until that semi final. So Lyles has been backing up his nonsense displays until he failed to break 20secs in his semi and then ran a POOR (by his standard) 19.70 in the final. And people want to say something wasn’t wrong with him? I don’t particularly like lyles, but the man clearly had something wrong with him. He may not have beaten Tebogo even if he was healthy, but that performance from lyles was ass and there was a reason. Everyone else other than Tebogo needs to face a healthy lyles and beat him, then they too can say whatever they want, as he was doing whilst he was unbeaten
@@mattys6106naa, they should not say whatever they want; that is exactly the problem. Just continue to do well and people would organically love you for that. All that theatrics from Noah just makes the game less fun.
@ToniaAlex13 they'll do it to Americans too. The hate I got this Olympics from not supporting Noah is fascinating. A real" if you don't like the USA get out" type attitude.
Im glad y'all starting to realize how noah lies is always favored for nothing This Olympics was the worst, since they gave hime a script (the COVID card) to defend his defeat 😂
Then he should have whip the person who took the gold from him too then since he thinks he is better than Lyles. When Lyles breathing support started to go out on him He was already ahead of the two a them check the race. Non the less Noah Lyles is American all the way. He runs any lane he is placed in exceptionally with no complaints. He works equally hard as any of them do to get where he is today. The sportsmanship he brings is off the chain and it comes with no toxicity thats the difference. He is greatly loved not only by his American family but by others all over the world. Yes, we all know that he might talk smack, but he stands by it, too. Clearly, right when his breath started failing, you could see him clearly way ahead of them, and then he started to slow down to bronze. They all need to stop this nonsense to bring down great sportsmanship or else they will never shine as long as they keep up that toxic mess. If your efforts don't work this time then get up and work a lot harder. Give people the props they're due no matter what. That's why he got silver because his heart isn't right toward his own country man. Obviously Noah Lyles, he runs to win and doesn't treat other fellow athletes with such disdainful attitude. They should practice being nice. But no one can hide that ugliness of their heart for long it will come out at some point. At least Noah doesn't come to the podium with his face in the fifth gear looking like he just had a terrible fight with his deceased ancesters. And the whole truth and point is he wasn't physically fit to take the gold in those two race just like Noah wasn't healthy enough to persevere to the gold in the 200 mtrs. He barely made it in the hundred you can see that Noah was affected by that virus from he did the preliminary he was sluggish the energy that he brings wasn't there and the truth came out. But non the less he is an awesome athlete that cannot be taken lightly hands down. All that nonsense talk will just get shut down and be woefully disgraced that's how good of athlete we have in Noah Lyles and he will break and set new records next. He has a beautiful and good heart he doesn't hold grudges.
Kenny spoke the truth and he still beat Lyles despite favouritism. Tebogo was the one to watch the kid is a monster and has the stamina to beat Lyles in the 200metres having broken the 300 metres world record. But everyone overlooked Tebogo by focusing on Lyles’s jive talking about his greatness and plans to usurp Usain Bolt as the best ever. If you haven’t done it since 2018 then you’re never going to do it. Tebogo is the one most likely to achieve that feat if it ever happens because like bolt he is very naturally talented, he has a running gene which means he doesn’t have to train too hard or buff himself up to run fast. It’s just a natural god-given talent and you can see it in his development which mirrors that of Usain Bolt both as a prolific youth prodigy and the way he’s gradually eased into the senior level. like bolt Tebogo made his mistakes and has now worked his way up to the top. As a very natural speedster Tebogo will be very difficult to beat in future as he develops his skills and I think he will dominate the 200 metres in a record breaking manner over the next couple of years. This is just the beginning. He is in the same league as McLoughlin and Bolt. These are people who are very naturally talented and gifted runners, they have speed written into their DNA and built into their legs. This boy already knew he had the natural ability and you could see that he had a lot left in the tank after his races. Losing your mother is the worst thing that can happen to any young man since your mother is the most likely to believe in you more than anyone else regardless of how bad you are. Your father would scold you or be disappointed or ashamed of you for losing and for making him lose the bragging rights before friends and family, but your mother would always comfort and protect you and reassure you that your time will come. She will always believe that her son is the best thing since God created Adam and believe that one day he will win. That’s how fundamental it is to building a male child’s ego into manhood, so Tebogo’s loss of his mom is significant, it could have either cost him the race or spurred him on to win it in her honour and he did the latter which is the best thing he could have done in her memory and a sign that the guy is resilient. I have seen him win and lose races and he isn’t egoistic as he knows he has the natural speed and talent to win. He won’t be unassailable and dominant like Usain Bolt but he certainly has the ability to break Bolt’s 200 metres record.
If he let Noah catch him from behind, he wasn’t ready to be champion they did all that talking about how fast kishane was, and he got caught from behind🤦🏾 slop can

Kenny let’s talk about that 4x100 relay you cause US instead of being worried about favoritism …. Be Forreal… Noah would have never made that mistake and that’s why he’s favored. 🤷🏾♂️
So true we had a discussion about the lane assignments for athletes who qualified with Q. I was wondering if the rule had changed. It happened in the 400m men also where an athlete with a Q got lane 9. Thanks for highlighting it
That didn't work on Tebogo now did it? What about Bednarek? Bednarek's full health should be considered too if Lyles excuse of sickness is to be considered.
As an American they got beat plain and simple. In Lyles defense there had already been chatter a few days before that he he was sick because of the way he finished the semis and then the mask wearing, given everyone knows he has severe asthma and was fearing it may have been Covid. But still to Tebogo's credit he ran that race wire to wire. I just hope they don't find anything in his system when they test them because there is chatter online he may have gone the Usain Bolt route. Great race though.
Kenny talks too much, that's why he messed up after this. Keep your cool and just run the race no need for exposures. You got a silver, and he got a bronze. Silence is golden, too much media talk about this man and people keep losing their focus and the task ahead after criticizing him. Keep your cool and don't be distracted by his confidence, he needs that because of his mental health. He also brings in the crowd, that's what the sponsors want. Leave him alone, focus on you. Look what happened to all those who criticized him they ended up losing or second best. Let him do his thing, you do you, it's a sport. The motto is don't be distraced, don't lose your focus. Silence is golden, just run your race.
Not only that, but I believe that U.S. sports media did the same thing to Bednarek. Rarely any posts on social media congratulating Kenny's silver. All the coverage was on Lyles' claimed COVID and his antics. Bednarek should be getting more accolads.
The same ppl in charge of lane assignments are the same ppl who gave Lies the gold medal over Thompson, the same people who denied Shacarri and Shelleyann entry, the same people who named James MVP over Curry.the same ones who took Kipeyon's silver and had to give it back .I'm glad Kenny called them out because when any other countries do .they say we r jealous..... Kenny you are an awesome athlete. I'm so glad you won that silver.

@@Justcycee1 the humble track athlete really shoot themselves in the foot. I LOVE THIS SPORT. But I ran it and coached it for casuals you need something for them to watch, a storyline to follow, a hero, a villain, an underdog etc. these types of storylines is what makes basketball and other team sports so great sometimes. Yankees -Red Sox rivalry, Celtics- lakers, etc. while we ain’t gotta be rude or necessarily throw shade at each other a little bravado is necessary otherwise im bored as hell. Tyson gay was Boring, Gatlin was exciting, Despite Tyson having better PR’s there are far more fans of Justin. More people KNOW OF Justin somewhat Ain’t nobody in America really knows who Tyson gay is and it’s DUMB and SAD
1:17 you don't know what you're talking about... it's not "just like lanes 1&2..." the disadvantage of the inside lanes is...and this is no secret, is that the turn is tighter and that almost universally affects runners times negatively.
Respect Kenny. Happy that u have highlighted this bias. It is something that I have watched played out with JCAN athletes for a while now. Clayton was treated the same way u were also.
Aren't their lane placements in the finals decided by their times in the heats and not by their placements? Just because you win your semifinal doesn't mean you have a better time than second or third in the other semifinals.
I know Lyles is a good target at the moment but Ogando lost his semi to Kenny and still got a better lane than Kenny. I'm willing to put this one on the French incompetence rather than the French corruption.
Exactly where was covid when he was jumping around like a mad person doing crazy semi backflips? 🥱 guess he got it after 19 seconds of biting the dust🥴😷
I'm not disagreeing with Bednarek. I'm a fan of him AND Noah. Sometimes, as athletes, you have to out perform your circumstances. ShaCarri did it at the world championships. Won from lane 9. Again, not disagreeing with my man Kenny. Just making a point.
I get where Kenny is coming from; but at the same time, if he had not wasted so much time/energy on this, he might’ve grabbed gold. An easy fix for this is to order everyone based on finishing time in the semi’s, and then let the runner’s pick their own lane for the finals; best semi-time gets first choice, 2nd best gets second choice, etc.
@@runwithyaz I said “might”. I don’t think you know what “cognitive dissonance” means because it is not applicable here. I like Kenny, I was rooting for him and Noah, and since Noah was sick I wish Kenny would’ve grabbed gold, and maybe he would’ve with greater focus/preparation, that is all I am saying; there is no need to be so condescending.
Kenny Kenny Kenny my brother Lyles is the face of the LA Olympics and the sponsors wanted a double double from this Olympics to take into the next one. That is why the 100m title was stolen and given to Lyles by virtue of a rule that shouldn't be used in the finals to separate times. Noah was also given a weaker 100m semis. to help him preserve Energy while his rival's semi's was STACKED This is how the game is played at this level my man. America desperately wants to move beyond Bolt being the last to double.
I think Kenny is jealous of Noah, thus attracting his perceived favoritism of Noah over himself. If he changes his attitude, the mysterious "favoritism" will vanish.
💁🏾♀️MY TAKE: Its always been a CHEATING SYSTEM. Take a look at the placements of Gabby thomas. Infact, take a look at The Championship " Allyson Felix ". Her last few races were very suspicious. Its almost like they got bored with her knowing it was her last race. Even one team mate kinda disrespected her in one of the mixed relay. During the ending interview the interviewer asked how they felt on their win. Nevertheless, Allyson Felix always expressed her emotions with the understanding that there is "A face" that one shares with the fans and "A face" for ones team mates and that is called professionalism. PROFESSIONALISM AT ALL TIMES. When you get home with your FAMILY, this is when you can WILD OUT.
So when he said that man ain't winning was he talking about Kenny Bednarek? Someone enlighten me please because I would really want to know which man he is talking? 😅
Yes thought that the idea was to seed based on qualifying times in order to get a technical V when coming to the finish. Especially for semis and finals. I can understand luck of the draw for heats and single run races. It was also wrong that the introductions weren't done in qualifying order, but in order of who they thought should win. At least in the swimming it was done properly by qualifying time.
Noah has covid and should not have been allowed to compete. Noah has a big ego, nothing wrong with that,you have to have confidence but the cockyness never looks good.
I kept saying that he seemed to be the "does it all" "works a lot" yet does not get the equivalent treatment. For what he has consistently performed and put in , he has not received the same treatment. Even with the run you could see his performance was not unstable or even dependent on something but a stable strength and ability. Shame he does not get the same chances.
SILENCE IS GOLDEN---Kenny's MOUTH TRIPPED HIM as ALL LIPS CONVICT YOU--NOAH has PSYCH ALL you small people that Understands NOT the PSYCH of MAN--BE Stupid and WHINE instead of Laughing and SAYING-------------- WE"LL SEE OH/YEA WE WILL SEE
"IF " Noah's the fastest man in the world, how come I COULDN'T SEE CLEARLY that he was FIRST to the FINISH line, unlike Bolt, Tebogo, Holloway, Sydney, Gabby....
Tebogo and bednarek are beautiful....never really pay attention to their face before. Thats the thing about black people...when they beautiful,they really beautiful. When they are ugly,well....hi noah!
I’m so proud of you, and am ecstatic on your silver medal! That center lane, let EVERYONE CLEARLY SEE that you were ahead of Noah! In the end, it didn’t keep you from shining! It reminded me of the race when Sha’carri was in lane 9 for the 100, and snuck up on Sherika, and Shelley Ann, taking the gold! Gonna continue to celebrate you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I agree. The game is rigged. If only they had a chance, they could have stolen this one, but it was clear as daylight. No 0.0005 secs to get a chance to steal.
Actually its lane 6, 7, and 8 that are the most preferred lanes in a 200m now. Lane 4 is no longer desirable because you still have to run a tight curve in lane 4.
Kenny was pretty much ignored after winning silver. He deserves better. Congratulations on a great race!
I agree with Kenny I kept noticing this the other day. Bless up Kenny you still beat him
Yes. I Have noticed this for a while.
"Their" favorite person will run a good lane and the unfavorable usually doesn't. I always said that the race should always be in a "straight" lane. 🤷🏾♀️

Same to Julian Alfred.
Same thing they did to Jamaica's Kishane Thompson !!
I thought kishane was in a middle lane and isnt that a good thing?
@@Mel-mr8gg no lane could help Kishane when they built the Olympics around lyles ( wanna be Bolt ) , so they changed the Medal rules to get the outcome that they wanted, for the commercial appeal. Then it came crashing down.
@@ericpkingston1327what rules did they change?
@@en7422 To separate runners if there is a tie in the finals, they should use 100th of a second Not 1000th of a second, and they even went further to 5000th of a second, so they broke their own rules
@@en7422 hundredths of a seconds decide medals , Not thousandth. A tie is a tie ! Thousands decides qualifying ...for a tie breaker only . Can't make up the rules after the race. Now he is hiding/ducking from Kishane for the rest of his career.
Kenny is my dude. I think Noah's animated ways and hype made for better entertainment and that's what tv is made of. Even though he's a cocky dude.
SPEAK UP AND MAKE YOURSELF MARKETABLE THEN 👏 THE SPORT NEEDS NOAH TO DO IT WAKE UP
You made a point, i literally don't know why some people fail to see it from this angle. Without Lyles it's gonna be boring AF.
@@Justcycee1 the humble track athlete really shoot themselves in the foot. I LOVE THIS SPORT. But I ran it and coached it for casuals you need something for them to watch, a storyline to follow, a hero, a villain, an underdog etc. these types of storylines is what makes basketball and other team sports so great sometimes. Yankees -Red Sox rivalry, Celtics- lakers, etc. while we ain’t gotta be rude or necessarily throw shade at each other a little bravado is necessary otherwise im bored as hell. Tyson gay was Boring, Gatlin was exciting, Despite Tyson having better PR’s there are far more fans of Justin. More people KNOW OF Justin somewhat Ain’t nobody in America really knows who Tyson gay is and it’s DUMB and SAD
Dont they place lanes based on time. And was t kyles in the outside lane in the 100?
Surely there is a defined procedure to place runners in the lanes? It can't be subjective.
1:17 you don't know what you're talking about... it's not "just like lanes 1&2..." the disadvantage of the inside lanes is...and this is no secret, is that the turn is tighter and that almost universally affects runners times negatively.
Respect Kenny. Happy that u have highlighted this bias. It is something that I have watched played out with JCAN athletes for a while now. Clayton was treated the same way u were also.
Aren't their lane placements in the finals decided by their times in the heats and not by their placements? Just because you win your semifinal doesn't mean you have a better time than second or third in the other semifinals.
Kenny look like Dez Bryant
he is right. Nike sponsors is the problem . . . .
I know Lyles is a good target at the moment but Ogando lost his semi to Kenny and still got a better lane than Kenny. I'm willing to put this one on the French incompetence rather than the French corruption.
Why compete if you’re under the weather ,if only to make an excuse after the fact if you lose?
Exactly where was covid when he was jumping around like a mad person doing crazy semi backflips? 🥱 guess he got it after 19 seconds of biting the dust🥴😷
I'm not disagreeing with Bednarek. I'm a fan of him AND Noah. Sometimes, as athletes, you have to out perform your circumstances. ShaCarri did it at the world championships. Won from lane 9. Again, not disagreeing with my man Kenny. Just making a point.
Let's hear his analysis on the relay....
I get where Kenny is coming from; but at the same time, if he had not wasted so much time/energy on this, he might’ve grabbed gold. An easy fix for this is to order everyone based on finishing time in the semi’s, and then let the runner’s pick their own lane for the finals; best semi-time gets first choice, 2nd best gets second choice, etc.
Wow. I guess you can see alternate futures. Cognitive dissonance is alive and well.
@@runwithyaz
I said “might”. I don’t think you know what “cognitive dissonance” means because it is not applicable here.
I like Kenny, I was rooting for him and Noah, and since Noah was sick I wish Kenny would’ve grabbed gold, and maybe he would’ve with greater focus/preparation, that is all I am saying; there is no need to be so condescending.
Kenny Kenny Kenny my brother Lyles is the face of the LA Olympics and the sponsors wanted a double double from this Olympics to
take into the next one. That is why the 100m title was stolen and given to Lyles by virtue of a rule that shouldn't be used in the finals
to separate times. Noah was also given a weaker 100m semis. to help him preserve Energy while his rival's semi's was STACKED
This is how the game is played at this level my man. America desperately wants to move beyond Bolt being the last to double.
Correct the Olympic Association Broke their own rules because the winner for a final is not determined by 1000s of a second .... straight up robbery
So it's rigged, huh? Lol
@@snoopj15USA always rig and play innocent. Eu and USA the pluderers.
plunderers
@@snoopj15 more like "arranged" for the benefit of the "sponsors". Just like the NBA, NFL etc. Thats just how it is
I think Kenny is jealous of Noah, thus attracting his perceived favoritism of Noah over himself. If he changes his attitude, the mysterious "favoritism" will vanish.
But we know now kung fu kenny beat Noah in the 200. Congrats on your SILVER!!!
💁🏾♀️MY TAKE:
Its always been a CHEATING SYSTEM.
Take a look at the placements of Gabby thomas. Infact, take a look at The Championship " Allyson Felix ". Her last few races were very suspicious. Its almost like they got bored with her knowing it was her last race. Even one team mate kinda disrespected her in one of the mixed relay. During the ending interview the interviewer asked how they felt on their win. Nevertheless, Allyson Felix always expressed her emotions with the understanding that there is "A face" that one shares with the fans and "A face" for ones team mates and that is called professionalism. PROFESSIONALISM AT ALL TIMES.
When you get home with your FAMILY, this is when you can WILD OUT.
Didn't he do reaaaaal bad in the 4× whatever. That was emmmbbbaarrraaasssing.
He whining ???
So when he said that man ain't winning was he talking about Kenny Bednarek? Someone enlighten me please because I would really want to know which man he is talking? 😅
All of em.
@newsfeedsports OK it's just that it sounds like he was speaking about a specific person he should have said those men instead of that man.
Noah will be back!!!!
Kenny is the best American at 200m 💯💥💢
I get they want to see the others, but it's a race ... run it like you're alone full bore.
Yes thought that the idea was to seed based on qualifying times in order to get a technical V when coming to the finish.
Especially for semis and finals.
I can understand luck of the draw for heats and single run races.
It was also wrong that the introductions weren't done in qualifying order, but in order of who they thought should win.
At least in the swimming it was done properly by qualifying time.
Noah has covid and should not have been allowed to compete. Noah has a big ego, nothing wrong with that,you have to have confidence but the cockyness never looks good.
There are no laws in most countries now preventing you from working if you have covid.
Noah overrated and too cocky.. he got humbled today and came up lame 😒
He is not Carl Lewis and will Never be
King Fu Kenny has quietly mastered his craft to become one of the best in the world and if he says it then so it is. I am with KB on this one.
I kept saying that he seemed to be the "does it all" "works a lot" yet does not get the equivalent treatment. For what he has consistently performed and put in , he has not received the same treatment. Even with the run you could see his performance was not unstable or even dependent on something but a stable strength and ability. Shame he does not get the same chances.
Kenny still beat Noah. Plus, you should be more concerned about focusing on the race, not looking around.
Kenny is a UNIT, multiple Olympic winner, the dark horse of track. Don't sleep on him
SILENCE IS GOLDEN---Kenny's MOUTH TRIPPED HIM as ALL LIPS CONVICT YOU--NOAH has PSYCH ALL you small people that Understands NOT the PSYCH of MAN--BE Stupid and WHINE
instead of Laughing and SAYING-------------- WE"LL SEE OH/YEA WE WILL SEE
Kenny's absolutely right.. the winner of heats always get the best lanes for the finals.
Because of kenny usa lost 4*100 relay better concentrate on run than excuses
Congrats my Lion Kenny!🦁 The world now knows your name, brother! 🦁🔥✨🌅
Noah won the silver in the 100m
And bronze in the 200m Congratulations Noah
He Won gold in the 100m
@@ifyousayso4557 won which gold kmt.
So true, I agree with you,this is the worst Olympic
Favourism and injustices have killed it all . Well people have even lost interest in it
So disheartening 😢
It’s terrible that the good athletes have to go through this.
I totally agree with Kenny. He speaks the truth. He won his heat and thus should have gotten lane 5 or 4...
True. That Noah boy is the spoilest brat. The 100m Gold to Noah was a political decision. Kishane won it.
Track 101 dip at the line
"IF " Noah's the fastest man in the world, how come I COULDN'T SEE CLEARLY that he was FIRST to the FINISH line, unlike Bolt, Tebogo, Holloway, Sydney, Gabby....
He's correct.... worst olympics by far.
Stop being bitter…run your race
🎉🎉Teboho 🥇🔥🇧🇼🌠🌟🇿🇦🔥🇧🇼🇿🇦🇧🇼🇿🇦🇿🇦
Kenny is jealous of Noah and I feel it contributed to him botching the 4x100. needs to be quiet and happy that he consistently wins 🥈
Tebogo and bednarek are beautiful....never really pay attention to their face before.
Thats the thing about black people...when they beautiful,they really beautiful.
When they are ugly,well....hi noah!
We in Africa spoke about this too....how can Lyles have lqne 5 but Tebogo have beaten him in the semi finals ??
This is woke ....wrong ..and favourism
Finally someone calling this out
the media is to blame America has so many potential stars with no recognition
I’m so proud of you, and am ecstatic on your silver medal! That center lane, let EVERYONE CLEARLY SEE that you were ahead of Noah! In the end, it didn’t keep you from shining! It reminded me of the race when Sha’carri was in lane 9 for the 100, and snuck up on Sherika, and Shelley Ann, taking the gold!
Gonna continue to celebrate you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Is this the same Bednarak that completely destroyed the mens 4x400 after subbing in for Lyles, that Bednarak? Clown 😂
No Chuck, the botched pass was in the 4x100 not the 4x400 . USA men and women both won Gold in the 4x400 relays. 👍
I’m with Kung Fu Kenny. I actually like Noah Lyles, too, but I believe what Bednarek says
Yes, ofili was disadvantaged too even after having the third fastest time in the women's 200m
I like when America gets humbled once In a while. But I told myself " If America wins, let it be Kenny not this guy.
I agree. The game is rigged. If only they had a chance, they could have stolen this one, but it was clear as daylight. No 0.0005 secs to get a chance to steal.
Actually its lane 6, 7, and 8 that are the most preferred lanes in a 200m now. Lane 4 is no longer desirable because you still have to run a tight curve in lane 4.
You can win from any lane as chacari did in the world 100m
You are talking bullshit
Bro Tebogo didn't a good lane he won
Same thing they did to favour Ofili in 200m final.
They did him dirty, I was wondering how kung fu Kenny won his heat and got that lane draw.
The lanes in swimming are based on seed time - athletics not facing this locked down is crazy
