Be a good samaritan and help this kid get a date with Lolo Jones
The summer track circuit happens so fast, that plenty of small news can get swept under the rug. Unlike the other seasons where everything is geared towards the weekends, all sorts of meets are held throughout the week. It’s a bit like baseball, I guess. As much as I like watching games almost everyday, I’m also usually kicking myself for not setting my fantasy team’s roster.
So between the USA Championships (last week), the USA Youth Champs (ongoing) Ostrava (today), Edmonton (tomorrow), Harry Jerome (Sunday), and Birmingham (Sunday), some important tidbits may go unnoticed.
Dream big, kid. If Harry “Bubby” Lyles Jr. can get 150,000 retweets, then he’ll taking a Ms. Lolo Jones on a date. That's the deal. His hopeful tweet currents sits at 50,000 retweets.
Flotrack’s European correspondent Chris Chavez knows how I feel about social media “news,” but I can’t help but support this cause.
You can read more HERE, but that’s basically the whole story.
