Manu or Spurs fans who's the most loyal?

Question by terry h: Manu or Spurs fans who's the most loyal? I'd say Spurs fans are, at least they've got the guts to come on here win or lose. Where are the Man u supporters? if they had won, this forum would be non stop threads about how great they are. Where r yer.. where r yer. you know it's gonna be like this all season when one of our teams win / lose, so I have to get my oar in because I know we'll get stick sometime this season, so just enjoy it when you win and take it on the chin when you lose. Max W.. Roy Keene ? Chopra? I'm a gooner so what are you on about? Best answer:

Answer by Red Ricky
I'd say that on average Spurs fans would have to be more loyal. That being said, there are MANY loyal and legitimate Man U fans, but Man U attracts a lot of bandwagon fans because they have so many famous players and are very well known. However, most of those kinds of fans aren't true fans, and if Man U had a few off years those fans would be onto whatever team is doing better.

(In reference to Johnson's Q) Is saying "Man U" really disrespectful to Manchester United Football Club...?

man united supporters forum
by SS&SS
Question by Aries: (In reference to Johnson's Q) Is saying "Man U" really disrespectful to Manchester United Football Club...? I'd like Man United fans to check this blog out. I'm under the impression it's a respectable Man United blog and they do bring up some interesting points... (In the blog, this subject is discussed entirely by United fans... so don't worry about any "ABUs" *rolls eyes* blagging shite... you can even check the sources yourself if you wish) Note - I'm not trying to offend anyone. I was aware of this but I still say "Man United" or "Man Utd" to avoid controversy... http://www.manutdtalk.com/forums/man-utd-chat/35261-using-term-man-u-disrespectful-offensive-insult.html Oh yeah, mistake. Replace "Blog" with "Forum" lol Dan - Would you bring up tragedies just so you can get under their skin? Oh, it's ok... as long as United get offended, eh... Best answer:

Answer by Oisin™ The legend himself
I do not believe anyone says Man U to insult United, they just say Man U because they are too lazy to write Man United. Also BBC and ITV always use Man U, including last night against Chelsea. Anyways this topic has become quite boring, so this is the last thing i will say about it.

Q&A: ABUs - If all United fans are 'armchair supporters' - how come then that....?

Question by non-aligned: ABUs - If all United fans are 'armchair supporters' - how come then that....? ...they still pack in 69,000 every week at Old Trafford and fill all their away allocations? Best answer:

Answer by siRyan
I can't figure out how to star this question on my phone, so I'll be back later on. - edit - FOX I'M ONLY EDITING CAUSE YOU'RE TALKING SH.TE "The Glazers force United fans to purchase tickets. FORCE US TO BUY ALL CUP GAMES IF WE OPT IN FOR A SEASON TICKET The announcements for their attendance are based on ticket sales, not physically present supporters entering through the gates. So when the announcer states "75,000" in reality it's most likely 70-72k. 72-74K - IS THE AVERAGE ANNOUNCEMENT I HEAR AT GAMES (PL/CL/F.A. Cup) So in truth we never know how many actually turn up physically but the Wolves game (where the attendance was down to just 50,000) was a good indication that United's support is just as fickle as everyone elses at times. IN TRUTH WE DO KNOW HOW MANY SHOW UP - BETWEEN 72-74k (FOR ABOVE COMPETITIONS) PER GAME. ONLY A FEW HUNDRED MAX DON'T SHOW UP AFTER BUYING A TICKET OR PASSING ONE ON. OUR ATTENDANCES FOR MIDWEEK CARLING CUP GAMES DO DROP TO ROUGHLY THE LEVEL OF ATTENDANCE TO MAN CITY PL GAMES, BUT OUR PL, CL AND F.A CUP ATTENDANCES GIVE A GOOD INDICATION OF UNITED'S STRONG SUPPORT. ALSO MAN CITY'S ATTENDANCES DROP FOR CARLING CUP GAMES. . P.S. United didn't fill their away allocation at the City Of Manchester Stadium. I'D LIKE A LINK FOR THAT, AND EVEN IF WE DIDN'T SELL OUT FOR THAT ONE PARTICULAR GAME (WHAT BY 10 OR SOMETHING??) WE STILL HAVE THE STRONGEST AWAY FOLLOWING IN THE LEAGUE. OUR ALLOCATIONS HAVE BEEN CUT CAUSE OUR FANS REFUSE TO SIT DOWN. ______________________________________________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDmF4rPLgaY&feature=related ______________________________________________________ edit: The truth is so hard to swallow, isn't it United fans. I'm not here to tell you what you WANT to hear. XP IT'S NOT HARD TO SWALLOW MATE NO... LMAO. IT'S NOT THE TRUTH edit: LIPI....I MIGHT NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS FISH......! I am sensing some hostility on this matter (and a lack of creditable opposing viewpoints and links) Calm down Johnnykins! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-PIckHrZ0o (p.s. It's 35 now. Keep up the obsession with MCFC, won't you. Fun, innit) Source(s): Don't believe me? Okay, fine. But you're only lying to yourselves. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/6742221.stm I DON'T AGREE WITH THIS POLICY, ALTHOUGH IN PREVIOUS YEARS YOU'VE BEEN ABLE TO OPT IN FOR WHICHEVER COMPS YOU WANT AND ADD THEM TO YOUR S/TICKET. INCIDENTALLY I'VE OPTED FOR PL/CL/F.A CUP ON 2 OCCASIONS AND ALL 4 COMPS THE OTHER 4 TIMES I'VE HAD A TICKET FOR, BUT I STILL DON'T AGREE WITH THE POLICY. How can you "sell out" if you didn't buy all the season tickets? http://www.caughtoffside.com/2010/09/01/manchester-united-fall-short-of-season-ticket-target-victory-for-must/ WE NEVER SELL OUT OUR SEASON TICKETS COME DAY 1 OF THE SEASON - WHICH IS WHEN THEY ANNOUNCE SALES. THEY USUALLY SELL OUT BY THE END OF AUGUST, AND YES I WILL CONCEDE THEY DID NOT SELL OUT UNTIL OCTOBER THIS YEAR...BUT THEY STILL SOLD OUT. WHAT JOHNSON IS REFERRING TO (as you know) WHEN HE SAYS HE VISITS A SOLD OUT OLD T IS THE FACT THAT THE REST OF THE 75K SEATS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN SOLD IN THE FORM OF SEASON TICKETS.. ARE THEN BROKEN UP INTO SINGLES AND SOLD PER GAME.YOU HAVE THE SAME SYSTEM AT MAN CITY OFC. I know we won our 19th today mate, but keep it under control.

Darron Gibson joins Everton from Manchester United | English Premier League transfer latest

Everton have completed the signing of Darron Gibson from Manchester United on a four-and-a-half year deal for an undisclosed fee. Gibson, 24, has moved to Everton to become the club's second signing of the January transfer window. The Republic of Ireland midfielder said: "I am looking foward to the challenge and it was the right time for me to move on from Manchester United. "Hopefully I can improve Everton, it's a great club with great fans." Gibson has a reputation for scoring spectacular goals, netting 10 times in 60 appearances for United. "I think I'm a goalscoring midfielder and hopefully I can get a few goals," he added. "I've scored a few long-range shots - I don't think I've scored one inside the box to be honest - and if I score goals it's a bonus for me. "I'm just looking to do as well as I can for the team." Gibson, a product of the United youth team, was born in Northern Ireland but opted to play for the Republic and has won 17 caps. A proposed summer move to Sunderland broke down over personal terms, and he was down the pecking order at United. He is the Toffees' second signing this month after they brought Landon Donovan back to Goodison Park from LA Galaxy for a short loan spell. Boss David Moyes had also been hoping to sign a striker, but may now need to pay more attention to central defence, with England international Phil Jagielka out for six weeks with a knee injury and Sylvain Distin suffering a hamstring injury in the 2-0 defeat by Tottenham at White ...

Written by Brendan Bures Sports Editor FILED UNDER FSU News FSU News Football www.fsunews.com/article/20121010/FSVIEW0201/121010028/Mis...|topnews|text|frontpage Admit it: you're still not over Florida State's loss against NC State. I get it, neither am I. While some of us just want to forget—oh, how we wish we could never speak of that ill-fated loss—others never want to stop. Every class, every bus-stop conversation, every Club Stroz visit, somebody mentions the loss and their specific problems with it. Now, this epidemic will only be exacerbated this weekend when surely mom and pop will have something to say how disappointed they are in your/their/our Seminoles losing. Because we care about you, we want to prepare you for those conversations, you fated few who really wish this loss and the conversation could be swept under the rug. Here, in ascending order, are the top-5 reasons you're all upset and a quick retort to end the conversation. Think of it as a masochistic schadenfreude where tears fill your eyes contemplating your own misery. Isn't this fun? --- 5. This was the year, man! Part of the problem is our own bloated expectations. Not to say we didn't have reason to believe this team was special in any significant way, because even coaches and players said the same, but we've been hurt before. We're like kids perpetually burning ourselves on hot cookies before they cool, only to instantly forget why we have scars plastered all over our body. Florida State was expected and predicted to go undefeated, anything short, like a loss to NC State, is seen as failure. Response: No need to be clever here. Just use the words of top hunting dog himself, Jimbo Fisher. "How many undefeated seasons been around here?" he asked reporters rhetorically Monday. "One." And we should never expect another one. --- 4. The ACC stinks this year Okay, this one's pretty valid. The Duke Blue Devils have the same regular season record as Florida State. And they're coming here for our homecoming game where traditions include, but are not limited to: floats, questionable artist selection, super eyebrow-raising comedian choices and losing. Be afraid. But don't show it, because you, the Seminole faithful must remain strong this week. Response: Yeah, but at least we're not the Big Ten! --- 3. Um, top 5 defense? Florida State's defense gave up three fourth down conversions to NC State, the same amount of successful FSU offensive third down conversions. You're upset because one of the best defenses of the country couldn't stop the Wolfpack offense. Response: Simple—Florida State's defense was gassed at the end of the day. If that fails, stick to the old standby: ACC refs suck. --- 2. Blocked punts How could Florida State give up blocked punts in back-to-back weeks? Not sure, how did President Obama suffer through the entirety of the Presidential debates without uttering the number "47" at least 47 times? Some questions cannot be answered. Response: Probably the toughest to weasel your way out of. Rely on Jedi mind tricks and wave in front of the questioner saying, "these are not the questions you seek answers for." --- 1. Jimbo Fisher's playcalling The complaint of 70 percent of fans this week. They say he ran too much on first down, that he went conservative when the team needed to be most aggressive, that he called scared. EJ Manuel looked like a hunting dog brought to the Canadian backwoods only to be put down Ol' Yeller style when asked if he thought they would throw more—shouldn't the most efficient quarterback in ACC history get to throw a little more? All valid complaints, but surely every call has a reason, right? Response: Take it away, Jimbo. "No," Fisher said when asked if there was a decision he would change from Saturday's game. "I go back and if we execute, no. Then, we move on. That's the game." If the head coach doesn't have any regrets, neither should you. . . .............................................................................................................................................................................................. . .....item 4a)....

Calls to toughen regulation follow JPMorgan loss ... By DANIEL WAGNER | Associated Press – 5 hours ago ... Friday, May 11, 2012 421f8a7a6a2b9a6f04fae927bdcdf32d WASHINGTON (AP) — JPMorgan Chase faced intense criticism Friday for claiming that a surprise billion loss by one of its trading groups was the result of a sloppy but well-intentioned strategy to manage financial risk. More than three years after the financial industry almost collapsed, the colossal misfire was cited as proof that big banks still do not understand the threats posed by their own speculation. "It just shows they can't manage risk — and if JPMorgan can't, no one can," said Simon Johnson, the former chief economist for the International Monetary Fund. JPMorgan is the largest bank in the United States and was the only major bank to remain profitable during the 2008 financial crisis. That lent credibility to its tough-talking CEO, Jamie Dimon, as he opposed stricter regulation in the aftermath. But Dimon's contention that the billion loss came from a hedging strategy that backfired, not an opportunistic bet with the bank's own money, faced doubt on Friday, if not outright ridicule. "This is not a hedge," said Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., chair of a subcommittee that investigated the crisis. He said the trades were instead a "major bet" on the direction of the economy, as published reports suggested. On Friday, Dimon told NBC News, for an interview airing Sunday on "Meet the Press," that he did not know whether JPMorgan had broken any laws or regulatory rules. He said the bank was "totally open" to regulators. The head of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Mary Schapiro, told reporters that the agency was focused on the JPMorgan loss but declined to comment further. JPMorgan's disclosure Thursday recharged a debate about how to ensure that banks are strong and competitive without allowing them to become so big and complex that they threaten the financial system when they falter. The JPMorgan loss did not cause anything close to the panic that followed the September 2008 failure of the Lehman Brothers investment bank. But it shook the confidence of the financial industry. Within minutes after trading began on Wall Street, JPMorgan stock had lost almost 10 percent, wiping out about billion in market value. It closed down 9.3 percent. Fitch Ratings downgraded the bank's credit rating by one notch, while Standard & Poor's cut its outlook JPMorgan to "negative," indicating a credit-rating downgrade could follow. Morgan Stanley and Citigroup closed down more than 4 percent, and Goldman Sachs closed down almost 4 percent. The broader stock market was down only slightly for the day. Dimon gave few details about the trades Thursday beyond saying they involved "synthetic credit positions," a type of the complex financial instruments known as derivatives. Enhanced oversight of derivatives was a pillar of the 2010 financial overhaul law, known as Dodd-Frank, but the implementation has been delayed repeatedly and will not take effect until the end of this year at the earliest. JPMorgan's trades show that the derivatives market remains too opaque for regulators to oversee effectively, said Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., one of the law's namesakes. "When a supposedly responsible, well-run organization could make such an enormous mistake with derivatives, that really blows up the argument, 'Oh, leave us alone, we don't need you to regulate us,'" he said. Criticism of the bank did not stop with its traditional chorus of detractors. It also came from Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., a prominent member of the Senate Banking Committee who has received ,000 since January 2011 from JPMorgan's political action committee, the most any candidate has received. Corker, a leader of a failed effort last year to block a Federal Reserve rule that slashed bank profits from debit cards, called for a hearing "as expeditiously as possible" into the events surrounding JPMorgan's loss. Tim Ryan, president of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, a trade group, said it was impossible to legislate or regulate risk out of the financial system. "My hope is that this is viewed as bona fide hedging, but it went wrong," he said in an interview. "A mistake was made. Money is going to be lost. It's not customer money. It's not government money. It's JPMorgan's money, the shareholders of JPMorgan." No one seemed to suggest Friday that JPMorgan had broken a law. But the mistake added a wrinkle to the still-unsettled discussion about how the financial industry should be regulated in the aftermath of 2008. "This just tells you that we are a long, long way from getting our arms around this whole 'too big to fail' issue," said Cliff Rossi, a former top risk executive for Citigroup, Countrywide and other big financial companies. Immediately after the crisis, a time of popular outrage over bailouts and investment losses, there was broad public support for an overhaul of bank regulations. The changes promoted by the Obama administration were in many cases similar to what the financial industry had sought before the crisis: Consolidation of regulators and oversight of the multi-trillion-dollar marketplace for derivatives. Regulators are still drafting hundreds of rules under the 2010 law. As Wall Street has returned to record profits, and executives to million-dollar bonuses, banks have fought to soften those rules. In particular, the industry has fought hard against a few provisions that might have prevented the problems at JPMorgan. One is the so-called Volcker rule, which will prohibit banks from trading for their own profit. The rule is still being written, and the Federal Reserve has said it will begin enforcement in 2014. JPMorgan said that its bets were made only to hedge against financial risk. Dimon conceded that the strategy was "egregious" and poorly monitored. But analysts, former bank executives and many lawmakers disagreed. "This is an exact description of proprietary trading-style activity," Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., told reporters Friday. "This really is a textbook illustration of why we need a strong Volcker rule firewall." Nancy Bush, a longtime bank analyst at NAB Research and a contributing editor at SNL Financial, said the trades probably crossed that line because they were making money for JPMorgan. "So they made money on hedges and then they hedged some more," she said. "At some point it goes from being a hedge to being a moneymaker." JPMorgan was seen as a savior of weaker banks during the financial crisis and the only big bank to escape relatively unscathed. His reputation enhanced, Dimon, 56, has been emboldened to challenge efforts to toughen regulation. In an interview with the Fox Business Network earlier this year, Dimon said that Paul Volcker, the former Federal Reserve chairman for whom the rule is named "doesn't understand capital markets." Last year, he questioned the current Fed chair, Ben Bernanke, about the rules and said they might be delaying the recovering of the financial system and the broader economy. "Has anyone bothered to study the cumulative effect of all these things?" he asked. Dimon, who grew up in the Queens borough of New York and was groomed by the former Citigroup chief executive Sanford Weill, has also chafed against Occupy Wall Street protesters. "Acting like everyone who's been successful is bad and that everyone who is rich is bad — I just don't get it," he said at a conference earlier this year. On Thursday, at about the same time he was breaking news of the billion loss to Wall Street, Dimon sent an email to JPMorgan's 270,000 worldwide employees assuring them that the company was "very strong." ___ AP Business Writer Marcy Gordon, AP Business Writer Pallavi Gogoi and Associated Press writer Jack Gillum contributed to this report.

The first warning sign of the disease came on August 31 when Mason felt a burning sensation in her right leg. Becoming worried she texted her son, reported the Fay Observer. The following day, on September 1, Carl Mason checked on his mother and her leg looked fine. On August 3, Carl Mason returned to check on his mother after she texted him the previous day saying that her leg was now a little swollen and painful. When his mother didn't answer the door, Mason broke in and discovered her lying on the floor, still breathing but with a severely bruised leg.

Georgia student Aimee Copeland 0b4cd2f9c4903fd1e7ed899558d396ad Survivor: The same disease savagely struck Georgia student Aimee Copeland forcing surgeons to amputate all four of her limbs to save her life AP ................................. . Mason died on September 5, five days after complaining about her leg, which by now was entirely blackened. Because bacteria was still ravaging Mason's body after she died, medical professionals, friends and family had to take precautionary measures against contracting the disease. At her funeral, mourners were kept three foot from the open casket, the paper reported. Carl Mason told the FayObserver that his mother loved reading to her two-year-old granddaughter and was determined to recover from her fracture. Earlier this month, Robert Turner, a 32-year-old convicted murderer died from necrotizing fasciitis while he was still serving time in a Chicago prison. Last month Anthony Hills, 55, from Charleston, died from the aggressive infection and in July seven-year-old Tevita Alatini from Texas was also killed from the condition. Linda Snyder, a pastor from Sacramento, California, lost her life in June after being infected as did Michigan woman Crystal Spencer, 33. In May, new mother, Lana Kuykendall, contracted necrotizing fasciitis in a hospital in upstate South Carolina, just after delivering her twin babies. She underwent 20 surgical procedures to stop the aggressive bacteria spreading but managed to avoid having any limbs amputated. Earlier in the year the same disease savagely struck Georgia student Aimee Copeland forcing surgeons to amputate all four of her limbs to save her life. In total at least six Americans have now died from the infection and another eight victims have had limbs amputated. ----- NECROTIZING FASCIITIS: THE DEADLY FLESH-EATING BACTERIA Necrotizing fasciitis, more commonly known as 'flesh-eating disease', is a rare but extremely vicious bacterial infection. 'Necrotizing' refers to something that causes body tissue to die, and the infection can destroy skin, muscles and fat. The disease develops when the bacteria enters the body, often through a minor cut or scrape. As the bacteria multiply, they release toxins that kill tissue and cut off blood flow to the area. Because it is so virulent, the bacteria spreads rapidly throughout the body. Symptoms include small, red lumps or bumps on the skin, rapidly-spreading bruising, sweating, chills, fever and nausea. Organ failure and shock are also common complications. Sufferers must be treated immediately to prevent death, and are usually given powerful antibiotics and surgery to remove dead tissue. Amputation can become necessary if the disease spreads through an arm or leg. Patients may undergo skin grafts after the infection has cleared up, to help the healing process or for aesthetic reasons.

The All-Army WCAP team dashed away with the international Army trophy after defeating the three-time reigning champions from Rio de Janeiro. "We beat the Brazilians," Spc. Robert Cheseret said moments after leading the elite U.S. squad of four men by finishing third with a time of 48 minutes, 20 seconds. "They haven't finished the official results, but we did the math with our times and we should be ahead of them. We are very confident that we did it, so I'm very happy about that. "Everybody worked hard to make sure we won it, and we did it." Cheseret, 27, a native of Kenya who won NCAA championships at both 5,000 and 10,000 meters on the track for the University of Arizona, was the U.S. Army's shining star on this day at the Pentagon. "It's amazing," he said of the atmosphere provided by supporters who lined the 10-mile route along streets of Northern Virginia and around monuments of Washington. "You have people cheering at almost every point. This is the best road race I've ever ran. I like it." So does Ethiopian Alene Reta, 28, who ran away with the race for the second consecutive year with a winning time of 47:10. Reta opened with a 4:29 first mile and went through two in 9 minutes. He won in 2009 with an event-record time of 46:59. "As defending champion, I wanted to come back again this year," said Reta, who decided Tuesday he would run the Army Ten-Miler despite hamstring tightness Oct. 16 at the Baltimore Marathon. "When I go to race, I don't think of winning or taking second, I always like to better my time." Nobody dared go with him, and Reta never looked back. "Did you see how fast he went out? If he did that for 10 miles, that's a world record probably," said WCAP Maj. Dan Browne, 35, who was content to lead the second pack through the mile mark in 4:40 and finished fourth in 48:22. "It wasn't hot out, but it wasn't cool at the start, so you've got to be smart. "I felt like I did the things I needed to do to give myself the best chance," continued Browne, a six-time top-five finisher in the Army Ten-Miler. "I led the second group for two-thirds of the race. It was kind of just me holding pace. I wasn't really catching the second-place guy, so we had a nice, fun finish at the end." Ethiopian Tesfaye Sendeku was second in 47:58. Cheseret passed four runners, including Browne, during the final mile to finish third. "The kick at the end is part of my strength," said Cheseret, whose goal is to run the 5,000 meters for Team USA at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. "I went out with the leader but his pace was too fast, so I dropped back and ran with Dan and a group of about five other guys. Dan really did a great job for us today." Behind Browne, Ethiopian Fikadu Lemma finished fifth in 48:22, followed by Neal Cabating (48:33) of Washington and the first two members of the Brazilian Army team: Clodoaldo Silva (48:38) and Wilson Lima (48:38), both of Rio de Janeiro. WCAP-bound PV2 Joseph Chirlee of Fort Sam Houston, Texas, was ninth in 49:11. Lucas Meyer of Ridgefield, Conn., rounded out the men's top 10 in 49:25. First Lt. John Mickowski of WCAP gutted out the final mile to finish 11th for the All-Army team in 49:40. WCAP Spc. Kenneth Foster completed the elite U.S. squad with a 13th-place finish in 50:26. They both beat Brazilian Army's Jose Ferreira, 35, winner of the 2007 Army Ten-Miler who finished fifth in the 2008 and 2009 events. "With a mile to go, my stomach just seized up," said Mickowski, 24, the reigning U.S. Armed Forces cross-country champion. "I probably ran that last mile in 6:30. I started sprinting at the end and I couldn't breathe. I don't know if I didn't hydrate right or what. I literally almost couldn't run. I just hung on to finish. I'm just perplexed because it's never happened before." Then again, the U.S. Army team had not beaten the Brazilians, either – until the 26th running of the Army Ten-Miler, thanks to Cheseret, Browne, Mickowski and Foster. On the women's side, Aziza Abate, 25, of Albuquerque, N.M., posted a runaway victory in 55:54, followed by WCAP Capt. Kelly Calway (57:20) of Fort Carson, Colo., Michaela Courtney (58:14) of Arlington, Va., Gabriela Trana (58:31) of Alajuela, Costa Rica, and 42-year-old masters winner Peggy Yetman (58:51) of Leesburg, Va. "My husband is in Afghanistan right now so I wish he could be here, but I know he's cheering for me," said Calway, 27, who hopes to qualify Dec. 5 for the 2012 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials at the California International Marathon. "I heard him during the race. I miss him a lot. He's my number one fan. And my number-two fan is right over there: my three-year-old daughter, Hazel." WCAP Capt. Emily Potter (58:56) of Fort Bragg, N.C., Ethiopian Muliye Gurmu (59:13), Emily Shertzer (59:28) of Hummelstown, Pa., Kim Siedsma (59:48) of Fairfax, Va., and Russian Elena Kaledina (1:00:07) completed the top 10. "I actually ran way faster than I thought I would," said Potter, 31, who plans to run the Conseil International du Sport Militaire's 43rd World Military Marathon Championships Oct. 31 in Athens, Greece, on the same course Brown ran at the 2004 Summer Olympics.
