I'm not sure what is so hard for you to understand here. I expected her to run away and look as good as I saw her last year. She didn't. So that means that she didn't meet my expectations. But in the grand scheme of things, she didn't run that bad a race, a pretty decent time on a new track and surface. Perhaps if you had wanted to just say that my expectations may have been too high, that we may have agreed on. But as you said, this was just needless nitpicking at something that wasn't really confusing at all.
The good question is who ran with the most drugs in their system. I'd put Maurice Greene as the slight favorite over Donovan Bailey and the Headley Mag.
