Shot Put Capitol

The USATF Outdoor Championships begin today with the men's and women's shot put. Qualifying begins at 10 am for the women and 11:30 am for the men, the finals are this evening 4:30 pm for women and 6:15 pm for men. The event will be broadcast live via USATF.tv.

Now what makes this years shot put intriguing, besides the fact that Joe Kovacs and Darrell Hill will be competing, is the venue for the event....

 
The throwers will be competing at the foot of the California State Capitol building. Is Arnold still the Governor? That would be great to see him come down from his office and see how far he can put it.

    Governor Jerry Brown doesn't know the difference between a shot put and a cumquat. He does know all about how to spend more money than he has. So he has that going for him.

    Hope the organizers have allowed enough room, otherwise the implements may destroy the underpinnings of the California government. Also advise the throwers not to touch the building, as they may pick up some steroid residue from the Schwarzenegger days.
