![]() Sprinting has always been about intimidation and trash talking. Bolt doesn't do either. So what if he celebrates a little bit. If you had just done what he did, you'd have the right to celebrate also. What we just witnessed was a performance for the ages. I've never seen anything like it. Michael Johnson was incredible winning the 200/400 double in Atlanta but this was better. The shorter the race, the harder it is to dominate like that and Bolt made it look easy. He was a man against boys even though he is the boy. And to think that he's only just beginning to find out what he can do. I don't think he can triple in those events though. That is beyond my comprehension level. But I wouldn't be surprised to see a different double in London, either 100/400 or 200/400. I think I'd rather see a 100/400 because I doubt that's ever been done before. Remember, his coach thinks that the 400 would be his best event. I wonder just how low he can get with these times? Can we be looking at a guy that can go 9.55 and 19.20? How incredible would it be to have him set the wr in the 400 also and hold all three at the same time? Are we watching the best ever?

![]() What's gone highly unnoticed and was the most awesome moment of the Olympics to me was David Neville diving for third place in the 400m. For anyone who hasn't ever taken a faceplant on a track while running 100 meter splits of 11 let me assure you it hurts like hell (I was 95% sure I'd lost a nipple). And your chances of actually beating the person by doing it is so slim that is makes it an extra awesome move.

![]() So they are dropping baseball and softball and now I'm going to have to watch this BMX crap? There's a reason I don't watch the X Games, it is close to becoming the same reason I don't watch the Olympics.
