Could go this way here. I put it 40% chance Powell, and 60% chance Bolt. They bite on Bolt lil too hard. +450 = great price.......Should be 3/5 and 7/5. Powell= overlay.
Asafa is a great starter, if he catches a flyer at the start like he did in that Stockholm race, he has a chance. What will be interesting is if there is a false start...might keep Powell in the blocks on the second time around.

So the race is over, and I won't spoil it in case somebody cares. But, I know I am probably in the minority here, I'd rather watch the signature event of the Olympic Games live than a preliminary round basketball game, some foreign soccer match, and the men's doubles tennis finals.

Agree 100%. I can't believe they would think professional basketball is more interesting than seeing who is the fastest man on the planet live...

I actually watched 5 minutes or so of the game (more than I invested in any NBA game last season) because I was convinced they would switch away to show the 100m live.

maybe Powell should have finished better, but don't think anyone alive was beating the winner.

But, given Powell's past, wouldn't be surprised if he goes to Europe next month and runs 9.68 in some B league meet. He never gets it done on the big stage.

4x100 WR might fall later in the meet with those three Jamaicans. Will be interested to see if Gay runs.
