He wont, will stop trying once he's got it won again 
     
   
 
You have to admit, you're as suprised as me he went for the WR, especially after all his performances so far. He didnt smash it, so the last bit of my post is correct   
   No cos as MJ said yesetrday, he ease doff in the semi cos he could, no doign that in the final... he'd ahve doen better had he not been so tired IMO and also the headwind!

IOC President Jacques Rogge has said Bolt needs to grow up and show more respect for his rivals. And instead of celebrating he should be shaking hands with them all.

Jacques Rogge related to Sepp Blatter per chance? 
 
The guy's a superstar; he gets up at 11am, eats chicken nuggets for breakfast then breaks the 100m world record for lunch. He's alright in my book

Why don't i know any of these athletes names?   
 
I remember i used to be able to tell you every single athlete in every event and this is supposedly the most succesful team GB in a century! 
 
Linford Christie, Sally Gunnell, Roger Black, Johnathon Edwards, Steve Backley etc etc all seem to be more famous for some reason

We need a sprinter that doesn't take hundreds of drugs. 
 
I reckon we should scour the hoods for some big black guy that's fast at running away from the cops
