I’m a great fan of both of them, and watching their feats live was an amazing experience. However, I must say that Bolt’s was even more amazing, seeing someone so confident on his own skill. If you think about it twice, maybe he did it unconsciously. There’s a split second difference between winning or losing, so I don’t think he actually calculated all that so that he could both break the World Record and break it again later. Maybe that’s how it is, period.

Anyway I still get the goosebumps when I see the video of Usain Bolt running. Jamaica banzai! ^^

As with the furour around Usain in Beijing, I don’t see the need for all the quarrelling. So the guy had a bong of a time; how many people do? And if it wasn’t some enhancement drug for his performance I don’t see why the IOC is to be involved. By they it has come to my attention after reading the incident report that the fellow who got the ‘pot’ testified to the sheriff that he got some good Jamaican ganja from some fellow somewhere and Mike insisted on sharing in the goodies. Well at least we know he seems to have the taste for only the best.

LOL, That comic is funny even though it’s the truth. We would never hear the end of it if it was Bolt. They would be calling for his head.

This isn’t the first time for Phelps either. I believe I remember he got picked up for drunk driving shortly after the 2004 Olympics too… :(
