Beijing – Could someone explain to me why Usain Bolt would pull up in the 100 meters with 20 meters to go? I just cannot fathom why a sprinter would pass on a chance to set a world record that could last for generations in order to showboat and celebrate before the finish line. What’s the matter U, couldn’t go ten seconds without rubbing someone’s nose in it? I’ve never wanted someone to fail a drug test so badly in my life. He threw away a possible 9.59, which would be the equivalent of what, 84 homers in a season? 104 goals in Hockey? 62 touchdown passes in football? I can’t wait for someone to break his record by .01 and hold it for ten years. Does this knucklehead realize how fleeting this kind of talent is? Just ask the USA men’s and women’s 4x100 relay teams. This guy’s probably parking cars in four years, his money gone, his records a memory, living under an overpass (or is that over an underpass?) and still too stupid to understand the chance he passed up so he could be a spoiled petulant child. God I hate that crap!
Yours in Anger,
Rex

Well... I missed this Bolt race (gladly.. because I could not take a moment more of his showboating). But, I would venture to guess that since he already broke Michael Johnson's record in the 200.. and (?) holds the record in the 100 already at 9.69... he saw no need.
If the later of my wiki-ed stats is correct about the 100... my best guess would be that the guy is so sure of himself... he thinks his existing record in the 100 is already untouchable enough.
Frankly... i don't know how the dude runs so fast with such a gigantic head. It's like an orange on a toothpick, so it is. It's like Sputnik!
Giambino and long lost Matsui homer and PAVANO pitches a solid one for a Yank win against the Uh-O's. I must be dreaming. Eh.. that win came out to about $2Million in pay for Pavano. I guess seeing the Yanks play as of late.. it might be worth it (HA!) |

| Rex O' Right-On-The-Money! We were simultaneously dumbfounded (Matt) and confused (Matt) - wondering if we were indeed watching a final. Scratching our heads (each others, not our own), we took longer than the race itself to understand what exactly U Dumb Bolt had done. In the simplest, most materialistic of terms, that stuff cost him $25,000,000.00. |

| At least the games were on so late that no kids could really see it. Thats what makes Michael Phelps so special. Thats why Bryan Clay, who won the decathlon is so special. They are role models. |

It is just a way of making sure in his next race he gets a ca$h incentive to break the world record again. Which will be easy money. Never surprised when sprinters showboat. The idiot Americans in the relay a while back were the worst though.
At the end of last nights Mets game on the radio I think I heard the fans chanting-"We need castillo,we need castillo,we need castillo" |
