1-2-3 will be Bolt, Gatlin, Blake.
My guess also. Thought Bolt might be rusty until seeing that semi final.

Midwest, that story is true. Here's another true story connected to Sally.
I was standing with her Dad in the back yard as steaks sizzled on the grill.
He points to the close privacy fence and says: " See that house right there ?
Little girl that recently moved was Sally's good friend. Sally had many sleep-overs
there. Well her Dad was caught flying his plane, lights off, over the Okeefenokee
Swamp. Somehow they forced him to land. When they searched his plane, thinking
on finding drugs, they opened a huge toolbox and found the cut up body of his wife."
Right there, I got chills thinking of innocent little 10 y.o. Sally mingling that close to
a killer.
Dammit. The Canadian beat Blake out for the Bronze by 0.02 seconds.1-2-3 will be Bolt, Gatlin, Blake.

What's more insane, Bolt winning three golds in three Olympics in the 100m Dash or the fact that he ran a 9.84 in the semi's pulling up the last 10m to glide. Gatlin was near perfect out of the blocks in the 100m final. Bolt was splashy out of the block (which would kill almost other competitor) and still crushed the field.
Bolt could have ran faster and would have won but I was really surprised Gatlin ran a slower time than 9.8 after getting out of the blocks like that. I thought he may have been sitting on a 9.69 or something like that with how he looked running about a 9.8 earlier in the year. Pressure zapped him some I guess.
I will still never forget Bolt pulling up running a 9.58 years ago. Probably a 9.49 was possible if he kept pushing. I doubt we see a 9.49 for a really long time unless they have already genetically modified some embryos.

What's gonna happen we we find out these Olympians are all pulling a Lance Armstrong?
So that 400m was superhuman. World record from lane 8, that's just absurd![

VERY funny story about LeShawn Merritt, who won the bronze for the US in that amazing 400 final. The story is lengthy, but apparently Merritt isn't......

Apparently he wanted to make sure he "stood tall and proud" to accept his medal.VERY funny story about LeShawn Merritt, who won the bronze for the US in that amazing 400 final. The story is lengthy, but apparently Merritt isn't......
