Beautiful gold, so-so silver and shameful bronze: The running Olympics thread

So....ummm...Usain Bolt is very very good. This was quite the eventful 200m, with Wallace Spearmon suffering a debacle that was painful to watch.

19.30 seconds > than Phelps' eight golds.

(just one man's opinion who never thought he'd ever see someone run the 200m faster than MJ).

 

She also flashed the peace sign with her hand after they announced the final score and saw she won gold.

There are so many gorgeous U.S. female sprinters, it's mind-boggling. From 100 thru 400 meters, so many of these women are stunningly attractive. You can have your veal in leotards, or the chicks on the volleyball court with no ass. These U.S. sprinters are in a league of their own. And from the short interviews they give on the track, they appear to be extremely personable.

 

Bolt ran 19.3 in 200!!!!!!!!!!!

 

That is ungodly fast.

 

It looked like he actually ran this one all-out, too.

 

Ahem.

Moderately NSFW, I suppose, though they are just Olympians in their uniforms.

 

MJ said that this kid was going to break it.

 

With his size, speed and charisma, does he go to the NFL?

 

And take the pounding? He can easily make many millions without the threat of getting decapitated by a safety.

 

What happened to Ross-Williams? She hit a hurdle or something?
