I saw the Men's 100M Final with Usain "Lightning" Bolt Saturday night. :o It doesn't make any sense how fast that dude is! He slowed down and STILL broke the world record! Congrats to Walter Dix on getting Bronze. I missed the Women's 100M Final last night but I see Jamaica swept the podium! Big up Jamaica!

I wasn't surprised after that injury in the trials. He was definitely a challenger but he just wasn't 100%. That article explains it all.

Ehhhh I wouldn't count Phelps' 100th of a second win as cheating, that's what the touch pads are for. Now "China and gymnastics" and "the judges and boxing" are another story. When you have the human element responsible for scoring, there's always bound to be some controversy. I was hurt for Lolo Jones last night in 110M Hurdles She held it together for the post race interview but they didn't have to show her crying under the bleachers. I remember the Gail Devers clip they showed when she lost her gold to a clipped hurdle. I'm looking forward to the men's 200M tonight with Usain Bolt and Walter Dix. I know Bolt will win it but I hope Dix will medal again also.

I cant wait to see the 200M race. It will definitely be an exciting race to watch. I think Shawn Crawford and Walter Dix will challenge Usain Bolt for the gold medal.

More like challenge themselves for silver! Usain makes it look too easy. I felt sorry for Sonya Richards in the 400M. She had the gold....up until the last 80-50M when she cramped up. At least she held up for bronze.
