Bolt is just cool. Walking around having a chat and fist pumping the lane attendant before the race. A marketers dream.

Interesting coverage of him by Gruen Sweat last week. I can find his earnings at just over $20M this last year but he now must be heading towards almost unlimited amounts. Thoroughly deserved and he brings so much to all athletics from his personality. Surprised the competition between him and the Beast didn't break the world record but definitely the defining moment from the Games. Sensational.

Bolt is a class act, I loved this interview that was played here the other night. Bolt comes in around the 1.20 mark

And what could be better after a Manly win than more women's rhythmic gymnastics! Damn my imagination

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Just watching us in the process of gold number 4

Gonna sit up most of the night for the BMX and hopefully see number 5 but shouldn't get too far ahead of myself lol

All our golds on the water so far with another big hope tomorrow

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

How good is this BMX !!

Carnage everywhere

Yeah I really like their ummm?? their ribbons,yeah their ribbons

Argies vs Dutch in womens hockey is easy on the eye.

Bolt is a freak. He has etched himself in history now. Great to see the other young guy get up for third to make it a Jamaican trifecta. Anything that keeps the Yanks off the podium is a good thing.

Steve Hooker has to be the big disappointment of the games. Pretty meek effort at defending his title.

We picked up another gold in the kayak. 5 is a good effort for us, she was a hottie as well

 

[ManlyBacker]

Super effort there bro!

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

These 2 go alright

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Just been given another gold !! Finish on 6 now

The thing that won the shotput was doped up

 

[Fluffy]

shame they dont do that for NRL drug cheats... cough Knights cough

 

[The Eagle]

Dibs on the brunette

In all seriousness though what sort of moron tries doping in the most tested event in the world?

 

[Fro]

agreed Shane, but i guess its risk vs reward.

and on the shotputter, how ugly was the "woman" who was busted??

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

She is horrendous Fro, Nadzeya Ostapchuk. Looks like the kid off 2 and a half men

Hard to understand the headspace behind taking the stuff, I suppose she got sick of being 2nd in every major meet since 2007 and figured it was her only way to win, added a metre to her PB in the space of 6 weeks. Apparently she has come out and said the IOC have an agenda against Belarus lol
