PLAYERS: Usain Bolt

  • Good stuff GG, it represents Jamaica nicely. It is funny that what is known as the pot capital of the world has the fastest man in the world.

  • Don't listen if you tend to hear a tune and are not capable of getting it out of your head.

  • Here is is "it" factor on display. Cool dude, down to earth.

    I didn't think it was fair that some ridiculed him for 'slowing' down at the end of the 100 in the Olympics.

    Not only did he set record, but in the Olympics the goal is to bring home gold for your country and he still had the 200 to run.

    It reminds me of the criticism Anderson Silva got for supposedly 'gliding' through a fight. He still won.

    And look what that criticism led to, more record breaking performances by both.

    I heard he has a cool sense of humor.
