Usain Bolt is ridiculous. Literally jogged through his heat. Jamaican 1-2 for the medals me thinks

I think it's going to depend on how healthy Tyson Gay is. Anyone who has ever run track will know that those hamstring injuries are the worst thing that can happen to you.
Usain Bolt is a freak though. He is like 6'5 I think and he just gobbles that space up with his long stride. I predict he wins the gold in the 200, but for some reason I think he may not get gold in the 100. |

I just can't see anybody getting close to Bolt. He almost looks like Michael Johnson with how relaxed he runs. I was sure it'd be between the two jamaicans with the uncertainty around Gay but Powell didn't look very comfortable

Phelps is apparently a pretty big d-bag, from every account I've heard of him personally. Not that you'd really be surprised, I mean he is like 23 and has 14 Olympic gold medals.

My friends parents friend know him personally, apparently he's an ass. I have no opinion of the man myself until i meet him (doubt our paths will cross) and can make an assessment.
