Kicking butt and taking names. Clean sweep in the women's 100.

Bolt toyed with the world's best. Should do the same in the 200.

Both should win the relays as well assuming baton stays in hand.

If I were an NFL GM or a college head coach, I'd have a permanent scout in Kingston.

youll probably get a lot of volunteers if their home base is Negril or Ochos Rios. They're in Jamaica right?

That is assuming Bolt finds his way from the streets into the stadium. I love how he just strolls in there wearing track shorts and a tank top and starts "stretching" and posing while everyone else gets pumped up. Great stuff.

I enjoyed the 21yr old girl's interview after she won. I was cheering for Jamaica.

Serious question. Would you pull the trigger on paying Bolt 15 mil/yr for 5 years to play WR for your NFL team if you were a GM, given he probably needs to be taught how to play the position? I saw that dude run his 200m heat. It looked like he was jogging and passing sprinters. Unbelievable.

If Javon Walker can get 55 million running with one leg and missing 80% of his games, I say yes. Bolt is not your average sprinter. This is a big kid with a big frame who happens to have the biggest set of afterburners on the planet. A 15 million dollar contract in the NFL is probably only guaranteed for around 6. Yes, sir.
