YOU JUST BLEW MY MIND

Not sure I'm comfortable
making the same connotation with Tyson Gay and Jeff Francouer.

Did you watch the Bolt races?
The guy is incredible. He is running at 90% effort and smashing records.
How do you know he's not running with 100% effort?
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
He taunts them during the races and celebrates while he runs.
He’s the Jose Reyes of track, except the media likes Bolt.

In fairness to the media
Jose Reyes is an immature animal
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
Did he write the same thing when Dicktorino did something similar against them?

There had been lots of comment about him slowing down at the end of races
but he seems better at that now. I see room for a few hundredths of a second improvement in the first 30m though – he doesn’t seem to begin to pull away until about 40m in, and when you are that much faster over the full distance, I reckon there could be daylight earlier.
Well he has essentially let up at the end of races.
In the 100m at least he hardly ever seems to run through the finish line so to speak, yet he breaks the WR anyway, the guy is amazing.
With his long strides, he would probably be an amazing 400/800m runners as well.
I wonder what kind of 'unknown' PED he's taking?
Did anyone see the distance between him and the 2nd place runner in the 200 meter race? Sorry. I’m just not buying this is legit. I remember Ben Johnson (Canada) and his mind blowing performances in the summer Olympics. Bolt’s on something.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

He is the lankiest guy sprinting since
Carl Lewis, and he is a fair bit taller I think. I reckon he’s just a one-off combination of talent and body shape.
His stride is something like over three yards
He is kind of freakish of body.

Are you serious? Body size alone doesn’t dictate whether a person is using PED’s. And my friend, lanky is not the word I, nor the vast majority would use to describe Bolt. His muscles are actually quite proportionate to his height.
Lanky – Ungracefully thin and tall. This, Bolt ain’t.

Well he's tall and thin
which is lanky in my book. Perhaps rangy is a better word. I just don’t see any reason to think he is juicing.
These graphical representations of this horserace never will get old.
Keep them coming. It’s all I have left.
We've got ourselves a ball club, the Mets of New York town!
yeah, this does not get old (and rightfully so),
but what’s worse, Schneider is batting .182/.275/.318/.593, or .281 wOBA.
They're coming down to the finish line
"We're investigating the investigative procedure of the investigation of Tony Bernazard"---Omar Minaya (he really didn't say it but he would"
This race to see who has the higher OBP
is really more of a marathon than a sprint. A long, tedious marathon where there are no winners only Mets fans who have to watch both these players on a nightly basis.
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
Great great great.

yeah those rally killing homers really suck
Thats why Frenchy loves the Mets because we never hit any homers

No no
He’s just unselfish. He wants the guy behind him to get those precious RsBI too.
