YES!

 

[duderon]

Wow, Ryan Bailey 9.88 (albeit wind assisted).

This is a FAST track.

Anything 2.0 m/s and under is wind legal.

 

[Vivalaraza]

WR is going at these Games.

 

[navanman]

That German pole vaulter is hot!

 

[Atrophis]

WR is going at these Games.

I hope Bolt can deliver 9.4.

I've always wondered how they can make a track fast

 

[nny]

Bolt is up next!

 

[bjaelke]

I've always wondered how they can make a track fast

Downhill

 

[Good Job Bob]

Bolt is up.

Get your diapers ready.

 

[Juicy Bob]

BOLT

I am about to mark out hard.

 

[Majine]

Bolt time.

 

[danwarb]

If Bolt and Blake have off days the 100m and relay will be competitive.

 

[LTWheels]

The cameras...

 

[Jezbollah]

I've always wondered how they can make a track fast

I think it's down to construction in relation to grip and elastisticity.

[Napoleonthechimp]

A call out for Loughborough University. Loughborough is my hometown.

 

[Kikujiro]

I hope Bolt can deliver 9.4.

I don't think I'll ever be albe to watch a human run 9.4 in my lifetime.

 

[dejay]

I think Bolt's clothing bin girl just wet her knickers.

 

[Jamie OD]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooolt!

 

[luso]

Men's Team Table Tennis, Korea won DPR Korea 3-1.

[Jezbollah]

I don't think I'll ever be albe to watch a human run 9.4 in my lifetime.

I remember being blown away by 9.9 being broken 20 years ago, and we just saw that beaten in a heat at a canter.

 

[danwarb]

A stroll.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Over 10.00

Fuck this shit!

 

[Nolan.]

Bolt doesn't look so convincing this year lets see what comes of it

 

[Withnail]

Bolt didn't even look like he was pushing that hard.

Let's see how Blake does.

 

[Jamie OD]

Don't mind him, just on a summer's day stroll.

 

[BlindCommunication]

Not reassuring at all from Bolt. I don't think he's going to win tomorrow. He's not 100% as he admitted himself and the competition is stronger than ever. I can't see past Blake atm.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Looked like he jogged most of it.

 

[Jezbollah]

He's just said he stumbled at the start.

 

[THRILLH0]

Shit, switched off with 30 to go and didn't surrender an inch.

 

[Kamakazie!]

Yep. All of the doping accusations thrown around this year are pretty toothless. All of the athletes are tested, so if they test clean but you think they're doing something that can't be detected, invent a new testing method instead of just talking in circles.

The doping talk is pointless. That numpty US coach set it all off with his baseless comments and people here with even less of a clue picked up the ball and ran with it.

They used to say that drug tests are about a year behind the dopers. Not sure if that's still the case but it wouldn't be surprising. I imagine it's hard to test for something you don't know exists.

53 Feet!!

She counted 53!!

And when you know it exists, samples can always mysteriously go missing.

Exactly. Either the screening catches the offenders or it doesn't. No point speculating and devaluing athlete's amazing achievements.

 

[Mecha_Infantry]

Ex football (soccer to the plebs) player Gemili is coming on!

Come on son, TEAMGB!

 

[dejay]

He's just said he stumbled at the start.

Yeah, noticed he did.

 

[Mr Cola]

Gemili could be useful

 

[Good Job Bob]

Powell up now.

 

[nny]

Powell has something on his chin.

 

[Keyser Soze]

I love whoever is DJing the athletics

 

[Nolan.]

Don't break yourself Asafa

 

[John Dunbar]

what's that thing on powell's chin?

 

[Juicy Bob]

Good lad, Gemili!

 

[KingItachi]

Why are you guys expecting Bolt to go all out in qualifying.

 

[Mecha_Infantry]

Gwan Gemili!

Great start..just need to continue with the training and RIo will be great for him

 

[killer_clank]

GEMILI!

 

[Good Job Bob]

Wow, great run by Gemili.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Great start by Gemili

 

[Atrophis]

Wow Gemili is prett damn good huh?
