Yeah, I don't think you'll find many Americans who know the sport who will argue with you. Dude is a massive fraud and always will be.

I mean I get that the IOC doesn't want to get into the business of determining whose citizenship is legitimate, but if I'm gonna watch a sprinter from Bahrain, I want them to actually be from Bahrain originally or currently be living there.

The fact that you can compete for a country when neither is true is silly.

Blake isn't a cheater. He took a non banned substance that was similar to a banned substance, so they kinda split the difference.

Lol @ thinking a single one of the guys in the 100m isn't pissing purple. Gatlin is like hated poster boy for evil athlete in public mind but he just got caught. He's no different to any other.

I don't think the track is that fast. I'ld add 0.13 to each of those.

Really interesting how mixed-race South Africans are routinely coming up with finals making perfomances in this games.

If anyone knows about the SA athletics structure let us know how this is happening.

No way Bolt only runs 0.07 faster than semi when he was jogging for 30m.
