    Default Usain Bolt just beat his world record with 9.58

    The man is a legend. Blew his amazing Olympic performance away. And he still pulled up at the end.

    i wonder if it'll eventually turn out he's on steroids, like ben johnson. i hope not, because he seems like a good fellow, and his performances are dazzling. but it's an unfortunate effect of the current day and age that any truly amazing athletic performance immediately raises red flags...

    I saw the semi final he were in and nobody was near him, he were looking over and took the foot of the gas, missed the final but caught it on the news this morning, like a greyhound at a trap that guy..

    The guy who came in second would have gotten the world record also. That's a bitch to run the race of your life only to get beaten like that and by a guy who let up at the end. Bolt is indeed the man. I just hope he isn't on the juice and hiding it.

    doesn't it seem a bit suspicious to you guys that he's blowing everyone away like that? i hope he's just a freak of nature speedster, but i can't help but be suspicious.

    don't be intellectually lazy, dy. almost all of the other sprinters are black too. and not like sprinting is free from doping. think about it...

    a while back, canadian world record holder ben johnson was found to have used steroids.

    in 2004, several sprinters--greek and american--were found to have used performance enhancing drugs. one, tim montgomery, was the 100 meter record holder at the time.

    just recently, 6 jamaican sprinters, including bolt's training partner, were found to have used methylhexaneamine.

    doesn't mean bolt did anything. in fact, he is testing negative so far. but when everyone is running around 9.8, then suddenly a dude is running 9.6, and its happening just when the truth is coming out about the vast number of people in olympic and professional sports using performance enhancing drugs, doesn't that sound just a tad bit funny to you? in beijing he ran his 200 meter in 19.30 when his previous record was 19.67. doesn't that raise red flags?

    hope they are unwarranted, though.

    this article sums it up nicely

    i would be massively disappointed if he was doping.

    he gives the impression he trains lightly and lives on a diet of fried chicken.

    he doesn't come across as some dope fiend.

    they do random testing between competitions, maybe he just is that good, and better than any US or UK sprinter.

    i would be too! he does come across as a good fellow and perhaps he's just an extraordinarily gifted sprinter. and for the matter, there's not even a smidgen of proof that he's been doping.

    but i've become really cynical about this due to the recent news coming from professional baseball. basically, the sport (unlike most other professional sports) did not have an adequate testing regime in place. so it's now coming out that between 1990 and 2002, many more players were doping than anyone believed. every time there's a revelation, the media and people generally say: "why can't these juicers be more like ______, who has achieved so much without apparent use of performance enhancing drugs?" then it comes out that ______ was also juicing.

    Marion Jones and Tim Montgomery were also on drugs.

    But to say that Bolt is, is like saying that Michale Phelps is on drugs and hiding it. Because they both are the best at what they do by far. But since great athletes like Bonds and Mark and Sammy Sosa were on the juice I can't help but understand why Slav would be suspicious. It has become all too common.

    In my opinion I don't think that with Usain Bolt that is the case. It was time that someone stepped up and improved the discipline.

    And if I may, his performances in Bejing like these in Berlin were inspiring. And since Bejing he has become a darling of the public. Might have something to do with it, all that positive energy and adrenalin doing it's magick. The fact is that Bolt is only going to get faster since he's only 23 years old, and I'm really looking forward to it. Also I think that his speed could be linked to his build and his long legs, but again I think he will improve along with his technique in the years to come. No juice needed.

    i'm just kind of at the point where any out-of-the-ordinary sports performance is immediately suspect to me. it seems like every day there's a new revelation.

    marion jones also passed all her tests...she was only caught because the investigation into barry bonds uncovered her name on BALCO invoices.

    tbh i think should let athletes take drugs if they want to.

    just something else to police and control.

    not as suspicious as i am of bolt, because he wasn't breaking records by the same gaudy amounts. but i also wouldn't exactly be shocked either, if it turned out he was juicing. soooooo many people have been. and probably loads more that are just clever enough to not get caught. tbh, at this point, i wouldn't be shocked to hear anyone is...

    what does it really matter? if he used juice or not?
    i always thought ben johnson's record should have stood. steroids or not.

    it's not a feat of human ability at that point, it's a feat of technology.

    besides, these things are really bad for you, and allowing it basically tells all those daydreaming kids out there: "go ahead, ruin your life for the almost imperceptible chance you might actually end up a star."

    but of course the war against doping is kind of a rear-guard action. there will always be new PEDs that beat the piss tests...
