feck Gatlin.
Awesome that Gatlin won, nice shut the feck up for lovely audience.
Gatlin crashes the party. Was that bronze or silver?
Booo!
That was great! Ssshh
Looked like bronze to me.
Shit! To look n the positive side of it, Bolt will eventually end up with the gold after Gatlin is found guilty of doping again
Bottledit.
Damn those boos though
Great athlete though is Bolt.

It's a shame but nothing touches his legacy.
Could of got the villain at 25-33/1......thought they were ridiculous odds too. Oh well.
Victoroids.
Victoroids.
Possibly the only guy who does more drugs than me.
Ah yeah, confirmed now. He just seemed to lack that burst today.
Inabit GOAT
Nice of Justin to acknowledge Usain's goatness too.
So pleased it was Gatlin. It's time for people to wake up. A guy who has been busted before just won the world championship. Meaning either drugs don't work or it's very, very hard to get caught.
I like the fact that you already know that the dude who won silver is doping too. Has any American 100m sprinter not been found out for it?
Come on crowd, cheer the two times drugs cheat.
By the time they stop booing it'll probably be three.

You mean he only got caught twice. He'd have been a drug user for every race he's won as a pro, same as everyone.
Gutting for Bolt to end that way. I guess he's human after all. That next level speed just wasn't there tonight.
Gatlin of all people though
Gatlin of all people though
They work but not as much as people think, you can drug a donkey all you want, it won't make it a thoroughbred.
You're the most contrary person I've ever seen.
Kind of pleased for Gatlin. Would've been my choice after Bolt.
Is Bolt taking part in 4X100m ?
Yeah
The stadium would've been buzzing right now.
What's happened to Blake too? He was a legit challenger to peak bolt in 2012.
Isn't the final next Sunday?
The whole stadium? Blimey, just how much of that stuff does Gatlin's supplier have on him?
Bolt is going out at almost the right time. He's just about past his best. I think trying to win this race was worth the risk. It was always going to be downhill after Beijing.
I've moved on to van Niekerk as my new athletics hero anyway.

Justice.
His supplier is @Welsh Wonder so the answer is a hell of a lot!
Bolt was clearly ahead of Coleman on the replay, did he get unlucky on the stretch?
Actually I thought Bolt pipped the Coleman dude to Silver but yeah, nearly every sprinter who's run below 10 seconds has been caught of doping.I like the fact that you already know that the dude who won silver is doping too. Has any American 100m sprinter not been found out for it?
He can be our official honourary ambassador now.
Gutted for Bolt, if ever an athlete deserved to finish on a victory it was the greatest of them all.
Bolt probably got that bronze with what I would wildly assume was the most casual of training camps too with the two ahead probably training to obscene levels to just about beat him. Well past his peak but still could of got gold if he really cared about it(see last year....), but what an athlete, what a character, absolutely transcendent.
London was more impressive than Beijing. The pressure he was under and the field he was up against, made it more impressive for me at least. And he beat his times in Beijing.
You're the most contrary person I've ever seen.
I don't particularly care who wins, I do like Bolt, but it just clicked today. Booing for two days now, and there he comes, at 35 years of age, and shuts them up. Just an interesting story.
I also had 1.90 odds on him beating Blake in duel, so, there's that too.
