Sorry to spoil it for those usa tape delyed olympics, we are lucky in canada to have 3 live channels carrying different events live, congrats to the Jamacian team it blows me away how impressive they are against the rich countries and all the privlages they have for training and pampering. It proves why I prefer substance over style, Cheers! PS I started the thread after the semi-final, because Bolt was so impressive, we were betting what he would post in the final, and everyone at the bar picked in from 9.39 to 9.49, I believe if he wasn't protecting from false start DQ rule he could easily break 9.5

Trip #59 most of February
The live streaming kept freezing up so boo to NBC
Rob, we all know that PMs say what they have to say. But we all know how some pple in Jamaica are badmind and how losers love to discuss if a big man falls once. As for me I really wished Jamaica took all 3 medals in this race, dew to the fact russians are not participating )))
Anyways, here's a new song by Tommy Lee in honor of Usain. Phsyco remix )

What a strange thing to say...there's bad minded people everywhere...not just Jamaica!!!
None of our Jamaican friends are talking this way about Powell...NONE! Nor have I seen or heard anything in the media.
This was an incredible day for Jamaica/Jamaicans & people that so love it here...let's not ruin it with such negativity.
Mr. Bolt is one fast and classy gentleman!

Caught the NBC replay at around 11:30 after having purposely avoiding all news and this board all day. Lets not forget about Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce who also put on a show in the women's 100 meter on Saturday!

I can understand them showing events on tape delay that happen when they aren't doing a broadcast, but when one of the major events is happening during your regularly scheduled broadcast and you don't show it live, that's just crazy.
Speaking of crazy, how intense was the local reaction? I'd have to think with everyone already in a party mood, this must have started some off the charts revelry.
