I watched it live here in Russia last night about 1 am. I feel so sorry for Asafa, looks he was hurt real bad, first stumbled on the start and then just stopped running... I guess jamaican tabloids are getting ready to eat him alive, especially after the story with Yendy...
They may not have had it live in the States, but it's constantly be replayed on the news this morning. Fantastic performance!

The reaction to Powell's injury has been exactly the opposite. Maybe the tabloids in Russia are eating him alive in the press, but the Jamaican Prime Minister's statement in the Jamaica Gleaner speaks for feelings of many Jamaicans:
"We thank God Almighty for our athletes. Thank you Father and continue to guard us with your mighty hand. One love," she said. Simpson Miller also had sympathy for the other Jamaican in the race, Asafa Powell, who pulled up before completing the race.
"We should now give him our strength and our love."
A big up to all the Jamaican athletes!
