He doesn't bother me at all. He's a legend and he knows it. I'm cool with that. If you can dance and still win more power to you.

Re: Olympics
The dancing is more a way to have fun and stay lose, I think. It's never bothered me. He's been classy time and time again. He's confident, knows his ability, but he's also respectful and has a great time. Like verb said, the other racers seem to love him and have fun with him too.jwfocker wrote:durdencommatyler wrote:He's not.verb_to_trust wrote:I can't figure out whether I think Bolt is a douchebag or not.

Re: Olympics
Right before he gets on the blocks, Bolt always does the symbol for "Shh". If any other athlete in any other sport did this, I'd probably get irritated. But when he does it I think it is cool.

Re: Olympics
I saw a couple of other runners do the same. Not sure if they're copying him or what. Either way, yeah, I like his little rituals. They don't bother me at all.E.H.

Some of the overreacting going on about the Swim Shady incident is getting pretty extreme. HE SHOULD BE BANNED FOR LIFE AND STRIPPED OF ALL HIS MEDALS. RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE.
Shame on Lochte but insane and unstable people need to chill.

Re: Olympics
I've been reading the yahoo comments on his apology during lunch. A lot of them somehow connect this to the presidential race and trash their candidate of choice. Hillary=Lochte.

I love how he is saying it was very traumatic for him, yet the video of them returning to the hotel shows them laughing it up and having a good time.

Seriously. What do the candidates have to do with this? Clearly it is a present-day adminstration to blame.
