Being an athlete saying look at me...I'm a hero is a very small accomplishment in life...real heroes dont blow their own trumpet or demand the tax payer to fund their heroics...I just dont rate Olympic athletes... Smiley Smiley

He has got to be the coolest elite athlete of all time


But why did he slow down?

Maybe he'll be paid big money if he does break the world record at some other event?

At the Olympics he doesn't get paid.



Whoever broke the world record would have received $100,000.



OK thanks - didn't know that.
Have you got a link?

Maybe Usain would have got $1 million to break it at another event.
We don't know what really goes on behind the scenes.

I heard that Shane Warne is trying to get him to play 20/20 cricket here.
Imagine the crowds that will turn up for that &
Usain is a great fast bowler.

There is no merit in self glorification and promoting these kinds of people as heroes who only seek glory for themselves...its called pride, arrogance and being full of yourself... Smiley Smiley
