Usain Bolt Wins 200m Gold, Sets World Record Time Of 19.30 Seconds At Beijing 2008 Olympic Games

Somebody Drug Test This Man Immediately
8/20/08


Usain Bolt did today what I think most people expected him to do, which is win the 200m gold in world record time. And he did exactly that, running the race in a blistering 19.30 seconds which you can see below.



Bolt became the first person to accomplish this feat since Carl Lewis did it in 1984. There's little question that anyone who wins the gold in both events is the world's fastest individual alive.

Even scarier is the fact that Bolt is all of 21, and many people believe his technique can be improved. So, in other words, expect this guy to be beating his chest as he crosses the finish line for years to come........that is if he doesn't get busted for doping first.

Now, as much as I hate to bring that up, it's totally valid. The last time we saw an individual destroy people so badly in the 100m dash, it was Ben Johnson. And remember, Ben Johnson didn't slow down at the finish line while setting a world record. Bolt also won the 200m by a mile, which is yet another reason to be concerned.

The fact is that track and field is so dirty these days, I don't trust any winner in the sport anymore at all, nor do I trust people who came in 5th, 6th, or 7th.

Do I think Usain is doping? Well, I'd like to think he isn't, seeing as he appears to be a guy who actually makes track and field kind of fun to watch. But my jaded side is much less sure, and wouldn't be shocked in the least to hear he's been cheating.

But then, these days we can pretty much ask that question about any athlete that stands head and shoulders above their peers.

Needless to say I was questioning whether or not he was using illegal substances as well. My other concern is the fact that there is not a test that can catch hGH 100% of the time, which of course is what a lot of athletes use now days.

Maybe he did win the race and obliterate the old World Records legitimately, but just like Michael Phelps and even Lance Armstrong, when you sit on top of the game either for a long period of time or you bust records at unbelievable marked times, there are going to be questions and eyebrows raised as to whether or not they have done so without any enhancing drugs.
