I don't see why anyone would want to support a country that has a bad economy, corrupt politicians, and most other countries are pissed about how we run things here. Follow Canada. Seems like their the only country with LOGIC. Common sense isn't as common as you think.

Bolt near enough walking over the line in the first semi.

Glad that Dwain Chambers is out. Drug cheats should never be given another chance to compete.

I never mentioned that Bolt doped.

Do you have proof that Bolt has doped then?
