No wonder Bolt retired for the season.
Gay would have beaten him for the rest of the year.

I hope the headline in the paper reads "Gay Blows Dix away"
What happened to Dix, 12.76... injury?

Pulled up about 30 meters in, looked downright flaccid.

30 meters in? and ran the remaining 70 at that fast of a pace? that makes no sense.
Looked like about 50 meters in. If he was at 9.95 or so pace then he could have slowed to over 16 second pace the second half.
nobody calls Dix the best in the world. Dix isn't a chest-beating territorial gorilla who started making excuses like 'my back hurts' and 'i'm not training hard' when he became the CONTESTED king of the jungle. Dix is the guy who could've gone pro, but decided to finish college first.
that's why the headline shouldn't read 'gay blows dix away'

Watch the replay, he pulled up pretty fast. 12.76 does seem quick because it looked to me like he just started jogging with a gimp.
Please tell me you understood what the poster meant when they mentioned that headline. Not everything is to be taken at face value.

Please read that headline out loud to yourself and think about it for a sec. Pretty funny if you ask me, and then the flaccid statement was pretty good too.. hahaha!!!

You hate to see a guy pull up lame, but a "Gay goes out hard only to see Dix limp" headline is too good to be true.
You guys seem to be milking Dix for all he's worth.
pull up or pull out?
As an alternate news headline you could go with, "Hard Charging Gay shows dix who's boss"
"Gay licks field including late-coming Dix"
"Gay whips fast-coming Jamaican"
Oh the possibilities are endless.
"Gay bolts from limp Dix"
