Good thing Tyson Gay just ran 9.79 in Claremont.
would somebody post the comment
Like I said in another post, add 0.10 to all the men's 100m times, and they look credible for those athletes.
I don't know about the facility, but the officials...
Welcome to Rieti, Oregon.

Not sure why the OP did not do that...must have had a pollen attack before he got a chance to.

3.1 tail wind in 2009.
These all seem reasonable to me considering the massive tail winds. Tyson ran 9.69 with a legal wind. Don't know what Bolt is trying to get at here. Maybe he's slightly embarassed by his performances thus far in 2011 and is trying to make everyone think he's not as far back from these other guys.
Wow. What a whiny little brat.
All he'd have to do is say something like "Great run Tyson! Stay healthy for SOME-EVENT and we'll give the people a show" and he'd look like the classiest runner in the world.

Yeah, well feel free to use it anytime you want, it would go great with your lame commentary and lame logic on the 100m today.
No Sh!t!

Standard sprinter tool
Don't worry, I tweeted back at him and told him to quit crying and being a sore loser because people ran faster then him, He then apologized. What a chump
Maybe he was just joking around? He has a reputation as a bit of a prankster. It is very difficult to convey tone on writing.
Show some class and stop with the sweeping generalizations

he was DEFINITELY NOT joking. people must have been calling him out right after the race, and his tone suggested he was at the very least, unnerved, that people could think that times run in Eugene would cause him some concern.
I've always found the wind readings at Hayward to be suspiciously low. 10-15 mile per hour winds throughout the valley yet consistently legal winds on the track? Hmm. Seems to be the case often there that strong gusts go unrecorded.
He's got a reputation for being a prankster, but he's also get a reputation for being a barely literate, easily maniuplated scumbag.
Ok, I'm going to sound like a grumpy old fart here (I'm actually 30, f.y.i.) but I LOATHE the way young people write today in their texts, tweets, and forum comments. With the poor spelling and grammar, the lack of punctuation, and the barely intelligible streams of thought I get a headache reading some this shit. I mean, Bolt's tweet up there is so f***ed it's mind numbing.
They use certified wind gauge officials, they use various gauges, depending on who is putting on the meet, and they often use visiting wind gauge officials. That...plus the fact that you don't seem to realize that the wind gauge readings are NOT in miles per hour, makes you appear a bit of a whiny fool, doesn't it?
