9.86 secs for Bolt in men's 100 semifinals. It is going to be a fast final in about an hour.

1. Not only is the man Fast

but from what i can tell he is one hell of a good person to boot

[malaise]

3. He's a lovely human being

I knew that when he false started at the World Champs a few years ago - no fuss, no nothing - he just walked away.

He's looking good. Still I'm a wreck for this one. I started feeling better after the heats but now that the final is here I need some masala peanuts

Gatlin and Blake in as well - will be a cracker

8. I"m proud to be a fellow human being

My word for Bolt is Awesome

[malaise]

10. There goes Michael Johnson's record

Wow the Saffie Wayde van Niekerk breaks the 400 record. He slaughtered the field Merritt, and James.
Damn! I am speechless.

6. Not in a few hours

In a little over an hour

7. Sorry.

4. Gatlin went 9.94

He let up at the end too, but didn't look like he had as much room left on the throttle as Bolt.

I think Bolt runs 9.75 and Gatlin runs 9.83.

5. Canada's Andre De Grasse did 9.92 and he was looking around at the end. Hopefully we get a medal.

The first one for canadian men in these olympics.

9. Yes, an Olympic medal in the men's 100m would be a satisfying achievement

Go De Grasse!
