LONDON OLYMPICS 2012, 4X100 METERS RELAY, USAIN BOLT POWERS JAMAICA TO GOLD- CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL




LONDON OLYMPICS 2012,  4X100 METERS RELAY,  USAIN BOLT POWERS JAMAICA TO GOLD-  CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL
The Jamaican quartet set a world record with 36.84 seconds, smashing the previous mark of 37.04 seconds they set at the 2011 World championships in Daegu.
It was a typical chilly summer night at 15 deg C.  Bolt in black winter dress , woolen gloves and a monkey cap was having a ball,  as he warmed up before the race. He did the Mobot and pranced  around, always a pleasure to watch. 

Now, the Mobot is about Mo Farah--  Britain's Somalian import, who won the 5000 and 10000 metres gold.   Mo Farah, forms the letter M on his head - the Mobot celebration after a race , which has now gone viral on the internet.
The relay race boiled down to team anchors Jamaican Bolt , the world 100 metres record holder vs American Bailey, who was fifth in the 100 meters in 9.88.   Both recd the baton for the final leg at the same split second.
''It was over from there,'' Blake said.

Gay opined  ''When he got the stick, there was nothing we could do about it.''
As expected , to thunderous ovation, Bolt exploded in the anchor leg with his long easy strides, easily outpacing Bailey by five meters and finishing in 36.84 seconds .  Bolt did a blistering 9.22 leg from a standing start.
"We're not normal,"  Blake explained. "To run 36 ain't normal."
As Bolt crossed the finish line, he did the heart shape over his head, imitating the signature move of his friend, Mo Farah, who had earlier stolen Bolt’s signature  "to the world" arrow gesture. 


Mo had also done two stomach crunches ( 2 golds )  in response to Bolt's 5 press ups ( 5 golds ) after the 200 metres sprint.
Bolt was now proud owner of the three most coveted world records in men's track: the 100 meters, 200 meters and the 4x100 relay—a mere repeat of the Beijing Olympics, 4 years ago. The whole world soaked it in.
Bolt who was all smiles having just done the Mobot, lost his pearly smile when a Track Official displayed  limey quintessential pettiness, by demanding that Bolt return the yellow baton which he was holding on to, as a souvenir. 
Seeing Bolt hesitating, he switched on to racist mode and threatened to disqualify Jamaica and strip them off the gold medal.  Who has authorised this man to speak in this bullshit manner?
A grim Bolt expostulated that he just wanted a memento for Jamaica's 50th year of Independence, to no avail.  Discrimination at its best, over a worthless piece of plastic which would NOT be used again at the London Olympics.


Bolt , the greatest of track showmen, shrugged and gave the baton back. The stiff upper lip won this round.
The Eurythemics song " Sweet dreams are made of these " lost its sheen and meaning,  at such amazing discrimination.


A world beater had just been deprived of "his moment" of glory.
Bolt at this time was the cynosure off billions of eyes,  none of whom had recovered from the goose bumps. The whole stadium immediately booed at this colonial hangover. 
Even I and my family collectively booed into our TV at nearly 2 AM in the morning-- from half way around the globe, along with a million others.. 


BOOOOOOOOOOOO--
Surely Britain lost all grace in the eyes of the world.  

Just before the 100 metres dash final, the Brits had confiscated Bolt's skipping rope.   It was all about making him lose his laid back attitude and composure before a crucial race- -we all know on the behest of who. 

Tevez and Maradona can tell you what this is allabout.   I am sure it made Carl Lewis gush in glee.  In the 200 metres event however, Bolt was allowed to use his skipping rope -- or else the IOC would have got egg on their faces.


This was no way for this amazing legend to exit the world’s stage , over a cheap piece of hardware —what a cryin’ disgrace.
This was just a sordid repeat of the Beijing Olympics when IOC President Jacques fu#kin' Rogge , the Belgian, threatened to strip Usain Bolt off his world record and gold medal in the 100 metres dash, as the black man show boated before he crossed the finish line.  It was conveniently construed as disrespecting the also-rans-- read that as the white supremacist committee.
Sports columnist, Dan Wetzel, who covered the Games had given his perspective " The IOC has made billions off athletes such as Bolt for years, yet this man has to find someone to pick on".
Note: Later after the medal ceremony, after 40 minutes  the same official was ordered to return the baton to Bolt, who made his team mates sign on the baton. Bolt said. "I got it back, but it was kind of weird, because he actually told me that if I didn't give it back, I would be disqualified. That was kinda weird."

The 4 Jamaicans shrugged off this incident, high-fived each other, danced in joy , hugged and got hugged by the eager crowd-  to the delirious cheers of a sell out 80000 crowd..
After the 200 metres, level headed Sebastian Coe, a former track star and the chief of the London Olympic organizing committee, called Bolt a legend, as if to tell Jacques fu#kin’ Rogge to FO. 
For IOC President Jacques Fu#kin' Rogge, had absurdly said Bolt wouldn't reach legendary status until he's at the top "for almost 20 years" like some Olympic sailing "legends."-- drawing flak from around the globe. 

This mangy man must be put out to pasture.
When Bolt heard Rogge's remarks, he could only shrug.
"I would like to answer with a question: What else do I need to do to prove myself as a legend?" Bolt said. "World-record holder in both sprints . I've won both events twice at the Olympics. I've won world championship gold medals. I've broken the world record many times, so I don't know what else to do, really. Next time you see him, I think you should ask him what more Usain needs to do."
Bolt is now THE perfect 6 for 6 in Olympics, getting gold every time — and setting four world records in the process.
Nobody cares for Carl Lewis and his loaded comments about Bolt any more!  Carl Lewis must remember that he won 4 gold Olympic medals at the truncated Los Angeles Olympics of 1984, which the Eastern block ( half the world ) boycotted. These medals are half size.
Just do a statistics of the IMPORT MEDALS ( like Mo Farah's 2 golds  from an impoverished nation Somalia ) of the West , and you will get to know what a sham event Olympics has become. 

What is all this?  Where is the Olympic spirit? -- Oh I forgot, it went with sponsors DOW!


2012 has become ZION.


We all know how hard USA tried to IMPORT Usain Bolt , over the years, by offering sops.
''A wonderful end to a wonderful week,'' Bolt spake. '' It's always a beautiful feeling to end off like this.  I've got no more goals.  I am just like a bum ''
YIKES! 


Grace and peace!
