: The world's fastest man has done it AGAIN!!! MediaTakeOut.com just learned that Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt just broke the World Record for the 200 meter race this morning.
That means not only does he have the gold medals in the 100 and 200 meter races, he also has the world record time in both. AMAZING
Here's how the NY Times is reporting it:
he dramatic ascendance of Usain Bolt as the world’s greatest sprinter continued Wednesday night at the Beijing Olympics as he left another group of elite runners far behind in setting a world record in the 200 meters and winning his second gold medal. Having obliterated the world record in the 100 on Saturday, he is the first man to win the 100 and 200 at the same Olympics since Carl Lewis in 1984.Starting in Lane 5, Bolt took the lead in the first 50 meters and won in devastating fashion, pulling away from the field and winning by several meters in a time of 19.30. Michael Johnson had held the record of 19.32, set in 1996 at the Atlanta Games.
“I’m shocked; I’m still shocked,” Bolt said. “I have been aspiring to the world record for so long.
THEY NEED TO STOP BEING BIAS AND SHOW THEM GIVING THEM THE MEDAL. THEY SHOW WHEN U.S. GETS A MEDAL BUT WANT SHOW OTHERS. THEY PISSED OFF AT BOLT CUZ HE CELEBRATE BEFORE THE END OF THE RACE SHOWING THAT NO ONE WILL CATCH HIM. HAHAHAHAHA THE GUY BE SKIPPIN AND SHIIT WAVING AT THE CROWD, POUNDIN HIS CHEST LIKE 2O METERS AWAY FROM THE FINISH LINE HAHAHAHAHA
I BET NO ONE WILL SNATCH HIS GOLD CHAIN OFF HIS NECK AND RUN. CRACK HEAD GET HIS ASS WHOOPED!!
Jamaica to the world so all u haters teck way unun self. Rambreed hear this Bolt dont need dope like ure USa Guys thats the reson why unun get left on the field not once not twice many times and we a go show unun that jamaican's dont need to dop them self the yam and banana here is good enough. 2 gold medals in one day Ka Boom teck it to dem jamaica to the world we a show unun say we little but we talawa. all unun a try unu cant stop we.
USA needs to get their act together.... Dont be surprised if this guy comes up positive for doping. The sprints he's doing is unreal. Congrats to bolt on his performance, but big brother is watching. Thought the same thing hen Marion was blastin everyone. If he is exposed for doping it will be the biggest upset. USA will rise again in 2012... believe that
rawbreed, why would u say that about a bro? What about michael phelps is he cheating as well? If anything Michael phelps is getting all the attention and usain bolt isn't get that much for his achievements.
I am very glad to see Usain Bolt do his thing in the 100 and the 200, but let's just hope that we don't find out years later that he is another Marion Jones. Back in her prime, she was effortlessly blistering her competition in the same manner as Usain did in the 100 and 200 by larger margins only to find out later that she had help from performance enhancing substances to make her run that fast. So you better believe that the governing eyes of the track & field world will be looking very carefully and closely at Usain now that he has basically come of nowhere running like that.
Kokokisses I notice you said "yo boy Crawford."
Let me just correct you...I am 100% Jamaican and while I have nothing against the US athletes Crawford is mos def not my boy because he seemes a bit too cocky for me like he didn't know Usain was gonna whip all their asses today! The lil light skinned US boy is Spearmon and he and Usain are friends and they said that and they always clowning around. He literally went and lifted Usain off the ground after the race. Its all love and good spirits from him, even though sadly he got disqualified for crossing the lanes.
I congratulate anyone who trains as hard as the future olympians do, but did he have to be so arogant. The same way you beat the last record holder is the same way someone is gonna beat you. He did his thing, but damn arrogant ass.
I could have sworn when he was asked how he ran so fast, he replied, "I run from lion, tiga and sometime, cobra snake. I fass like chetah."
Anyone else hear that or was it just me and my husband? LOL Na.. it ain't no racism, it's just funny as [EXPLETIVE]....
Ooohh.. REAL JAMAICAN Oooh... BORN JAMAICAN!!! Bumboclaat!! i'm so [EXPLETIVE] elated rite now!! Two gold medals back to back.. woi big up BOLT AND WALKER!! Yall are doing our country well. WE HAVE ARRIVED AND [EXPLETIVE] YALL WHO SAID HE CELEBRATED TOO EARLY IN THE 100M... JAMAICA TO THE [EXPLETIVE] UNIVERSE... WE ARE UNIVERSAL!! Ooohh..REAL JAMAICAN Oooh BORN JAMAICAN!!
Congrats to Usain and all of the other runners. Regardless of if you won a medal or not being on an Olympic team is a big accomplishment. I would also like to "big up" my girl "Sanya Richards"..Although you ran for the US yardies everywhere still love you! Continue striving for the best!
---------------------------------
Sexycyclopedia..I don't think "xMzSarcasticx" meant any harm by what she said. You know how West Indians like to say proverbs and make jokes..I wouldnt be surprised if Usain said that..lol Its actually a little funny.
someone is mad at NBC because they are showing VOLLEYBALL right now..as if they are "hating" on INSANE BOLT...lol
They will show it tonight..there is a "bit" of time difference from here and CHINA! They dont air this stuff live...You will be able to see the JUICED ONE in all his glory tonight..never fear.
Yall, Please stop the foolishness! I pray to God that NBC shows the game but if they don't I wont be mad at them. They cant show EVERYTHING. There are way too many games taking place. If you want to see clips of other sports go to nbcolympics.com. They said that they'll mostly focus on airing games that have US winnings. To me, it makes sense esp. since most countries are doing the same thing for their team.
Once again the haters come out. Why can't we just say congratulations and be done with it? The Olympics are there for everyone to compete and win - the USA can't win everything, it would get boring real fast. The real issue that people seem to have is that these people aren't from big countries. I know that it's hard to understand how people from a little Island can achieve such stature, but it comes with discipline and less distractions than there are in this country.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE ATHLETES ON THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS!!!
mlk...that is why the IOC will not address the DOPING issue JUST YET..this is great for them...and for the news media...like you said people get tired of the USA winning all the time..we love the cinderella story.
No one has an issue about people being from big countries...CUBA and other small nations are having a great olympics..but the cheating in the sprinting event is pretty much disgusting. I thought after Marion Jones people would be on their best beahavior..but i guess they feel like "ITS OUR TURN TO CHEAT"...two wrongs dont make a right.
*****A New York Daily News this week published a story authored by BALCO founder Victor Conte, who knows the steroids culture and has some credibility, as saying Bolt and the highly successful Jamaica sprinters should be drug-tested and that he has alerted the World Anti-Doping Agency. While having no evidence of Jamaican juicing, Conte points to the small, poor nation's absence of an anti-doping mechanism and the fact records are "falling like rain."
To win on a given day is one thing..but there is just but so fast ANY HUMAN CAN GO NATURALLY..that limit has be reached years ago..probably in the time of CARL LEWIS...now its all juice and athletes are so arrogant in their dishonesty its shameful.
NBC will show the race...what else is there to watch in the competition? seriously..and like someone said..it is in their intrest to FOCUS on American athletes..THIS IS AMERICA.! I know it can be confusing while in brooklyn. =)
@Rudeboy" You said
"People: let me educate you'll on this. NBC paid 900 million to the rights for this game. It cannot be shown on any medium (youtube, or other internet site, espn, etc),unless NBC give them permission;;; they have this locked down. Advertiser pays a huge amoneyof money to have the commercial aired during the track event and that is why NBC decides to air these races during peak times (delayed). They know that regardless of whether you know the result, we will all sit our ash up to watch it tonight. Its basically comes go to company wants to market the products to the masses and NBC promise to deliver by delaying the race until everyone and their aunt gets home form work/school/baby daddys home to watch it. Its not right or wrong, black or Jamaica or the USA....its money"
You are so correct.... that is why we should have all gone across the bordger to Canada or to the Caribbean. My friends in Barbados are seeing the events live, not via NBC and the crap they are doing.
Remember the United States based Jamaican track coach Trevor Graham? He coached/provided Balco drugs to Marion Jones,Justin Gatlin, etc. back in the late 1990s/early 2000s.
Most of the Jamaican athletes are coached by two shady characters. Stephen Francis(Asafa Powell/Shelly Ann Fraser/Melaine Walker) and Glen Mills (Usain Bolt).
Mmmmm. Makes you wonder.
BoiPussy, OBVIOUSLY Its worth "trippin' over otherwise you wouldn't be commenting on it! HA!..As far as the "newly freed slave" comment goes..You sound like your missing a few brain cells!! LMAOOO..Your proud of Obama being the first black President but talking all that ish?.. GO KILL YOURSELF! I think the cuum is clogging brain. :)
What a Idiot is bringing OBAMA into this?
I think you bolster what BOI is saying JAMAICA is a goaless nation TRUE!..while they celebrate a JUICED up track star saying they "RUN THINGS"....black americans goal is to make OBAMA the leader of the FREE WORLD. you think were were JEALOUS? hahahah NO...its just shameful that you guys are invested in a bunch of cheating fame whores.
Prime Minister Golding....or Barack Obama...who is more important and relevant in the world? Even as a SENATOR barack has more power than that dude!
Boi Said it best you people are goaless! wandering in the wilderness.
How many of you actually live in or are citizens of JAMAICA in the first place? thats whats REALLY HILARIOUS!!!
Part Time Americans! pretty lame
Celebrate anything about Jamaica but these CHEATERS. I think the SCOTCH BONNET PEPPER has more worth than these cheats!
WHAT AN IDIOT>...how smart of you to POINT OUT that MARION JONES had a Jamaican coach...HAHAHAHAH fools Look where it got her!
That also picks apart the claim that Jamaicans are to poor or naive to know anything about Performance Enhancing Drugs.
Find another athlete to support? do Jamaicans compete in anything other than track and field? USA even had a black dude win a gold medal in swimming..You think that with all that beach and water surrounding them Jams would do that first. Guess NOT..
Jean Grey seems to love children seeing that pic is a confirmation r u related to michael jackson by ny chance bitch ??? nywhooo i sed everytime u se Obama or disprespect Jamaicans u r disrespecting ur own future president b/it/c/h...nywhoo enuff of u go take ur pills...Go Usian and bun dem...Jamaica stand up...what!!!peace out im outta here....
RUDEBWOY SAYS " YOU MAY CALL HIS CELEBRATION BASHFUL"....BASHFUL? do yo know that that word means? Bashful means "SHY" or "TIMID" there is nothing SHY ABOUT JUICEBOY. Thanks for proving how illiterate you are..
were you searching for the word "BRASH" meaning "COCKY" or "ARROGANT"? Don't worry I'll educated you for free. But what your small mind can comprehend is beyond my control.
PUMA sold two million sneakers in an hour?...and you're still a broke uneducated fool. You have bigger concerns than PUMA pimping Insane Bolt...maybe they paid for his drugs...what a nice return on the "investment". ;-)
IGGIE, KRS1, BUSTA, HEAVY D, PEPA, SPECIAL ED, CANIBUS, CHUBB ROCK, & PRODIGY.

BOLT HAS INDEED SET THE STANDARD FOR SPRINTERS FOR YEARS TO COME. THE JAMAICANS TRACK TEAM IS NOW A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH AND THE USA SPRINTERS KNOW IT. IT IS JUST A FRIENDLY RIVALRY BUT THE FANS MAKE IT SEEM LIKE IT IS MORE THAN WHAT IT IS.
CONGRATS TO JAMAICA AND BOLT AND THE GIRL THAT RAN THE 400M HURDLES. GO TEAM USA!
Congrats to USAIN. Congrats to Jamaica! Much love from MICHIGAN, USA!

Rudebwoy are you still bragging about your windows? I dont live in brooklyn but ..they probably do have a rat problem...all those jamaican cab drivers spitting oxtail bones all over the place...hahahahah ;-)
Jam yes jamaicans are respected world wide..not like americans like Martin Luther King.Elephant Man won the noble peace prize didnt he?
Wait isnt Colin Powell Jamaican? Oh my bad another example of people leaving Jamaica and coming to America to make something of themselves. Sorry I tried to help. <shrug>
The new dance should be the steroid bounce.. Needle Dem Needle Dem...Needle Needle Needle Needle Dem.
Yes bolt has set a new standard in the age of Performance Drugs. Before it was shamed..now the standard is "LET THE BEST DRUGGIE WIN"
@ glam1922.......its all luv, its never that serious, the jamaicans ain't got too much to celebrate so that get really hyped when they finally got somethin to cheer about.u see how they're commin out the closet so to speak, so they will go with this till its no longer news.personally, i don't have a problem with those people, but they are quite sensitive and have enormous pride about their country (at least someone does these days, lol.)i like their food, the women( i layed out plenty of them,lol), and thats really bout it.and maybe the parade on eastern parkway.
BIG UP..To Usian Bolt you make jamaicans and fellow west indian people around the caribbean pround..To all the people thats hating on Usian Bolt and jamaican people its a shame we cannot have unity amount us...you people think that you get any special treating for dissing jamaicans or afro-american..you lying to urself..you still goin to be called a ni@@ga behind ur and in face by the power structure...no matter what nationalty ...west indian/afro-american/africans..stop all that [EXPLETIVE] we black in everybody eyes..not going to get treated any better because you afro-american/west indian/african just remember that....once again Big Up Usian Bolt..
How you know the man on steriods? He was tested on several occasion before and after the race.. You basicaly just slandering the the man name with assumptions with no prove to back it up..beside using fallen athletes such as marion jone and ben johnson to support ur claim..It's like for example assuming every arab or someone with arab descendant is terrorist..every black person(young black male) you see is going to commit a crime or thinking of something devious just because of a few bad apples..assumptions is a dangerous think..
Didn't mean to defile anybody by calling them West Indian..you mean the british who happen to be in west indies sea/terriroty(along with french,spanish..etc)I called him west Indian because jamaica is saturated in the west indies sea/territory area.. I'm also leaving out alot cultural and historical things also..that just overview...plz stay on the topic..
awwwww HELL NAWW...US 4 X 100 M RELAY TEAMS FOR BOTH MEN AND WOMEN WERE DQ'D IN THE HEATS!!!! THEY BOTH DROPPED THE BATONS....A VOODOO SPELL HAS BEEN PLACED ON THE USA TRACK TEAM!!
ON A HIGH NOTE....THERE IS A SWEEP IN THE 400M RACE WITH AMAERICAN LASHAWN MERRITT WINNING AND WHYTE CHOCOLATE JEREMY WARINER FINISHING 2ND!!
CONGRATS AGAIN JAMAICA!
Glad the 400 Meters Men did a 1-2-3. LaShawn did his thing. I gotta get an IP changer so that I could see the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) show events live.
Lets see what Americans David Oliver and David Payne are gonna do against the black Cuban in the Men's 100 Meters Hurdles coming up in a few minutes.
@Rudebwoy,
Jessie didn't say anything about Obama not being black enough. He said that Obama is scolding blacks so that he can seem tough on his own people. Whites will see that and think that he isn't going to give blacks special treatment.
Obama is doing that crap because he knows that blacks will vote for him no matter how he treats us.
@ImNotImpress,
You just dont know. I live in the New York City area. You wouldn't believe some of the stuff that comes out of black Jamaican mouths.
Black American are lazy this. Black Americans are too that. I hate Black Americans. It's crazy.
I stay out of the Crown Heights and Flatbush areas of Brooklyn. I don't wanna hear that crap.
A GYAL Jeangrey make me tell u straight u no know u can get gunshot how u a diss my bloodclatt people just shout your mouth and go "suck your madda"AS MOVADO SAY IM SO SPECIAL,IM SO SPECIAL WHEN U USA WAS CHEATING GREATS LIKE OTTEY AND CUTBERT AND EVEN ASAFA powell [EXPLETIVE] did u remember when mr john drumond lay down on the track and got asafa disqualified so f*ck the hater
OK now i have to get dark. Instead of all the cursing y not let us celebrate the great victory. Jamaicans are doing great worldwide, once we put our mind to something we go for it. It is so sad that u think that way. Can we get pass the barbarianism. We are trying our atmost best to make our mark in the world. USA is a big country we know that, we are a small island we know that. It is not our fault that USA keepings falling short of staying ahead of the competition. I feel it for u. I pray for u. So just remain calm. And stop beating on us, it is not our fault u cant be like us. We are coming out on top of the world, as i said to make our mark. So leave us be
OK JAMAICA IT IS YALL TIME TO SHINE BUT THE USA STILL LEADS IN MEDAL COUNT FOR TRACK AND FIELD. THE MEN USA 400M WAS ABLE TO GET SWEEP AND FINISH 2ND AND 3RD IN 110 M HURDLES AND SHOULD BE FAVS TO WIN THE 4 X 400M RELAYS ON SAT. BARRING ANOTHER DISASTER.
YALL HEAR ABOUT THE IOC COMING DOWN ON BOLT FOR HIS ANTICS...
CONGRATS JAMAICA...CELEBRATE YOUR HEARTS OUT BECAUSE YOU DESERVE IT BUT REST ASSURED 2012 USA COMING BACK STRONG!!!
AFTER A MONTH NO ONE WILL REMEMBER THESE RACES ARE CARE BECAUSE THE USA HAS BIGGER THINGS COMING UP LIKE FOOTBALL SEASON!!! AND THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION...
BEIJING (AP) - IOC president Jacques Rogge criticized Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt on Thursday for showing a lack of respect to other competitors after his record-breaking gold medal performances in the 100 and 200 meters.
Usain Bolt sets another world record in the 200m final. Americans Shawn Crawford and Walter Dix get silver and bronze, respectively. "That's not the way we perceive being a champion," Rogge said.
The International Olympic Committee chief hailed Bolt's stunning achievements in the two sprints, comparing him to American great Jesse Owens, but said Bolt should have cut out the look-at-me flaunting and acknowledged the other athletes.
"I have no problem with him doing a show," Rogge said in an interview with three international news agency reporters. "I think he should show more respect for his competitors and shake hands, give a tap on the shoulder to the other ones immediately after the finish and not make gestures like the one he made in the 100 meters."
Having built a huge lead in Saturday's 100 final, Bolt slowed, glanced around with arms outstretched and pounded his chest before crossing the finish line in a world record time of 9.69 seconds.
"I understand the joy," Rogge said. "He might have interpreted that in another way, but the way it was perceived was 'catch me if you can.' You don't do that. But he'll learn. He's still a young man."
Bolt, who turned 22 on Thursday, stormed to another one-sided victory Wednesday night in the 200, breaking Michael Johnson's 12-year-old record of 19.32 seconds and lowering the mark to 19.30.
Bolt made little effort to congratulate the other runners as he wrapped himself in a Jamaican flag and set off on a solo victory lap. Swaying to the reggae music on the stadium loudspeakers, he walked barefoot around the track, putting his face inches from a TV camera, raising an index finger and yelling, "I am No. 1! I am No. 1!"
"He still has to mature," Rogge said. "I would love him to show more respect for his competitors. That's not the way we perceive being a champion. But he will learn in time. He should shake hands with his competitors and not ignore them. He'll learn that sooner or later. But (he's) a great athlete, of course."
Bolt became the first man since Carl Lewis in 1984 to win the 100 and 200 golds at a single Olympics, and the only man ever to do it by breaking world records in both. Owens completed the 100-200 sweep at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, adding golds in the long jump and relay.
"Bolt is in another dimension in sprints," Rogge said. "Bolt must be considered now the same way like Jesse Owens should have been in the 1930s. Bolt has a bigger edge than Owens on his rivals. Of course, Owens had the long jump too, so you can't compare people. If he maintains that in the future, Bolt will be someone that probably leaves a mark like Jesse Owens."
Bolt gets a chance to make a deeper mark in these Games on Friday in the 4x100 relay, which NBC will feature in Friday night's prime time coverage.
For Bolt, it's a chance at a third gold medal in these games and possibly another world record.
But as the party wound down on Bolt's 200-meter win, his emotional high downshifted into a lower gear. The dancing and preening slowed, and Bolt allowed his mind to settle on more relaxing thoughts.
"I just want to chill out. I just want to sleep," he said. "I wish I was in sandals right now, just taking a weekend."
No, Bolt didn't want to head toward a white sandy Jamaican beach. But he could start getting his mind ready for the relay race.
"Right now I'm just trying to relax and just really prepare for the 4 by 1," he said. "I have one more to go and I know the guys are really looking forward to it. I'm really trying to refocus again and get one more gold medal."

I AGREE WITH THIS MAN. GREAT FEAT BUT SHOW SOME HUMILITY.
Congratulations to Usain Bolt for breaking the world record! Congratulations to all of the Jamaican track and field runners... you guys definitely have been killing it out there on the track!!
I am also equally proud of all of my United States runners! The track and field portion of the Olympics has had me literally glued to the television.
@ jeangrey How many of you actually live in or are citizens of JAMAICA in the first place? thats whats REALLY HILARIOUS
i live in jamaica bitch, why are u african americans so badmind and grudgeful? no wonder u ppl life are lame and full of [EXPLETIVE], i have american friends who are white and they are nothing like u african americans, they have class unlike u shitholes...
@boipussy bitch u must be talking from ur ass cuz what ur saying is bull [EXPLETIVE], u need to come to jamaica and get some fuk from one of the jamaican men and that will keep ur stupid ass quiet for awhile...all u ppl do is hate and talk non sense, go look a job and stop being a stupid whore or better yet get an education and read more about jamaica
JAMAICANS DON'T CONSIDER THEMSELVES BLACK. ON JOB APPLICATIONS THEY PUT OTHER FOR RACE, IT'S NO SUPRISE YOU COCONUTS ARE SUPPORTING PHELPS, BECAUSE YA'LL LOVE THEM WHITE FOLKS AND WHEN U LEAVE THE ROOM YOU STILL A N####R TO WHITE PEOPLE, U.S.A. 4-LIFE. YANKEE BOYS RUN THIS COUNTRY REMEMBER THAT, HATERS.
Rudebowy, in my very first sentence, I said "I am very glad to see Usain Bolt do his thing in the 100 and the 200," point one. Reading is very fundamental. Point two, with the dark cloud of doping in sports, Track & Field seems to always get the keenest eye of scrutiny especially when you have the big stars doing amazing things like Usain did, that's where I was coming from. I wasn't insenuating that Usain did anything wrong. I did say however, "I HOPE he didn't".... big difference, because I liked what I saw in his performance. Point three, it doesn't matter where an athlete trains, drugs have found their way into every corner and crevice of this place we call the world. Surely no one is that naive to believe otherwise, not even you. Now you go and chill the fck out. Again, way to go Usain!
samech Flag post nice, congrats!!!!!!!FYI- he is also wearing GT colors......big up to my guyanese massive..........hopefully they show his win tonight. He should run again and win a third!!
up above i take it your are a fake GT as in guyanese where in the hell he is wearing gt colours , haven't seen any white or red in his uniform or any other jamican athlete uniforms
man i got's to gave it to the yardies , but im equally piss at the usa , who don't know how to hand off a baton i have seen 5 ,6 ,7 yr old handing off stick at the JO games , what the hell is up with usa men and women , when you put your spikes on and the gun goes off , come prepare because the nex man or woman wants it just as bad as you , take no prisoners and the jamaican came to will regardless of who the coaces are and where the athletes train be it america or jamaica .....
doubt the ladies are on any form of drugs
i'm wondering if usa are affraid to compete , too many excueses , had a cramp , i pulled up , GAy is the only one i think is hurt , can;t fake like that , it 's very important to remail injury free leading up to the big games , you must streach and warm up correctly can't cheat your body if the body is not warm up , you will find out , i root for any and every one , i luv jam. and i luv usa , i even wanted to see my fellow guyanese out there but they weren't as hungry as the others who made it trough ..
Go Cuba
EVERY COCONUT HAS HIS DAY-YANKEE BOYS RUN THIS COUNTRY, THEY SAY WE CROOKS, WHO DEAL MORE DRUGS THAN JAMAICANS TALK ABOUT THAT, REASON U NOT IN JAIL LIKE US BECAUSE YOUR AZZ GET DEPORTED, HATERS, IF YOU LIVE IN THE U.S. HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT OUR TRACK TEAM 2, INSTEAD OF RUBBIN IT IN OUR FACES, WE DON'T LIKE THAT S##T, WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND BELIEVE THAT PLAYA, I MEAN HATERS. THAT'S THE LAST SHINE U GOING 2 HAVE.
@silky1700
Sorry but Yankee boy can't run [EXPLETIVE] unless you running from the police. You're coming from a country where black people get the shittiest end of the stick. Black Yankee boys fill the prisons. Black Yankee boys get pulled over by the cops, beaten up and nobody cares. If black yankee boys ran anything then you wouldn't have the Jena 6, a black man would have been the president long ago, black issues would get more coverage on MSM, you wouldn't be dropping dead like flies in the ghettos. You wouldn't have to worry about WWB (Walking While Black). So sorry but Yankee boy run NOTHING
@silky1700
Our turf??? I think you're living in a very distorted reality. Black Yankee don't own the dirt between their toes. That's why black yankee gotta be classified as Black Americans and African Americans while white people get called Americans. If you owned or run [EXPLETIVE] it wouldn't be like that.
@ Silk1700
where am I a [EXPLETIVE]? oh in the USA where black yankee boy supposedly run things. oh really. Heads Up pal, British don't run the islands check your history books. When black yankee boys were not able to break free WE WERE while you still singing "yes massa". We come to your country to take your jobs and your scholarships then return home and fan ourselves with all the paper you too stupid to get.
Can't we all just get along? LOL
Congrats to "lightning" Bolt or "Dead" Bolt if he isn't clean as a whistle. You know the US will be demanding tests to try and disqualify Bolt if they can.
BTW to "Notimpressed". Everyone I know of in the West Indies is fine with the name West Indian so I am not sure what your prob is exactly.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT:
In a joint statement issued by the presidents of the World Anti-Doping Agency, International
Olympic Committee (IOC), and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), the
following foods have been placed on the list of banned substances issued by WADA: yam, green
bananas, cocoa, dasheen, breadfruit, ackee and saltfish, mackeral run down, turned
cornmeal, Jerked pork and chicken, escovietched fish Malta, Supligen, Milo (said to be the
food drink of Champions), Horlicks and coconut oil. Jamaicans seem to become extremely
athletic on diets with these foods. Coming out of WADA labs, one of the major banned
substances from Jamaica is the Cassava root, a high fibre, high starch tuber root eaten in
Jamaica. It has properties which are said to enhance endurance and cause muscle fibres to twitch
faster. This comes after extensive study of the diets of the Jamaican athletes which took part in
the Beijing 2008 Olympic games. Though natural foods it is felt by WADA that these foods
because of their unique properties give Jamaican athletes an unfair advantage. High
concentrations of carbohydrates and other naturally occurring substances are said to be
mimicking the effects of Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs). Some foods have been noted to
in particular cause an unusual increase in the male hormone testosterone. As such WADA has
seen it fit to add these foods to the list of banned substances. Given the sensitivity of this issue,
Jamaican athletes participating in the current Olympic games underway in Beijing have not been
banned but must submit to these new restrictions within the next two years. Two substances
which have been discovered in testing of the Jamaican foods are “yamstenine”, a yam derivative
and “cocosterone”, a derivative of the coco plant. These substances have been found to mimic
nandrolone and the blood booster EPO, hence the preliminary banning of the substances
themselves and the banning of the foods they derive from.
This ruling will also affect other Caribbean and some African countries which share similar diets
as Jamaicans.
Jinny i hope youre joking...
"i have white friends better than you" Talk about reaching..on so many levels. First of all no true JAMAICAN with history or rasta trust DEM so youre a sell out if thats the case.
Rudey did I give you permission to argue with other people? Don't play with me boy!!!!!! =^D
Yeah I was thinking...Jamaica isnt really known for coconuts..i think thats just a SLUR about carribean people..I think more of ackee. or breadfruit..
