Justin Gatlin upsets Usain Bolt


I was bummed, as was the crowd. Usain's one of the most beloved athletes I've ever seen. Also, one of the greatest.

This final loss will be forgotten, his greatness won't be. And he does get to run one more race, the 4x100 relay next Saturday. I need to see him assume that patented lightning bolt victory pose one more time.

Kudos to Gatling for this post-race move.

I was looking forward to seeing Usain come back from 100-meter loss and end his career by anchoring a Jamaican victory in the 4x100 relay.

Didn't expect this. Hard to watch. And took my eye off a great finish by Canada to edge the U.S. for the gold.

Too bad Usain didn't quit, like he wanted to, last year and gone out on top. Regardless, he's the best ever, had a great run.
