Hahaha...the Argentinian announcers are so hilarious. They said things like:

"this is the first WC in Bolt`s career"
"Kim Collins was Sevilla 99' World Champion, but then, he dissapeared from the map"
"Where is Walter Dix? seems like no Walter Dix" :?: :?:
"Ohhh...false start!! Somebody will be DQ!! (3 minutes later: eeehhm nope, in fact, this rule will start to work in 2010)

This happens when you send to Berlin Soccer a bunch of football announcers.
8-) 8-)

BTW, At least they covered every heat and event.

haha wow

You guys are right. 3 an 5 aren't easy heats.

Bolt, Bailey, Edwards, Martina and Williamson in that race. Don't sleep on Emmanuel Calender from Trinidad. This indeed feels like a semi and at least 2 of the favorites to make the final could be out and based on how they ran in that first round I would say Williamson and Martina are in trouble.

Ha ha ha ha. Very good stuff.

[Gordon18]

Bolt's RT in his heat was .144!

So this helps Makes TheAtheist theory even faster now of what bolt is capable of, because he was giving him a .16. I hope bolt can keep this sort of start up in throughout the rounds

[SQUACKEE]

Bolt's RT in his heat was .144!

The fastest reaction time of the entire first round by someone with a new PB of 11.74?

Don't be a hater. His real talent is in table tennis...

Good find. Being good at table tennis surely requires some fast reflexes.

He's only 16, so let's see if he goes below 11 in 2011.

[Cooter Brown]

I suspect this was a false start that wasn't fast enough to be caught (heat 10).

I feel desperately sorry for the athletes in heat three and heat five.

This draw is horrible. Some of these heats are very weak and others impossibly strong.
