He's a nice guy, the world loves him, and he did it for the world..... first man to repeat gold in the 100 m and the 200 m. At the present he also holds the world record in both distances.
The Jamaican men win the gold, silver, and bronze, in the 200 m.
A very small country of 3 million, but what sprinters they produce, quite unbelievable really.
Well done Jamaica!
It is probably a sure bet that Jamaica will win the 100 m x 4

And what about that Canadian women's Soccer team? My oh my .... from 8th rank in the world, from 10 or more years of struggling to get better and better. One of the great stories of this 2012 Olympics.
Cheated (yes they were) from beating the USA and into the gold medal final, they come back to face one of the best women's teams in the world.... France. And they fought, hung on, yes had some close calls, but the ball has to go in the net to count as a goal. And in the last minute or so it was Canada that put the ball in the French net.
Soccer will surely hit a new high now in Canada, for it is the most popular played game in the world.
Sadly for many the truth of the medical facts are proving that you have to question if girls and women should even play Soccer; the strain on the body, bones, muscles, tendons etc. are not in the overall created to take such a beating. But in saying this I know girls and women playing Soccer will increase, certainly with the ladies Soccer team for Canada doing so well, it will increase in Canada.
