Re: IOC chief Rogge chides Bolt for lack of respect to rivals

Bolt broke Michael Johnson's 200 record, not Carl Lewis (who in turn, can't sing worth a damn yet sang the National Anthem about as well as Roseanne Barr did).

I see both sides of the coin. Bolt should recognize his competitors and give them due time after a race, but at the same time, he does make watching him run interesting. And it's his interpretation out on the track before and after the race that sets him apart. Bolt is just a kid out there having a good time, and none of the other competitors seem to have a problem with him (not that I've read or watched).
