HE PUTS ON A FABULOUS SHOW, IS VERY UNINHIBITED IN A REFRESHING WAY. HE IS STARKLY BETTER THAN HIS COMPETITORS.

I GET THE SUBTLE IMPRESSION SOME PEOPLE WANT TO SEE HIM COME DOWN AND CRUMBLE, LIKE SO MANY ROOKIE PHENOMS THAT THEY BOUGHT INTO WITH ALL THEIR MIGHT, LIKE SO MANY CRASH AND BURN AMERICAN ATHLETES, AND, DEEP DOWN, MAYBE EVEN LIKE THEMSELVES.

I THINK IT'S WONDERFUL WHAT HE HAS DONE. HE COMES OFF AS A HAPPY CHAMPION AND HE'S SO APPROACHABLE. I WAS IMMENSELY IMPRESSED WHEN HE RECENTLY SHUSHED HIS BRAZILIAN INTERVIEWER WHEN THE USA'S NATIONAL ANTHEM WAS BEING PLAYED. WHAT GENUINE RESPECT. WHAT A CHAMPION!

OUR WORLD NEEDS HIM RIGHT NOW---MORE THAN EVER BEFORE.

I SALUTE USAIN BOLT. ---BRIAN POWELL
