BOLT’S RACERS TEAM LEAVES AMERICANS DISGRUNTLED

Usain Bolt-anchored Racers Track Club team, representing Jamaica Gold, left the Americans disgruntled after their Penn Relays 4×100m win on Saturday.
Four athletes from Kingston-based Racers Track Club, headed by World and Olympic sprint double champion, Usain Bolt, representing Jamaica, destroyed their American counterparts in the USA vs The World men’s 4×100m inside the Franklin Field stadium.

The Jamaicans not only destroyed the field to win, but they broke USA’s meet record of 37.92 by running 37.90secs.
Yohan Blake, Marvin Anderson and Mario Forsythe were the other team members.
Shawn Crawford, the 2004 Olympic 200m champion, could not hold back his thoughts during the post race press conference.
“I hate losing, and I hate losing to Jamaica.”

He blamed the team’s defeat on the handoff, even though Jamaica was far from full-strength … as Asafa Powell did not run while Nesta Carter ran on the other team.
“I’m tired of being plagued by messed-up handoffs. We’re better than that, but it seems like the last four years, we’re not better than that.”
Michael Rodgers was also upset, but mainly because Jamaica broke their Penn Relays record in their backyard.
“This is the first time I’ve lost to Jamaica, and they broke our (Penn Relays) record. And they did it on home soil. How would you like it if somebody came in your house and beat you?”

    I rarely leave a response, but i did some searching and wound up here "BOLT'S RACERS TEAM LEAVES AMERICANS DISGRUNTLED".
    And I actually do have a couple of questions for you
    if you do not mind. Is it only me or does it look like a few of these responses appear as if they are coming from
    brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are posting on other social sites, I'd like to keep up with anything new you have to post. Would you list of all of your public sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to
    her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had
    to tell someone!
