ASAFA Powell to win leading from start to finish, with Bolt coming in second.
If the weather permits a new World Record of 9.69.
I pray the race does not have a false start. If it does I pray neither of our Jamaican runners get disqualified on any other false starts after the first.
What was your prediction last week Gamma, has it still remained the same? bullet bullet bullet
i would like asafa to win to get that monkey off his back...that was the ballot i cast on the forum poll....however having seen them both run.... i don't think asafa will win .... a new WR by bolt is in the offing too.

you should know that by now. Warning though if you dont follow the heard stay ahead or behind as (1) you wont get trampled or (2) you wont make their mistakes (fall off cliffs)

It will be win win for Jamaica if Powell Bolt or vice versa runs Gold, Silver.
By the way which vote business, I swear you and Islandman are ruthlessly in the Bolt camp (divide and demolish, anancy riddle)
My sentiment exactly. A month ago leading up to the Games, I felt he was going to win, now I am hoping he will win.
now before tomorrow. Bolt may tighten in the finals, hopefully he stays relaxed and runs his best race, and if Asafa runs his best race according to plan GOLD is his.
I wouldnt write off Gay, but I havent seen the races, Historian and Islandman seems like they have written him off.
The Gay of old would win his races and look relaxed. He is not winning his races and he doesn't look that relaxed. The first heat was a mess, arms and legs flailing all over the place. He looked much better for the quarterfinals.
Still not writing him off. The semifinals are going to be a humdinger!!! And then the finals an hour later!
I would be VERY surprised if Gay finishes in the top 2. He might just round into good enough form in the finals for a medal, but he just doesn't look like a threat so far.
I am in the Bolt camp, but while before the Olympics started I felt Asafa would win if he could find his best form in the finals , now I think Bolt at his best looks unbeatable. Its probably Asafas last chance for gold while Bolt will have more chances so I will be more than happy for him if he proves me wrong.

My Money is on Bolt. I think he handlesipressure way better than Asafa...Besides, the youth is very good.
I keep telling my friends that Bolt let Asafa beat him in UK. Strategy. Imagine, if Bolt had won that race, people would just write off Asafa totally.
Now look at....Bolt can brag about the WR but has something to prove...neck to neck vs ASAFA
ASAFA doesn't have the WR but neck to neck he has beaten Bolt
So Both ful of confidence with something to prove...it will be a new WR
