There is a photo of Asafa in today's Observer where he is comfortably ahead of the pack in his record equaling 9.77 sec in Zurich. I love it. He seems such a comfortable hotstepper. I think I will print it and put on the wall at work. My Boss is a University of Tennessee Alum (ala Gatlin) and was on a 4x400m hurdles WR team in 1967. The name Asafa scares him. He is always throwing Xavier Carter in my face re my Trelawny guy Usain Bolt. I want to make sure everytime he puts his foot in my office he sees Asafa hot stepping.

Asafa really looked good in that picture. Here is the picture:

Xavier Carter? His progress seems too good to be true.
