Doesn't that make him dumb as a rock too?  He had a chance to set a WR that might last a long time and instead celebrated rather than just wait 5 seconds.

think of it as a business plan. he got the gold and from it he'll earn plenty at athletics meets, at his next major comp he'll go for his record, get more publicity and increase his 'meet' fee again, as long as he looks like he can go faster he'll be very marketable cos people will go hoping to see him set a record.

Maybe, or as others have stated, maybe not.  He's young - just 21 - and will be running in international events for many more years.  If he can turn in that kind of time with that kind of attitude, he's going to be a big draw.

You gotta admit, Jamaica came to this olympics ready to show the world that they have world class sprinters....

fjl:
I think they said he was 23 or was it 24? But he already said that London 2012 will be his last Olympics cause he said he doesn't want to be competing after reaching 30.
