I have had enough rest and enough training, |
I just thought it was a little nerves from the start; a lot of these guys have never raced in a stadium that big. Leonard stuck out his hand. Mardy held onto the stick tight, a little too tight. Leonard went to grab it and obviously had a good grip on it, and he was taking it out of Mardy's hand, and Mardy still wouldn't let go. |
I knew Tyson gets out very fast, and Wallace comes on strong at the end. I had to make sure I was patient throughout the whole race. I was pawning, playing chess with the guys. |
I might go out there and grab a medal from these young boys running fast, |
I most definitely can get faster than the 9.88 from Helsinki with that bad weather. |
I ran like a champion. It is a great consolation to show how dominant I am. I am the Olympic champion and the world champion, but I want Justin Gatlin to be the champion of everything, |
I think I'm in shock and awe more than anybody else right now. |
I think it really stakes the claim that I'm the champion, ... I run like a champion. I show up big when it's time to show up big. |
I think this really stakes a claim that I'm a champion, ... I'm a competitor. If it means winning by an inch or a mile, I'm there. |
I think we need to fix some things within the staff and the athletes, ... I think we should take a lesson from the French and the British who have basically gotten the stick around and got it around safely. That's all we need to do. That's all we had to do: get the stick around safely and we'd be in the finals. There's no way that we should not have been in the finals. |
I thought that the light wasn't as bright in art as it was in track and field. |
I was probably in the most shock I have ever been in my life. I was speechless. |
I was probably the slowest starter in the whole race but it's the last race of the season and I knew I had to go out there and do it on the track. |
I will try for a new mark in the remaining races this season. If I don't get it this year, then it is definitely happening next year. |
I would say it's going to be me, |
