Old man Gatlin fails to qualify for the 200m final ...

Gasp!!!!!!!!!!!! What a shock!!!  
We've been told that the older you are the more competitive you become. 
We've been told that the young are useless and that we should put our trust in the elderly.
We've been told repeatedly over the last few years how those with one foot in the grave are our only real choices to success and victory.
That the elderly are as strong ... if not stronger than the younger generation.
Sooooo ... my questions is ... What on earth happened to Gatlin? 
With all the advantages that old age brings one would have thought he'd simple walk into the final.
It didn't happen. How come?? 
Did he pick up a bad dose of flu? Did he eat something that didn't agree with him?
Was it perhaps an argument with his girlfriend that produced this lack lustre performance? 
Puzzling??
I just can't put my finger on it.

Old man Bolt beats the youngsters by 3 strides and his 30th birthday by 4 days, to win the 200 metres....are you entertained?

 The Gatlin Gun just ran outta bullets ,his pharmacist is doing a stretch in the county jail !

 He managed it at 29 ... not 30 ... and yes I think the whole planet was entertained.
Doubt we'll see his likes again. 

I blame Suzie  

This age argument is almost as stupid as the Moz's height vs Dave's weight argument!
