Phill will have to buy one to show his solidarity with his countryman. Or, at least that's what he'll tell his wife.

Brilliant idea, but if it dosen't work I'm coming to live in your spare room.

Apparently he has plenty of money, he is donating 50k to the red cross.
Not really, he and his family are still of very humble means and therefore he knows what it is like not to have anything. His life and lifestyle is about to change and he wanted to thank the people of China for helping to launch him into this new life. Also, the Chinese had been warm to the Jamaican contingent, even my friends who were there for the games (and staying over to see more of the country) have become minor celebrities when they go out in their Jamaican garb. People want to take pictures with them and some even want autographs!

With all the negativity in the world today, it's really nice to hear something so positive, Phill. PS: The spare room's open any time. Of course, you'll have to let me take a spin in the M3 from time to time!

I'd rather have that as a prize than a medal any day! They should have just put a roundel on a ribbon for the ceremony.

Well, he did win a lot more medals. Nonetheless, I'm sure Bolt will benefit from this far beyond a new car. Time will tell.

He should sign a big contract to play football.

Throw the ball up, tell him to go get it. No one would be able to cover him.
