Lexington KY sprinter, Tyson Gay, stuns Usain Bolt in 100
Watch out, Tyson's hamstring is finally well. " The American seemed in complete control against the world record-holder. The pair raced side by side in lanes four and five. Gay, looking comfortable, drew away while Bolt strained to keep up and finished second in 9.97.

6. Hell hath no fury like a fucked up hamstring during the
Olympics. It ain't fucked up now. Tyson is for real. I think new records coming. Bolt better get back to work and quit being a star. All races matter to the runners.

7. He'll always be "Tyson Homosexual" to me
he was so dubbed by a dumba$$ fundie news "service" that used an automated filter to scrub out "gay" and insert "homosexual". Hilarity ensued:



:rofl:

8. I had never heard that, the Gay and the Gaye familiy(s)
have lived here a long time. Marvin Gaye's family's house was torn down to make space for Rupp Arena parking. If you don't care I will share this with the locals here. LOL Help us Jesus there are fast gays.

11. Go for it!
I visited Lexington once. I stayed at the hotel that's connected to Rupp Arena, though it was out of season.
