On Tuesday Asafa Powell set a new world's record in Athens—the 100m in 9.77s. Yesterday the Jamaican sprinter arrived to a hero's welcome when he returned to his homeland. Is he impressed with his record? "I think it can be lowered." We love track stars—the legs, lycra suits and everything underneath—but hope they're not so fast behind closed doors.








I think he cheated. Those pictures clearly show he's hiding something in his pants. Maybe its the source of all that speed. I think he should be forced to reveal what it is.

My mother could never understand why I was only interested in track and field as a kid. Guys like Asafa still set my heart racing. The butt,the thigh, the bulge....mmm
