Olympic Games Upsets: Fastest Women Jamaican 100-Meter Clean Sweep - US Protest Rejected

Olympic Games Upsets: 3 Jamaican Fastest Women 100m Clean Sweep At 2008 Beijing Olympics

Hi,

I woke at about 2:00am this morning and went back to sleep just before dawn, so I missed the women's 100m Olympic Games excitement!

Then without having seen the race myself I tuned into the discussion of the race results being questioned by the US on Jamaican television.

The race was shown again and at first it looked to me like it was a clear 1-2-3 until I saw the slow motion end.

Anyway, although the protest kept the girls from enjoying the award ceremony immediately, it has all been settled...

Shelly-Ann Fraser came in first with her 10.78 run. Sherone Simpson and Kerron Stewart tied with 10.98, verified or taken down to the thousandth of a second.

I saw the Jamaican Fastest Women - 100m Clean Sweep at Bird Nest Stadium, 2008 Beijing Olympics HuffPost thread (I have retitled it), read the comments then posted my own:

There are two countries that have a long established history of winning in the Olympic Game sprints: Jamaica and the USA.

Now it is much more of a level playing field with better doping tests. Jamaica will continue to excel once there is a level playing field.

The results now being produced with the new strategy of training our athletes IN Jamaica BY Jamaican coaches makes these wins especially sweet as we always used to hear the foreign sports broadcasters say 'yes, they're Jamaican but they're trained in ..... by .......

Congratulations, girls. We're looking for the same Gold results in the 200m and the relays!!!


Tobias in his August, 2008 message, spoke of the Olympic Games upsets that were to unfold...

Hearty congratulations to ALLLLL worldwide athletes competing in the Beijing Olympics. You are all winners to make your country's team and you make every one of us fellow human beings proud.

Also, you are carrying the 'warrior' energy of excellence and FREEEEEEDOM into China on behalf of the entire world. This will massively transform life in China within the very near future and for that, we give you massive thanks and ringing applause, 3D and otherwise... ;-)

Jamaican Olympic Games Upset: Usain Bolt Wins 100m Gold at Beijing Olympics in Bird Nest Stadium

Jamaican Olympic Games Upset: Usain Bolt Wins 100m Gold at Beijing Olympics in Bird Nest Stadium

Wow!!!

Jamaica just won its FIRST 100m Men's sprint!

Usain Bolt, 21, world record holder, broke his own world record, broke the Olympic record and won his first Olympic Gold medal.

Here was my first Tweet after watching the race:

FIRSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT JAMAICAN to win Olympic Gold 100m 9.69 @ beijing olympics! we've waited 32 yearsssss!!!!


CONGRATULATIONS, Usain! Asafa Powell, Congrats, you almost made bronze and don't stress please! We know you were recently injured and not 100%!!! Michael Frater, congratzzz for breaking 10 for the 100m, we are proudddd of you!!! At 9.97, you're now the fourth FASTEST Jamaican 100m sprinter!

The Caribbean fielded SIX finalists in the 100m, with THREE from Jamaica. Jamaicans trained in Jamaica BY Jamaican coaches. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

WE LOVE YOU!!! JAMAICA is PROUD, ECSTATIC, and EXCITED about the 200m Gold and the 4x100m GOLD next week!!!!

Congrats also to Richard Thompson, Trinidad & Tobago and Walter Dix, USA!

Lightning Bolt Usain, continue to have fun!!! AWESOME RUN! 9.69 joggingggg!!!! ;-) We still have NO clue what you CAN run but who cares??? You're 21!!! HAVE FUN!!! Take your ice baths, REST tomorrow and HAVE FUN!!! ;-)

Tomorrow, we're watching our Jamaican women!!! Go GIRLSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

NUFFFFFFFF EXCITMEMENTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!

Update: Life ALWAYS provides when there's a need. When I re-read the above post, I couldn't dream of making it sound more coherent.... the gratitude and excitement is just too much!!! PLUS I'm wondering if my two pre-teens are still alive: they're doing their black belt grading now, 6+ longgggg hours. And I'm not allowed to be there, spy from atop a tree or nearest rooftop or anything....

So was I HAPPY when I noticed Dr. Mani's tweet with a New York Times Usain Bolt 100m Olympic Gold piece with GREAT slides of the race! THANK YOU, Dr. Mani!

I can now let go the guilt of not having the video or more pics to share and fully take up the mother-type worrying about my soon-to-be black belt chick-a-dees... ;-)

Beijing Olympic Games 2008 - My Olympic Games Opening Ceremony Commentary

Beijing Olympic Games 2008 - My Olympic Games Opening Ceremony Commentary

Hello,

(NB: See EDIT below)

I had a lot of fun watching the wonderful Beijing Olympics Games 2008 opening ceremony held in the Bird Nest Stadium earlier today. It was efficiently planned, executed and achieved an outstanding Wow factor.

I woke up and check MSNBC to see the coverage but saw Morning Joe instead then quickly switched and breathed a relief to find both local television stations carrying the feed with Jamaican sportscasters live in Beijing. Relief!!! ;-)

Below, I list all the Twitter commentary that I shared. I was on Twitter just prior to 7:00am Jamaican time and just automatically started twittering the event... I was sooo excited!

From Twitter Beijing Olympics updates from Angela Chen Shui

EDIT: I realised after a few hours catch-up sleep that I missed six or seven mpages worth of commentary. So I manually reposted in another blog post. See my full Beijing Olympics Games 2008 Bird Nest Opening Ceremony Commentary.

Soon after watching and Twittering the entire four hour marathon, I konked out because I've been waking up early for the past few days.... getting ready to watch the events live over the next 17 days? ;-)

Now I'm well rested so I'll be up to see what's happening later...

btw, there were lots of persons asking for an online site from which to watch the ceremony earlier. Someone shared this one, so if you have trouble finding it via tv when you want to watch, you can check if it's being carried here at the Beijing Olympics online tv blog. I just noticed that they've installed a chat room and there are 64 persons in there now! ;-)

Next time I start commenting on the events, I'll try to remember to put the keyword phrase 'Beijing Olympics JM' in each comment. That way we can track the comments in a feed over at Twitter's search feed service.

Did you watch the opening ceremony? If so, what was your favourite segment?
