Usain Bolt Sets A New World Record For Mens 100m [SPORTS]


A performance that solidifies him as the fastest man in the world (Again, as he set the previous world record a year ago with a time of 9.69), Usain Bolt ran the 100m in a mindbusting 9.58 seconds at the 12th IAAF World Championships in Athletics at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin August 16th 2009. Which coincidentally was exactly 1 year after he set his initial world record. Take look at the footage here.

J-A-M-A-I-C-A! Check the dance!

Toronto Raptors Trade Jermaine O'Neal For Shawn Marion! [SPORTS]


It's probably for the best...welcome to the city Shawn!

After weeks of discussion, the Toronto Raptors have ended their brief experiment with centre Jermaine O'Neal. Sources have confirmed the club has traded O'Neal and swingman Jamario Moon to the Miami Heat for forward Shawn Marion and guard Marcus Banks in a deal designed to free up salary-cap space this summer, and to solidify the team's underperforming small forward position. Toronto will also send a conditional draft pick to Miami, and receive cash considerations.

Toronto City Blues For Sammy...


From Coach Of The Year to we don't want you here! The Toronto Raptors officially canned Mitchell and I must say I had mixed reaction to it. Surprised, yet not so much...I've been preaching that he should go for some time now, but I just didn't expect it to happen. However after a 39 point loss on Tuesday against Denver I suppose that was the straw that broke the camels back.

I am excited to see Jay Triano step in as the interim coach, as well as the first full-time Canadian-born NBA head coach in history!

All things considered I'm confident GM Bryan Colangelo to steer the team out the gutter, and at the current moment he's taking it on the chin like a champ.

"We are not a basketball team or a roster without flaws...I'm wearing this one, just like Sam's wearing it. This falls on me..." Said Colangelo. "Winning is everything."
