OLYMPICS : OVERCONFIDENT ? JUSTIN GATLIN ELIMINATED IN RIO !
US top sprinter Justin Gatlin got the shock of his life - well, the shock of the world, really - he's out of the 200 Meter Finals! Worse, it could have been a sure ticket for him to the Finals, and at least another medal at the Olympic podium - silver or bronze. But, he may simply just blew it. Just that. Blew it. Gatlin appeared to be showboating a la Usain Bolt as he nears the finish line. As a result, he lost! Well, he is not Usain Bolt, that's the problem. Gatlin is now devastatingly eliminated from the 200 Meter Finals - a final he could have easily reached. But thanks to his showboating, he could now be kicking himself on his way back home to US. Gaitlin is considered by many as the closest rival, (though not that really close), to Lightning Man Usain Bolt. He won the Silver behind Bolt in the 100 Meter in Rio. Lesson learned? Don't be like Bolt. If you ain't Bolt. Okay?Tweet
The biggest shock of #Rio2016 so far?

Justin Gatlin should be in the final. Instead he'll be watching it on TV. #Rio2016 @FireChrisChase: https://t.co/tP4pMWcoPc
