Hmmm, interesting, but you mention Maradonna without mentioning his support of progressive causes.

Also, you are right.  Usain Bolt is NOT Jesse Owens.  I don't know what his political positions are, but he is the FASTEST person I have ever seen (yesterday's 200 meter proved that) and he seems to have a sense of humor approaching that of Muhammed Ali's.
