00:07Noah Lyles who likes to talk
00:09to talk backs it up with the
00:11walk or at least the sprint
00:13yesterday to win gold for an
00:15American man in the 100 meter
00:18dash for the first time in two
00:20decades. The American takes
00:22home gold in a legitimate photo
00:24finish. Yeah, you saw him come
00:26right out of the tunnel when his
00:27name was announced and he was
00:28all fired up. I kept saying to
00:29him now knowing you have the
00:30race of your life that's just
00:31about to happen. But boy, he
00:33was working right. And that was
00:34an amazing race. Because as I
00:35said, if it was just a wire to
00:37wire victory, would we have
00:38been impressed? Absolutely. But
00:40the fact that it looks like you
00:41weren't even going to metal and
00:43then what 20 meters later, you
00:44are the absolute fastest man in
00:46the world. And we don't pay
00:48attention a lot in America from
00:49track and field, but we really
00:50get excited for it every four
00:52years around the world. It is a
00:53big deal all the time with the
00:55world championships. But for 10
00:57seconds there, that is some of
00:58the most amazing stuff you can
00:59watch and exciting and also the
01:01way the finish happened. You
01:03didn't couldn't tell who won
01:04quite frankly, just looking at
01:05the naked eye when it happened.
01:06I didn't think he won the gold
01:07medal. So I was pretty
01:08surprised when walking around
01:09the track figuring it was
01:10because Shane Thompson at that
01:11point and it wasn't it was
01:12awesome to see again. It just
01:14wish it would have been more
01:15awesome. If we got a proper feed
01:17from the commentators there,
01:18which was one of the worst
01:19cause like a Super Bowl winning
01:21kick that the guy thought went
01:22wide left. It's like hold on
01:23man, like be in the moment at
01:24least let it play out. It was a
01:26bad one, but certainly can't
01:27take away from that moment.
01:28Lyles was phenomenal. And now
01:29the fastest man in the world
01:31once again coming off that
01:32world championship.
