This was an interesting story that came over the EME News report today. Justin Gatlin believes that Usain Bolt will return to the sport in the next couple of years, after a year of trying other things. I am not so sure, but open to it. Usain Bolt returning to the sport could be fun. Fans love him, as does the media. It will be interesting to see how this develops.

LOS ANGELES (USA): Justin Gatlin told Thepostgame.com he believes Usain Bolt will make a comeback to competition. “Now that he has the free time, I’ve already told him, I’m going to give you a year,” said the world 100m champion. “You’re going to go around, party, have a good time, and you’re going to come back and you’re going to owe me $100 because I took the bet. He shook on it.”
