Usain Bolt had another stunning performance in the world championships. This time, it didn't involve him crossing the finish line in the fastest time ever recorded.
The world's fastest man broke out of the starting block early in Sunday's 100 meter final in South Korea and was disqualified from the race, providing an abrupt end to the dominance he's maintained in track's biggest event since the Beijing Olympics.

Bolt’s great rival Tyson Gay predicted this farce, more than a year ago.
In June 2010, when the instant disqualification rule was introduced, the second fastest man in history said: ‘If Usain Bolt false started it would be a wake-up call. If it happened at the World Championships or Olympics, the result is going to need an asterisk by its side. Without him, it wouldn’t make sense.’

So... Starcraft 2 without Koreans, nerd raging without Idra... anyone else want to contribute?
Overall, this is really pathetic. From what I understand the Olympic committee is already looking into this and trying to ensure this incident doesn't occur during the 2012 Summer Olympics.
