In an Olympic games where we've seen bad sportsmanship, cheating Badminton players, and teammates talking smack on each other, it's nice to see this act of sheer respect and a sense of multi-national cooperation.


Usain Bolt was being interviewed by a Spanish TV station after his win, but stops the interview to stand at attention while the United States' anthem plays and Sanya Richards-Ross is awarded her gold medal. The respect he showed for her talent, her accomplishment, and her country left me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.
