Bolt himself, however, didn’t appear overly enthusiastic about following Rogge’s suggestion and competing in Olympics after Olympics.
Asked what he thought he might be doing in ten years’ time, he replied: “How do I see myself in 2022? Hopefully chilling somewhere. I’m a lazy person.”
Haha awesome. But I agree if Bolt is not considered a legend at this point then who is? I guess Bolt doesn't compare to Rogge's legendary career in yachting who never won anything at the Olympics. No one will ever surpass his greatness.
Obviously Rogge wants to prod Bolt to come back to the Olympics as many times as possible as he knows Bolt will be the main attraction as long as he's around. But, it shouldn't be Bolt's responsibility to keep the games afloat. Rogge is the one who needs to sell the Olympics and fix many of its issues, something that I feel he is doing a very poor job at. He's just damn lucky there has been so many prominent athletes and stories coming from the last few Olympic's.
