If you saw it, can you say how he looked?  I only ask b/c from his
100m, i just thot he'd put up a better time than he did (which was
still pretty damb awesome).

He was running into a headwind.  I won't be surprised if he runs it in
19 flat at some point in his life.

Hope he stays injury free or doesn't get too bulky.

A better time than 19.3??  Maybe he was showboating at the end, like
he did when he ran the 100.

1. He wasn't showboating when he ran the 100.  There is a reason he
pulled up a little at the end.  Google is your friend.

2. He was running flat-out at the end of the 200.

I *saw* the race, Bryan. And I just Googled....what gem of knowledge
am I supposed to be seeing by doing so?

Haven't watched it yet. Didn't move to the UK.

...yet you can't tell the difference between showboating and just
gliding to the finish?

EuroSport commentators pointed out that at some competition next month
there is some *serious* cash available to anyone who breaks the world
record for the 100m.  Assuming he's at all smart, it seems likely that
Bolt was leaving some room to set a new record at said competition.

He beat his chest before he crossed the finish line.  That's
showboating.
