Usain Bolt believes he must win all three sprinting gold medals on offer in Rio in order to rival Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan and Pele as the greatest sportsman ever.Bolt begins his hunt for an unprecedented triple-triple on Saturday as he competes in the 100m heats of what, in all likelihood, will prove to be his final Olympic Games.After his clean sweeps at both Beijing and London, further golds in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m in Brazil would cement the 29-year-olds place as the most dominant track athlete of the modern era.However, Bolt has far loftier ambitions. The Jamaican is determined to put himself in the pantheon of sporting greats before he retires, but is a Rio treble essential to that quest?Yeah, he told ESPN in London last month. I think it would definitely help and push [my cause] because its big.As any sports star, you have to continue winning, and as this is going to be my last Olympics, unless ... I think I definitely have to win to prove to the world that I am the best throughout the whole of my career.Thats the focus and Im going to get it done.If Bolt celebrates his 30th birthday on Aug. 21 with another three gold medals draped around his neck, he will become the third track and field athlete to have won nine Olympic titles.He would, though, become the first to claim those golds exclusively in sprinting events, and he has been equally impressive in world championships, winning 11 of the last 12 titles on offer.It is that domination of the shorter distances that has edged him past other modern greats of the track, such as Carl Lewis -- who won four of his nine golds in the long jump -- and childhood hero Michael Johnson.Like Pele, Bolt has dealt with early expectations and delivered on his promise, and like Ali, Bolt has paired his accomplishments with a personality that few of his peers can match.But although Bolt has enjoyed a relationship with Puma since he was just 14 years old, he admits that building a sportswear brand to rival Jordans may be beyond his reach.A lot of my friends have said, Usain, you should get your own shoe line, Bolt said. But I said, Listen, Michael Jordan actually played in basketball shoes, so its a lot different to track and field.I actually use spikes, so its much, much different.But if I could get a shoe that could go out there, that would be awesome because I think Im one of the few persons, like Michael Jordan, who actually has a symbol that people actually know, that stands out.His playful antics in stadiums around the world -- including larking around Londons Olympic Stadium with Mo Farah four years ago and?colliding with a Segway in Beijing last year -- have helped cultivate his legend as much as his achievements on the track.But as he contemplates turning 30 -- a prospect the Jamaican is less than ecstatic about -- Bolt is now the elder statesman of athletics. And, it seems, he is keen to help the next generation of sprinting talent.Ive always tried to pass on information to younger kids, he said. Especially because I started out at a young age and Ive been through it all, the injuries, the doubts, the stress, all these things.Ive always tried to encourage younger athletes and give them tips to try to explain to them what they need to do and how hard the road is going to be.Ive really tried my best, and any athlete who comes up to me and asks me information, you know Ill give if they ask. Even [teammate Yohan] Blake, Ive always tried to encourage him although hes one of my biggest rivals. Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap .

Traded from Seattle to Baltimore on Aug. 30, Morse also can play first base and right field to give manager Bruce Bochy some flexibility in writing his lineup.Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew says his side lacked quality as they fell to their fifth successive Premier League defeat to Bournemouth on Tuesday evening. A second half goal from Benik Afobe sealed the win for the visitors, but the Eagles had taken the lead just before the half-hour mark through Scott Dann.It lasted just seven minutes, with Marc Pugh hitting the equaliser and the hosts were unable to find the cutting edge to take a point after falling behind. We huffed and puffed really and we really did lack a bit of quality, Pardew told Sky Sports after the game.It was a tough game for us because they got breaks in the game that I thought went their way. Having said that, we were up for the battle, you could see that in the way we played but you need the other side of that and there was a little bit of quality and composure lacking for us tonight.

Maybe Adebayor will give that to us or maybe Chamakh will but someone needs to.You could see that Adebayor was up for us and he showed a good commitment to the game. Hes rusty, theres no doubt about that but his technique was good and he had half a chance which he nearly squeezed in. Hell be fine. Emmanuel Adebayor comes on for his Crystal Palace debut, replacing Fraizer Campbell. Crystal Palace will be looking to get back to winning ways in the Premier League when they travel to Swansea on Saturday, although they may have added a few more names to their already lengthy injury list.We lost McArthur at half-time and we dont know how serious that is, and then Puncheon, Pardew added.After I made the first sub, he pulled his hamstring so its just one after the other. Weve had a terrible, terrible run.I dont know if Cabaye will be back for Swansea, but I hope so. We missed him tonight to provide that pass or that quality moment.
