Usain Bolt, the fastest ever human on earth, is in Gosford, Australia trialling with the Central Coast Mariners.
He wants to play A-League.
Do you care? Even if not that much, as a sports fan, I know you're at least aware of the story.
This is as good as clickbait news gets.
A dream come true for a competition that, ordinarily in terms of the great global game, creates next to no impact.
Honestly, the vuvuzela is more famous in world football than anything the A-League offers.
Until now that is. Why?
Curiosity mainly, the sheer weirdness of it all.
Nearest thing I can compare it to was in 1993 when Michael Jordan, then the world's greatest baller, quit the court to have a crack at baseball.
And no it didn't really work.
Thing is Jordan was never ever going to be an equal genius with a bat as he was under the basket.
Same with Usain.
The most dominant sprinter of all time isn't exactly Christiano with a football at his feet.
That's why he's with the Mariners in the A-League and not Manchester City in the Premier League.
But heh it's his life he can do what he wants.
Yes of course it's a gimmick.
But that doesn't also mean the whole idea isn't worth it.
Because right now, opening day in Gosford, he's easily the best reason you'd buy a ticket.
All Whites' players now have four months at their various clubs to make their case.
