begin an "indefinite training period"
with Australia's Central Coast Mariners
on August 18. His goal is to make the squad for the Mariners' season opener on
October 21. Usain Bolt, via CNN The eight-time Olympic gold medalist has always been open about his desire to play soccer professionally. However, the agreement for Bolt to
begin training "does not guarantee a professional playing contract." While Bolt's speed as the fastest man in the world is undeniably impressive, his ball skills are still a work in progress. Shaun Mielekamp, Mariners CEO, via CNN Though Bolt might have a long
