Well the Commonwealth Games are over for another four years, and to be kind of honest, I didn't actually end up watching a whole lot of them. It does say a lot when some of the world's best athletes can't take part in it because they're not from a Commonwealth country, and well, Usain Bolt summed it up when he called it "a bit shit". But still, everyone I talked with in Glasgow has had fun, and they've been a success. Roll on four years, when they come to the Gold Coast in Australia. And for the first time since 1986, England finished top of the medals table (in both gold medals and total medals), with Australia ending a six Games run of being on top. Hosts Scotland finished fourth in gold medals, although India did win more total medals than them. Canada were third. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/commonwealth-games/2014/medals/countries

Bolt didn't actually say that. As for the best athletes, it's no different from the Six Nations, the EURO's etc...Not all competitions are worldwide in nature. They are still important events though
It was a great games overall. England top of the medals table. Amazing performances.
