i.e. Carl Lewis say gets beat by John Drummond. Doesn't mean John Drummond is the story.
They did speak to the winner, and he was even more arrogant than Wariner.
You guys probably wonder why the newspaper doesn't have more good news than bad news.

I didn't see the Merritt interview. I tuned in for a good 30-45 minutes after the race. They obviously didn't feel like the guy blowing the field away for one of the fastest 400 times ever was as big of a priority as the guy who just choked away his medal defense and might have some nasty words about his former coach.
Sorry Waters. I'm just not much of a shock-value kind of guy. I'd rather hear from Walter Dix, who appears to be very classy and a legitimately good guy, than Spearmon or Wariner any day.
