Very mature response MJ…
Good post Sharmer.
MJ also got beaten by Fredricks in the 200 before Atlanta.
When I first saw that headline on the IAAF home page I couldn’t believe he was so young and saying the sport had left him behind already. I guess we can be divided by a common language at times.
Yet another notch turned up on the wank-o-meter for MJ…
I’m not sure how that article reflects badly on MJ.
But did any one notice the Freudian slip in the last paragraph?
Even the Johnson, the one man ahead of Wariner as the greatest 400m runner in history, was not immune to the occasional upset. It happened to him here 10 years ago when he was beaten into third place by two British athletes, Mark Richardson and Iwan Thomas. Johnson responded by boycotting the victory ceremony.
“After the race, by about 30 minutes to an hour, I had talked to my manager Deon (Minor), my agent Michael Johnson, and my coach, Michael Ford.”
I hope it wasn’t in that order.
Ahahaha. That’s good.
He boycotted the victory ceremony dude, come on, that’s total lack of respect to your competitors and the organizers of an event…
Guy laughed at this comment. Man I can’t wait to try and predict the outcome of the 400m at the olympics.
