micheal johnson is not friendly if he doesnt know you ive seen him talk to people so badly for reason at all. well frankie he is nice most of the time but there are times when frankie can be a real prick.

Khotso is a very nice guy and he jumped well these olympics even after he fired his coach in europe as he wasnt performing.

I totally disagree, the only person i have seen Frankie not talk nicely of is MJ, and vice versa.

MJ once stayed at his hotel in PTA for a couple hours signing autographs etc for people, he didnt once complain or talk badly to anyone.

Frankie IS Mr Nice Guy.

and Godfrey is not a very nice guy, i know alot of the athletes don't like him

well travel with Godfrey and you will see what kind of person he is ive been to the pre training camp in korea with him, olympics games and the european season in potsdam germany with him nice guy no one in the team had anything bad to say about him maybe you just have to travel with the guy to understand him.

on the MJ issue LOL he denied people autographs even though he wasnt doing anything, he swore at 2 guys tell them to buzz off right here in Beijing.MJ is a no nonsense guy.Frankie is not bad if he is used to you otherwise he is not cool.

im stopping here about this. we will agree to disagree even though im here in beijing watching it happen

Fair enough,

But i understand why MJ is upset, losing his 200M record haha

Any reason why my reply hasn't been posted or 'blessed' by the mods...was a pretty innocuous report about MJ's antics in a TV studio whilst being interviewed.

Well since that one went straight on board (previous one, my first post on the board, had a message about having to be approved by mods), I will now re-tell the MJ story.

He was interviewed in Australia by Ray Martin ,respected Ch 9 60 minutes presenter, on A Current Affair in early 2000's (after Syd OG). Martin wanted to know MJ's opinion about CJ Hunter and the other rumoured US drug users, Marion Jones et al. MJ told him not to go there.
Well later in interview Martin tried an angle again, MJ got up and with expletives basically abused Martin. MJ ripped off earpieces etc and bodyguards came into view, cameras were being shoved etc and they stormed out.
What Ch 9 showed in end was actually worse than MJ answering the question...but one was left with the feeling he didn't want to incriminate himself.

He certainly was very touchy about the D word, a lot of which came to light since. Since MJ escaped this bullet (being busted) imo, I for one am glad his 200m is no longer the WR. If only someone can do likewise to his 400m.
