You fernandez lovers are ridiculous. He obviously way over-played the injury at NCAA's. no matter how fit he was, you just don't recover from a calf/achilles injury THAT fast. If you look, the injury he made it seem like he had was acute. Acute injuries cause severe trauma to the region. If he did indeed have a calf/achilles injury that came on in the process of a short period of time (say a few steps) then odds are, he would have been off training for quite a while. I'm not saying that the guy wasn't hurting at NCAA's, but the way that he dropped out showed that he way overacted. I guarantee he was running within two weeks, which would not have been the case if the injury was as bad as he acted. The guy is an immense talent, but he pussied out, simple as that. He probably moved up the field way too fast, realized he didn't have the juice to keep going, and decided to call it quits. It happens. When things aren't going your way in races, sometimes your mind plays tricks on you. You look for reasons to drop out. Especially when there is a lot of pressure on you. Having been in that position before, I totally understand. I know that all you fernandez lovers/dyestat groupies are going to jump over me for this and call me a pussy, but odds are that I could beat 98% of you in a race, so just save the crap and shut it.
