I think we need someone like Geb in the American running community. Instead we have people like Alan Webb who can't really even talk all that well. Webb is fast as hell, but he needs to work on his interviewing skills. His personality is better than many others though, at least he seems pretty laid back and actually likes to have some fun. People don't want to see completely serious athletes who only care about running. They want laid-back athletes or athletes that like to talk trash (Mottram) or any other number of personalities and not just "It will be a good race with those people in there." or some other canned response. Hell, why do you think people like Pre? He made track exciting. He talked trash, his racing style (essentially all-out) excited people. Yes, he was dumb and drove drunk and has been WAY overhyped by Nike, but I think we need somebody like him again.
