The issue is not whether or not there was a foul at this point. Personally, I think there was no foul. However, the real issue is whether the appeals process was compromised by Nike interference and influence. The irony is that (despite all of the Nike employees posting on this thread)NOP would be popular (because the runners are fast)without all of this drama. In the long run, it doesn't matter whether Jordan makes the indoor team; what does matter is that if this DQ holds up she (through no fault of her own)will lose any chance of being a popular figure in the running community. I expect Nike marketing to consider whether or not to fire Alberto, but ultimately make the wrong decision.
Bumby rabbiting the 3k was TOTAL BUSH LEAGUE, btw. F! Jerry and his crew, too.
