You could say the same about every running race ever.
I knew that I would get this response and probably should have been more clear: True is not competing for any medals at the WCs although some of the guys that he beat in New York might be. This is due to the fact that the pace in NY was truly pathetic. Same type of thing happened today. This should be obvious to all. Rupp's loss here was about as "Holy ***!!" worthy as his "loss" to Bumby in the heats a few years back.
