Announcers need to be not so clueless. US distance running didn’t start with Salazar and his s-show. How can you possibly forget (or not know) Billy Mills.
I vividly recall being a hotel bar in Santa Fe, New Mexico and jumping up and down when Galen got his silver in London. Doing the same right now for Grant! Awesome race!!!

Thought he might win it with 50 to go but Aregawi came up to edge him for 2nd.

What race were you watching? Grant never closed on Joshua in the entire last 80m, they ran virtually the same sprint in and only the Ethiopian last 40m was faster than Grant and Joshua.
Congratulations Grant🎉 Fisher you deserved a medal and you delivered 🥉. Wtg Nico Young in your 1st Olympic 26:58.11

Chill out, they talked about Billy Mills at the beginning of the race.... they didn't forget or not know him.
Wow. That might be the best Olympic race I’ve watched. Great coverage, super hot pace but still a huge pack. Team tactics, American medal. Unreal, I’m still shaking.
