I don't know what you call him, but it doesn't seem like he's there for the team. First he backed out on joining the team for the opening ceremonies, then he backed out on a relay event because he's only there for himself. Then that comment last night about not getting a hug from Chad Hedrick after he won his race. I don't know what's up with this guy. There's a couple others with attitude issues, too.
Who knows, this stuff may go on all the time and maybe the media is making a point of promoting the controversy because that's what some people thrive on these days. Look at the shows like Idol, or Apprentice and highlighting personality conflicts are a major part of the show. Whatever it is, it's making the US look like a bunch of childish putzes and probably why we're behind in the medal count.
