SOME GUY WROTE ME: "I like Steve Scott a lot, and I admire everything he did on the track. But how you can compare him with these others is beyond me. They all won major international championships and all but Ngeny set World Records. If memory serves correctly, Scott never did." I RESPONDED: Hence that parenthetic emphasis [...Scott (you heard me)]. My point is that there is no doubt that Coe is a great champion and a world-class gentleman, but as an athlete, I respect Steve Scott more -- much more. He was kept out of many of Coe's "fixed" races. malmo
