You all do realize larsen and erik are incredibly great friends that trained together at USC for a long time. You all need to chill out. Larsen had one bad interview. Go look at his interview at the beginning of the year. He said his goal was to win the 400 and 1500. He was just a bit ticked off at being asked if he was an underdog when he in his mind thought he could win it and he did. Plus it was right after a stellar 2 second drop in the 200 free prelims. GIVE LARSEN A BREAK. Both these guys are great guys. Stop belittling Larsen and just accept that he didn't have a good interview. Seriously go look at the one of him back in Oct. at USC. It was a great interview
