mad props to Craig for pushing Centro to his limits. I think Craig could have won that if he had to come from behind but either way it was an amazing race... One for the ages

Okay   August 14, 2007 at 11:46pm
Yeah the "I get to go to the girl's house" and facial expression was kind of creepy but other than that Matt seems very down-to-the-earth and is a phenomenal runner.

That was an amazing race and I think Matt Jr. will be following in his father's footsteps through college and beyond.

He's not being cocky. in fact neither of them are. They're just having fun. How can someone not be a little gitty after running THE NUMBER 3 ALL-TIME 2-mile?

I've known Matt Sr since we ran in High School. He's the most humble guy I know. Never talks about the past. An all around great guy. Matt Jr is the same. Talent is in the genes. Nuff said.

I noticed that Centro Sen. always is either sitting down, or leaning on someone in his interviews. Is there something going on there that we don't know about.....or did I miss something and am being a big **** right now?

He wasnt cocky in the slightest. People need to stop ripping people apart for interviews. These are HS kids and dont get interviewed very often. Matt Sr. didnt say anything cocky at all either.

His dad had the American record in the 5k he can be cocky. He is also one of the best coaches in the nation.

Wow   June 18, 2007 at 5:01am
His dad seems a little cocky and I think it rubs off. However, you run 8:41 and you can do whatever you want, whenever you want.
