10 years for Bronze

Arnaud Malherbe from the team of 4 relay athletes speaks to the media about his team from the 1999 IAAF World Championships in Seville finally receiving their Bronze medal after America was disqualified due to doping yesterday during the send off held for 31 athletes that will be travelling to Berlin to compete in the 2009 IAAF World Championships. Third place isn't really that good, but it's a lot better than fourth. It must have been nice to find out ten years down the line that you came third, not fourth and finally getting your hands on a medal, bronze isn't much, but its better than a bunch of nothing...
