Gatlin Denied World Record

I don't see why this sucks -- dude is still the world record holder. I'm sure for these competitive athletes it's great to be better than everyone else, but being able to say that no one is better than you is a pretty big accomplishment in my book. The difference may be technically meaningless, but I think this still sucks for Gatlin. One day, he's high as a kite because he broke the world record, the next day he finds out that he only tied the record. After all of the work he put into the momentarily breaking the record and the celebration that I'm sure happened afterwards, it has to be disappointing to have the record taken away because of a technical mistake. I'm sure he will break the record so the disappointment is only temporary, but still.
