You're missing my point; I was basically saying that he's past it. For everyday people, no, 30 is not old.

Re: MO
I should make it clear that I was not implying that 30 years old is old or that he could not win in Athens at his age. This is one of those imponderables. He's got to make it through four rounds in Sacto and then again in Athens. Can he do that? Sure. 30 years old is not that old. Will he do that? Nobody knows. For some people, especially those who've demonstrated some vulnerability, 30 could be old.
One of the great things about our sport is the uncertainty. We won't know whether Greene can or will win in Athens until it happens.
It will be very exciting, regardless of who wins.
