Let The (Psychological) Games Begin!

[EPelle]

According to Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet, Kenta Bell has started a psych-war with Christian Olsson. Bell apparently has stated that Olsson is going to crap in his pants this summer when the two meet head-to-head in competition. Apparently Bell is set to unleash a can of whoop-ass on Olsson.

Olsson stated: "That is typically American - to get cocky. He [Bell] has gotten the former world-record holder Willie Banks as his trainer, and have said things like 'that triple jumper from Stockholm,' as they stated it in an interview. Well, I am not from Stockholm, but I guess that is a part of the strategy - just like my pants will be brown."

It was Willie Banks (Bell's coach) who first made reference to Olsson crapping his pants a few weeks ago.

I would like to see what Bell said, and the context in which he said it. It sounds like the Swedes are trying to fan the rivalry into flames.

with all due respect to Bell's ability, it's only a "rivalry" if he can consistenty get within a foot of Olsson.
