What is it with American track & field stars? First Marion Jones goes to prison, now this: Tim Montgomery, who won gold in the 400-meter relay in the 2000 Olympics and silver in the same event in 2004, was just sentenced to five years in prison for dealing heroin. "I was blind — I never had a job in my life," Montgomery explained to U.S. District Judge Jerome B. Friedman. "I did the wrong thing." [EUR]
OMG, heroin?
He couldn't find a job as a track coach at somebody's high school?
He really couldn't be any dumber. Didn't Marion have a kid with him, too? If so, both of that kid's parents have been to prison.
