I don't understand how you can say it was pathetic. I honestly don't think this was a easy call either way. The only reason why I thought that they got this one right was that the interference could of cost the 2 a placing. I don't think he was going to win, but he possibly could have ran second.

I do think they have dropped the ball on occasion with dq's/non-dq's (which stewards haven't) on things that looked like no brainers. This had to be an extremely tough one to rule on and while people are entitled to their opinions, I think call it pathetic is going a bit overboard.
