Which was silly for all the reasons I have >already explained in the "can you prevent cheating" discussion... But the question if he attended the one after game two and if he already made his accusations is _not_ proven. Taken that for granted as you do, I would agree with you. If it didn't happen this way, if he had asked away from the public you should correct your judgement. As far as I can understand the article in the NY Times there are no quotings from a press conference or from official announcements, but from background informations coming from the DB side. In reaction to their own background information the DB side (represented here by M. Campell) made a public statement.
