Well, first of all, McCalvy was the one who reported that Braddock was diagnosed bipolar; Haudricourt just said he had "emotional issues". Second of all, Ash is the one who brought it up; it's not like they went digging through Braddock's garbage. If Ash didn't want it out there, he shouldn't have talked about it. And as for just how it's characterized, bipolar disorder is not "emotional issues" and I prefer the accuracy of McCalvy's report to Tom's blandness, which also smacks faintly of tough-guy macho BS--ooh, "emotional issues", that could be anything! He doesn't have the will to compete! Lacks that killer instinct! Why not be as specific as possible?
