    Either "Bidwell" went all Kurtz... or ESPN just spiked an interview b/c the subject didn't like it... or this "Bidwell" character is actually a teenage Filipino girl who simply made the honest mistake of copy-and-pasting something for a Journatic piece she was working on instead of the Google-translation document with recent quotes from the German player in question that she was grifting off for the soccer piece.

    Don't really know anything about the writer, but his byline appears fairly often on Soccernet.
