He also writes about the response he has felt after the disqualification.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;When you&#39;re swimming well at a high level, everyone is your friend,&quot; Crocker wrote. &quot;Everyone and their brother wants to shake your hand and congratulate you and try to catch a piece of the magic.  This is not wrong, it just is.  The media loves you, and all the reporters always want just one more quote.  It all seems surreal, because it is.  It&#39;s fake.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;You don&#39;t know who loves you or even just respects you, until you fall,&quot; Crocker continued. &quot;And in a career with any kind of length, you&#39;re bound to fall at least once.  When I did last Sunday the media did their job.  I can respect that.
