a laugh? What's not to 'get'?
Personally I was thinking this games would be a big bag o'****e but I've enjoyed it immensely, mostly courtesy of Team GB but others have been entertaining too, esp UB imo.

vs guy that has to run 100s of miles constantly, and has just got 10k and 5k gold. And supports Arsenal.

What's not to understand?

Basically the difference between thinking you have the God given right to be the best and knowing you're the best.

lull (except our classy signings of course) has, as a sports fan, been great imo. I don't count the Euros as that was utter ****e...

And if you're the fastest man in history, why not enjoy it a little? His persona clearly pleases the crowd and is completely harmless, I find the cynicism completely unnecessary.

Mainly that Gatling is clearly a c**t and Bolt isn't.

Nothing wrong with arrogance if you like it, and it can certainly help some people to achieve excellence, but there are also plenty of modest winners, as we have seen this fortnight.

Michael Johnson was explaining earlier that he never felt he was entitled to anything. If he was going to be the best, he had to earn it.

Hence some people will prefer the Farrah/Rushida personality type.

I've loved plenty of arrogant winners in my time, but what I do like about the winners with some humility is that they disprove the 'nice guys always finish last' crap which some people take as an excuse to act like complete cùnts all the time.

TBH honest it's probably been a blessed relief for him being in the Olympic village for a couple of weeks.
