Seriously? You don't know how to write the name of our sport? It's track AND field--or, if you want to speak colloquially, track 'n' field (two apostrophes).
"Track in field"--cripes. Let me guess: you also say "all of the sudden" and "the proof is in the pudding."
Sheesh.

how could you possibly prefer Jager (or anyone really) to Rupples?
the real question is why anyone would want to see a golfer in this issue? Is a golfer even an "athlete?"

I'd agree on Brenda. And add Jessica Ennis.
No surprise. The times when a man or woman was considered fit just for being SKINNY/SCRAWNY are long over.
What people want to see is that BUFF/SHREDDED kinda athlete, think MMA fighters or crossfit athletes.
Hahaha... yeah, and golfers and NASCAR drivers

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Okay, you're probably trolling, but I'll bite--the maxim is:
The proof [i.e. the test] of the pudding is in the eating.
If you think about it, "the proof is in the pudding" makes absolutely no sense.
You're right that that was the original phrase, but it's now evolved into "the proof is in the pudding," everyone uses it that way, and you're being a pedant if you correct it.

Wow. I respectfully disagree. Not "everyone" uses "the proof is in the pudding," and you're being moronic if you do.
You can't "respectfully disagree" and also say "you're being moronic". These things are mutually exclusive.
Also, you're being a pedant. If you can't accept that the phrase has evolved to "the proof is in the pudding", too bad, 'cause you're wrong!
