Valby not only carried on the way others described in her race but she then hung out on the infield after her interview blowing kisses into cameras, posing and preening for the entirety of the 4x4 races until finally a meet official came and motioned for her to leave and walked her off the track. Look -is she hamming it up for the cameras and creating huge buzz for herself as she looks at signing a pro deal YES is that great for her fans that love everything Valby SURE, it's also probably great for her as she is the IT girl of the moment and will capitalize on this on her way to the bank. Was it totally and completely obnoxious to the other athletes who left the infield appropriately and the athletes that were running the relay as she was commanding center stage for 30 minutes after her race and had to be told to crouch down as she was blocking the starters view? YES
I found her obnoxious - I see why others like her and why she's using this moment to milk every ounce she can out of the attention. Still off putting the way Im sure many people felt about Colleen Quigley who couldn't go 5 minutes without mentioning she used to model.
It is telling that most her competitors give her a cursory hug after then walk away.
Seriously, what is the point of all this dribble? You think it was her idea to sign their poster board, or that officials are at the meet telling athletes where and when to go someplace?
Are you a male, female, or confused?
