Please tell me why everyone should be a fan of Nick Symmonds? I live in Eugene and have for many years.
Someone mentioned first that they like him because he "can get girls" and also that he is cool/seems cool.
These are the reasons I think most guys that run a lot like myself, especially young guys like him. I don't see him as "cool" or envy him for being able to
get girls." I see him as a dumba$s and am tired of him.
What has he "done on and off the track" that is so special?
What is he doing for the sport? The fact that he sees himself as an entertainer not a runner is the epitome of being a jacka$s to me.
For anyone that has had any remote amount of success in life and is older than 22 I don't know who likes him.
He seems like someone that is constantly looking for attention and that is it. I am sure his friends he in Eugene that he "dedicated his race in Moscow to" really appreciated it. If he wants to make statement and do something positive for them why doesn't he do something in Eugene for them to help them out in a positive way? Who has a date with Paris Hilton and then immediately wants to tell every detail of it to a newspaper?
He appears like someone who wants to prove if is important or simply gain attention. He is the type of person I crush in the business world all of the time. I laugh at week minded people like Nick Symmonds. You want to look up to someone look up to someone that doesn't have to tell you how good he is and is doing something that has a benefit on people outside of simple entertainment. Look up to a good Doctor or a teacher etc. Look at him as entertainment. Don't look up to him as a "cool guy".
Jealous much? Wow pal don't be so transparent.
