Europe 3k Winner is an arsehole

I was expecting to see a tired runner shoulder past to get off the track but instead I see potentially the worst show of sportsmanship I've seen in years, the other time being this same guy! I for one will be sending the above letter on.

Even the NBA would suspend an athlete for such a display. This guy should not be making the trip to London.

What other sort of fight is there. You love these stupid expressions on here 'fist fight' Ha!

Maybe over in England you don't fight this way, but here in America we love to have knife fights, shaving cream fights, fist fights, bottle throwing fights, hair pulling fights, gun fights, slapping fights, shoving fights, snow ball fights, food fights, etc.

As you can see we need to specify what kind of fight this punk was in.

Anyone who doesn't think this is funny, is an as$hole.

And to the people sending emails... You have no life. Grow up.

I am french.. but also think this is not acceptable.

You can directly go complain on the wall of the french Track and field federation, there is a topic about his race a few lines below.

This is a real Frenchman.

I didn't realize he got silver in the 2008 olympics in the steeple.

He already messed with the mascot at the 2010 European Championships:

Okay, in this video, it almost looks like he is just trying to be funny. Maybe he thinks pushing mascots is funny and he isn't mad or anything. But this is the same guy that got into a real fight with Baala. Hard to tell for me what is going through his head. Was he trying to be funny and just failed, or was he was actually angered by the mascots somehow?

I remember one time I got beat in close race by a rival. I went over to my dad right after and my dad was feeling cheeky and said something to the effect of "why'd you let him beat you" not being serious at all, just jokingly. So I threw what little bit of water I had left in my little plastic cup at him as a joke. We both were laughing. People thought I was mad for losing and that's why I threw the water at my dad. People thought I was a jerk for throwing the water at him, when in reality my dad and I were just joking around together. I wasn't mad about losing the race, it was not an important one. I was happy to have a competitor push me to the line. But man, a few people took me for a big jerk without really knowing what was happening between my dad and I.

He doesn't look like he's trying to be funny.

It was pretty aggressive if you ask me. Unless that's his idea of joking around.

So you think assaulting 14 year old girls is hilarious? Now we know how you spend your free time.

You could tell that is a 14 year old girl in the costume? That is amazing man. I guess child labor laws are a US thing?

You knew that it was a 14-year-old girl in the costume when you made the comment the other poster was responding to.

You're joking right? He walked right towards the mascot (who, as we've learned, was a 14 year old girl). He's a dick. And to satisfy me it'd be great if he was a champion and not a dick. I don't think that's asking too much. I don't give a sh*t if he's the world's best chance at making it to mars. That guy is a dickhead who doesn't deserve to be in the Olympics.

Done. This guy is a prick

I hope he tries that against Evan Jager. Jager will dunk him in the Steeple chase pit like a freshman in the boy's bathroom the first day of high school.

Jager would be broken in half by a shove from that little french poodle. Mekhissyfit couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag, but he could still wipe the floor with Jager. Now that I think about it, are we sure that the 14-year old girl in the costume wasn't Evan Jager?

Hes on the juice thats why hes always so angry

Oh, bravo, bravo, très belle page de publicité pour l'image du Français à l'étranger qui confond franc-parler et manque total de tact et de dignité. Peu importe qu'un athlète national se comporte comme une racaille devant les caméras du monde entier, il porte les couleurs de la France et on le soutient envers et contre tous. Honte à toi. Honte à la France.

ça doit être Samir Nasri à l'oeuvre dans le message initial. Décidément, en ce moment on dirait que nos sportifs de haut niveau ont décidé de nous foutre la honte!!
