Appreciate it. There was a comment from the founder of SwimSwam yesterday bemoaning that the sport is not more popular largely because it suppresses personalities and would never consider anything like Duplantis versus Warholm
Jakob is so annoying and immature. He doesn't stop yapping his mouth, think he's so great, yet can NEVER win when it matters. Kerr may talk, but at least he stands by what he says. Jakob has yet to prove anything when he talks.
The humiliation he suffered at the Olympics should've taught him a lesson, but clearly not
I mean, is he wrong though? He cannot say anything back because Kerr pretends like he never said it. The only think Jakob can do is wait for him to come out of his little hole so that he can try to beat him. Also, there has only been one global championship since 2023, how about 2022, 2021, and 2019?
Kerr stands by what he says? Are you delusional? Kerr literally just got silver after talking all year about how he is the best 1500m runner in the world and that "his favorite thing about winning was everyone else losing" no joke that was an actual quote by him. He is even more arrogant than Jakob.

I don't like Kerr either. What I meant is that he at least stands by what he says when he says he's gonna beat Jakob. They both embarrass themselves regardless, but Jingy more so, especially with his horrible race tactics.
Though it's kind of funny that the last photo is Jakob losing to Kerr at Pre.
It's interesting how much Kerr managed to get into Jakob's head over the last year or so. He always gives the impression of being nonchalant in most of his interviews but he's obviously been dwelling on some of the stuff Kerr has said. Jakob could be more of a head case than we tend to think.
It's also worth saying that this stuff came out before the Olympics. Finishing off the podium seems to have knocked a bit of humility into him judging by his post-race Insta post, which was pretty magnanimous.
What do we think LetsRun, is Jakob in the wrong here? Or is he right about Kerr?
One (key) part was in my opinion saying that it was disrespectful to Hocker, Nuguse etc to talk about a rivalry between those two, meaning that it was a rivalry between everyone.
