Hocker emotional interview post milrose 3k

Pretty cool. Anyone else notice how dilated his pupils are though?

Get a haircut

yeah he's so high rn

LOL. He cried because he lost, how brave!

FFS!!!!!!!!!!

This totally explains the man bun!

When you hate to lose to the point of CRYING, you wonder what PEDs you might be willing to try.

Listen to what he said at the end , Grant had to burn it out of him by pushing , and he said his legs hurt w 200 to go. Our two best ( plus nuguse) showed out today

Yeah, downvote me, but if this was Nikki crying after their race, you all would be roasting the sh*t out of them.

Dude needs to man the F up. As the other posted said, he's definitely on the sauce because only people that dope act this way when they lose.

Sounds like he internalized a lot of pressure over the last 6 months about being the Olympic Champ. He came into this race supremely confident and in the shape of his life, and even though he ran under the WR, he got outkicked by a 10k guy. He said he doesn't know what he's feeling, but my read is that it's just a pressure release. I'm sure this will give him a bit of a spark to chase that 5k time.

Most empathetic letsrun poster.

In case anyone wanted an example of toxic masculinity, read the above^. Making fun of one of the most successful men in the world (a literal Olympic Champion who just ran the #2 time ever) for being emotional is a prime example. And insulting him while he's being vulnerable, on camera for the entire world, is just incredibly gross.

An example of good masculinity, and something that takes actual strength, is going on camera for an interview an being open and honest with how you feel, and congratulating the person who just beat you on a great race. Not putting down Fisher, while still wanting more out of himself, is exactly what you should want out of someone.

This is a stepping stone to getting even better but one thing is for sure, he has a gold medal but is not satisfied.

In daily preparation with defined goals, a person at this level KNOWS what he is capable of if the conditions are right. However, the one completely uncontrollable factor is that other half of 1% of world class athletes on the planet are able to understand this mentality at the same level and you are going to have to deal with them in the heat of battle.

Competition = Together, we shall see how good we can be!

The war is coming. Don't confuse meekness with weakness.

Kind of cringe tbh. Nordic Chad Jakob would remain stoic.

He’s one of the good guys, yall, been that way since high school, which again, was relatively recent.

You are the biggest American jock rider on here. You routinely say that Jakob is “dodging” this meet when he is literally the one that races the most (and wins the most). Learn to give the same respect to other runners.

I do not personally hate him and he seems like a fantastic human but I am allowed to "sports hate" him and root against him in competition, that is what professional sports is. Smart people can separate the two.

I have empathy for things that matters and crying when you lose a race isn't one of those things.

I bet Rojo thinks it's pretty silly too. What say you Rojo?

Sorry but he's a Kamala supporter. Can't support him. MAGA!!!

You can tell he’s not used to be outkicked in the last 100. Losing this race will make him better outdoors than winning it, keep him hungry. Lose both these guys.

You have no clue. World class racers have many different reactions to losing. He is portraying intensity and passion, not weakness. Grow up.
