Re Australian girl winning the Triathlon.?

Question

Does it annoy anybody else that the commentators say stuff like "Oh and such a lovely girl too - could have been won by a nicer girl...blah blah blah? For God's sake if she was the world's biggest (you know word starting with B and ending in CH they wouldn't say that would they?) Give em credit for being a great athlete and leave it there

Answer 1

and have u actually met this girl?

she actually is really awesomely nice k?

if she was a b...ch then they wouldnt say she was the nicest person ever and stuff theyd just say shes a good athlete

in this case it was true

so.there.

Answer 2

Some of the commentators are d**khead.

Emma Snowsill is a GOLDEN girl

Answer 3

Good point....I think that too...

Answer 4

Yeah I noticed that too.

I guess Greg Welch who was one of the commentators has been around Triathlon a long time and knows all the Athletes pretty well was looking to fill in air time

Answer 5

Why do you actually care what the commentators say... are you jealous or something... What is the big deal...  

Answer 6

The Golden girl and Nice girl thing does get overdone a bit. Have you noticed that they never say that about Tamsyn Lewis though?

Answer 7

This is where I watched the triathlon.  No commentary is quite refreshing.
