 Man up and have a fuckin coffee Member 2086, 9717 posts SQ 340, BP 252.5, DL 300892.5 kgs @ 158kgs UnEq | Sad but typical view of extreme strength from the majority of the public in the UK ! It will always be a freak show and that is just how i like it ................who the f**k wants to be normal anyway ?! | ||

normal people, like me. Member 2325, 550 posts | Post Edited: 20.12.2011 @ 18:00 PM by IainT Can't really see why anyone is objecting strongly. Some of it is a bit naff, but I suspect the large portion of that perception is down to the budget that TV gives it. John Inverdale presented it for ages FFS! The man near defines naff.It sounds like he actually enjoys it, and sees an entertainment value in it too. Could have been a much worse piece. | ||

I think how he feels about the show is how most of the general public see it! If they are watching it, for whatever reason, it's a good thing! | ||

 Member 1323, 449 posts SQ 270, BP 210, DL 320800.0 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq | It was nice that he gave a little mention to the olympics but yet he failed to point out how equally pointless a task it is to either run around in circles... jump in a sand pit... or throw a spear like object without the neanderthal satisfaction of killing your families evening meal for the next week!!! It could be argued that all sports - when you stand back and really look at them - are all f**king ridiculous. Shame he chose to pick the one I love! It's typical for a spineless c**t like him to pick on a niche sport as he knows full well that he'd have his arse in a sling if he ridiculed football in a national paper. It's probably just deep rooted jealousy that's stemmed from the look his wife gives him when he's grimacing carrying in three bags of Waitrose shopping! Anyway, that's just my opinion. I'm now as angry as I am hungry... I'm going to go and stare at an atlas stone in the cold. AAARRRGGGHHHHH | ||

 Glorious spam Member 1563, 3961 posts SQ 180, BP 130, DL 260570.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Sounds like its written by someone who would be really nice to a massive strong bloke because hes scared then slag him off quietly to his missus cos hes jealous. | ||
