    Maybe we all should just realize that 60 percent of all of these athletes are blatant fucktards who have lost touch with reality and the normal life.

    Unless it's, ummm, 70 percent.

    I love me them 30 percent, though. Those guys are happy and hungry.

    Most definitely high school cross-country runners.

    What the hell do you mean you have to go on a 'cool down' run before you talk to me? :p

    Do you want to be responsible for their lactic acid?

    This made me laugh so hard that I had to clean coffee off of my laptop. Please tell me that they don't make a journalist actually go after a HS CC player? I feel for you brother.

    It's just another fabulous day in the life of a community sports reporter.

    I nearly had a high school cross country runner puke on me after winning a race. Does that count as arrogance?

    To answer the question posed, Curt Schilling is a baseball player so the answer must be baseball players.

    Are you that out of touch with the life of 70% of the journalists out there? At my 100K daily, we have a cross-country beat writer, and you better believe he chases down "HS CC players" after a race.

    This is the exact reason I always gave cross country runners extra time to recover before interviewing them. :D

    Or for a guy that just sprinted an entire 800 on a hot and humid day...he seemed quite amused as he picked the pieces of cantaloupe out of the rest of what wound up on the grass.

    At least he excused himself.

    High school boys lacrosse players.

    Something about handing adolescent boys swinging sticks against each other satisifes the Freudian side of their souls. In turn, beating other boys up with an extended apparatus suddenly gives them license to treat the rest of the world like crap in real life.
