I agree. Not everyone can win. But everyone can prepare and give it their all.
This guy did neither.
And no class, no respect, no shame and hopefully no endorsements.
Dude, I rocked!
One wag on another site said he "underwent random testing and came up negative for medals". ROFLMAO.

Good one!
Maybe it's that new lingo, I guess "rock" now means "suck" Kinda like how "bad" used to actually mean "good."
