You know, they are having golf at the next olympics.
FFS!

'Full credit to our Olympians, but they had four years to prepare.'
I think you'll find they do other stuff as well! Such as winning the TdeF. And if not, they probably have 'normal jobs' as well as training.

Yes, but it's only cycling.
Re: Sports Personality of the Year - Skippernick - 05-12-12
And Murray has absolutly zero personality, Tori. :pokefun
Re: Sports Personality of the Year - Tori - 05-12-12
Because you know him personally of course.
Re: Sports Personality of the Year - Skippernick - 05-12-12
Actually i do. Get out of that and stay fashionable.
Well i don't really, but just watch his interviews.
Re: Sports Personality of the Year - Tori - 06-12-12
So you know nothing. Other than, omg, what you see on TV! So it must be true.

Well Tori, with that in mind then none of us could possibly comment or vote on any the "personalities" because we only watch them on TV or from a long distance in a stadium, but never actually meet any of them.

It shouldn't be a popularity contest. It's what they've achieved that counts. That's why the comments of 'it's only tennis' etc I find annoying. They all deserve to win on their own merits.
Re: Sports Personality of the Year - Skippernick - 06-12-12
I agree Tori, which begs the question why was it changed from "Sports Review of the Year" to "Sports Personality of the Year"
Considering the wider general public will read/hear the title and choose from that suggestive title explains some of the weird choices over the year, mainly overpaid footballers.

If you're taking the "it's only tennis/cycling/*sport*" route then Ennis should win as she competed in more than one sport

I thought it was one sport with multiple disciplines?

Lol, but you've spelt murder wrong
.If it's based on what they have achieved then why has Phil Taylor never won it ? Oh yes, I know, darts is not a sport !
In reality there are so many who deserve to win it this year, Wiggins, Ennis, Murray, McIlroy, Frankel ......

What about team of the year - guess it would include the Olympic cycling team(s) But I'd like to see the England 15 that beat the All Blacks by 20 points last weekend - I actually jumped out of my chair & ran round the room yelling 'dish it out to 'em' at the top of my lungs - highly undignified for a man of my years!!
