But the reality is, whether Laidlow backs it up or not, one will get to say "I told you so" the other will have to take it, and then I bet dollars to donuts they hug it out, high five, talk the other person up as a great race. This isn't going to be some long term "personal" beef. It'll mellow out, while the PTO may still keep it some contrived on going thing like they have the Lawrence Salthouse "rivalry".For whatever reason my GF just replayed the audio, it's far worse the second time I've listened to it. They should have stopped filming and had his mother spank him. That wasn't "trash talk" or "smack talk". That was just an idiot being allowed to be hurtful. Alex Payne probably should quit to if this is what the PTO is going to put up with.
At least in Rugby you get to hit each other for 80 minutes.
What am I missing here? I've seen or heard absolutely nothing hurtful or even disrespect, just a bit of banter.
Can't work out why Sam Long was almost in tears either.
100% agree, theres nothing in it... Sam Long lost his shit because Laidlow gave him (and Lionel) a bit of banter about their swims... Sam Long looks like he can dish it out but doesnt like it back. He was happy enough to try and trash Laidlow's bike/run until he realised he was getting laughed at. There's some absolute snowflakes in this thread btw, how some people get through life is beyond me. Laidlow was clearly trying to have a bit of fun back and forth and Sam Long just took the bait and had nothing to give back, which is a shame as it could have been a fun interview between them.
