“It’s the same old same old. You’re losing contact at the big heights. What are you gonna do? I told 10 people. I didn’t want to be caught in the meat grinder between 65 and 80. You had to though. You weren’t on. The warmup didn’t go well. You got 55… caught up in that meat grinder. What are ya gonna do? You didn’t have the legs. Her legs are fresh. Hey, it’s a silver medal.”
Hey, asshole coach. You really should look your athlete in the eye when you berate her for “only” winning the silver medal. She’s been pole vaulting for just 4 years and is second only to a seasoned veteran from Russia who had to break the world record to win gold. Jenn Stuczynski, you should fire your coach ASAP.
Beth & I saw this asshole last night and couldn’t believe what we were hearing and seeing either. Unfortunately the best word I had to describe his actions was “typical”.
