I think you know the answer to that
I think we are lucky as a nation to have her in our midsts. Athletes like Paula are rare, yet people like her are rarer still. To me she is a female Emil Zatopek - a true heroine and a worthy role model.
I know some people have knocked George Best - but he was a worthy winner too. Supremely talented, charming and generous - but with a weakness. He at least has never blamed anyone else for his troubles and while he may have behaved embarrassingly at times, he never behaved badly. He has borne his troubles with humour and humility - as of course has Jane Tomlinson whose courage has now been brought so touchingly to an even wider audience. She is an example to us all.
Also with you on GB, to those of us old enough to remember him in his heyday, he was not only a great player, but drop dead bloody gorgeous too...
pardon me while I go off for a little nostalgic reverie.......
It would be a bit like seeing the royal family in bermuda shorts and hankys on their heads.
Hope you are not the aforementioned famous athlete in black bodice because if you are, on reflection I think you looked really nice, gorgeous infact, damn sexy, wow...
Somehow she is 'our girl' and I am so proud of her. She must have such incredible inner strength but yet is also so graceful and gentle. She looked absolutely beautiful, I thought.
lets go round his and beat him up, - anyone coming??????
--not terribly well is the answer, and particlarly not after a gym session!!!!
Still, it all turned out well in the end – the right girl won!
"imbecilic tart"? "overrated moron"?
You wanna go on the George Best thread on general. They've spent three days now slogging everyone and his dog off!!!
(slogging a dog off is something totally different)
As for "imbecilic tart" & "overrated moron" well, as the saying goes "if the cap fits" and who can seriously argue that the "achievements" of pretty boy Beckham are even on the same planet as Paula Radcliffe's?
...and George Best would run rings 'round Beckham anyday (except when he's pissed of course!)
I'm really glad Paula won and it was thoroughly deserved, but what a mess they made of the trophy presentations! Everyone standing around not knowing what to do, and Paula looking decidely awkward and uncomfortable.
It was great to see a worthy winner, but I don't think there's any need to be so harsh about poor old Beckham. He's a nice bloke, OK - just gets too much exposure because he's a footballer.
(I heard a rumour he was going to put a DVD on his christmas present wish list, but he couldn't spell it!)
By the way on the George Best point, I am not sure that being his wife prevents her being a blonde bint. Was the award for lifetime achievement or the achievement of still being alive ? He may have had great talent but the greater the talent the greater the waste.
