  • If you finish one of those things you're a winner, I don't care what place you finish that takes guts!

  • All the epo in the world for Vuckovic didnt get the gold!

  • Someone should teach these sports commentators how to pronounce the sport ... there's only one 'A' in triathlon.

  • @peteblueeyesfromBI He lost the race in the very last 200. It's one thing for Vuskovich to participate and be proud but he celebrated as if he won the race. His reaction should have been more of disgust for a race he should have won. The celebration is a bit over the top and arrogant. I know all about olympic spirit but this guy celebrated so much that 3rd place almost caught him. You don't see 3rd place doing acting like that.

  • @bluenosecottagepei thanks man! It's nice to get some positive feedback on youtube :-)

  • @peteblueeyesfromBI Perfectly said!  Bravo

  • @jthigbee certainly you've never heard of the olympic spirit. It's not everything about winning or losing, but then again you're an american.."Second place is the first loser"; "You don’t win silver, you lose gold"; "If you’re not here to win, you’re a tourist"; "No one trains for second place." I'm sure you remember those from atlanta 96

  • @bconsitt proud of what ? moron

  • @jthigbee If I ran a Triathlon with the world's best, and came second... I'd be pretty happy too
