Now it's just normal and it is either normal (when he wins) or disappointing (when he doesn't) Dominance in any sport sucks Makedonas and maestro 1 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Now we expect the gold and anything less is a massive disappointment I've noticed this with many other sports/athletes who I support, it's more fun watching them rise, once they get to the top it's not as interesting. phelps, maestro and heywoodu 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
