NavyBillsFan Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Wonder how quick all the companies are pulling from this guy.... What a waste of time for this guy. I think he was over cocky and just too cool for the games... Biggest flops have to be team Canada mens hockey, USA womens hockey and dear ole Bode....
C.Biscuit97 Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 Quote from Bode: "Me, it's been an awesome two weeks," Miller said. "I got to party and socialize at an Olympic level." I like to party and have a good time and realize you should have fun over there. But you're representing your country and he just acts like he didn't really care. I guess he won the right to do whatever he wants but I hate rooting for a guy like that.
The Senator Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 Don't know if anyone saw Stephanie Birkitt's interview w/Bode miller - it was pretty telling of how he approached the games... Birkitt-Miller Interview... (you need Quicktime 7)
gmac17 Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 i didn't watch the video clip, but i've seen a few things and I don't mind him that much based on what i've seen. Sort of an idiot, but he doesn't talk about how great he is, didn't come into the games talking about how he was going to win 5 medals, and he doesn't seem to complain or anything. The guy is like a rockstar in europe, and although he didn't turn down the magazine covers or interviews, he didn't seem like too much of a jerk imo.

No matter what the consequences (even if they are his own idacy induced) he seems to except them and not make any excuses. From a personal responsibilty side... He is just telling it like it is... No matter how dumb you or anybody thinks it is. Very tolerable, IMO.
