Oh shit. Why was that?<br><br><br>
Just watched modern pentathlon with Chloe Esposito. Fucking hell she started in 7th, with a 45 second handicap. And won by nearly as much! Missed one shot in the required 20. -

My theory is Swisse Vitamins - when Ricky Ponting started with them, his career turned to shit. Bieber O'Connor too.<br><br>
Campbell girls are in ads here for Swisse. So is the high jump girl who missed the final, and a few others.<br><br>
Fucking Swisse. Don't go near that shit!</p></blockquote>
We had that theory in NZ many years ago with Fresh Up. Geoff Howarth and John Walker are two that spring to mind when they started advertising the stuff went to shit. -
Modern Pentathlon looks awesome

<p>So fucking stoked for Eliza McCartney. Considering this was supposed to be a tester run for Tokyo cos she's just a kid, phenomenal result.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I suspect nerves might have got to her a wee bit once she hit her PB - lost her run up - but sky's the limit now. When she nailed the pole position and body tuck, she was so easily clearing it. That national record of 4.80 ain't going to stand long.</p> -

Eliza is also ridiculously likeable. Adds alot to her appeal. My highlight too I reckon.</p></blockquote>Physically attractive, bubbly fun personality. I see a beef and lamb sponsorship in her future -
Is the young guy who won Comm Games mountain biking a shot at Olympic level?

<p>If you don't like her, you don't like people.</p>

<p>She will be advertising beef and lamb and everything else.</p> -
