SPEAK YOUR TRUTH QUIETLY AND CLEARLY; AND LISTEN TO OTHERS, EVEN >THE DULL AND IGNORANT; THEY TOO HAVE THEIR STORY.................. Why do you want to start the new thread,seems to me that you are trying to destroy Anthony's reputation,Anthony knows what he is talking about as I said sportsmen are always arrogant. BTW,Stefan is bit more mature than Anthony. If you look into the sportsperson's history,you would know how arrogant they were before and you would aslo know how mature they are now. check any sportsperson's history,check out kasparov for example.Learn from past mistakes.I don't see anything wrong with being arrogant.
