Bakkies Botha: Hero for a Day

You maybe one of the best rugby players today, and I still might be peeved at you for getting into our boyfriend's(Tom Croft) face but today, you are a hero. Why? Well apparently you're not as dumb as I first suspected (what? I can be wrong too, you know!) and you proved that Mike Phillips is as dumb as and arrogant as we all suspected:

There was, sadly, though, no award for chirp of the year. If there had been, that would have gone to Bakkies Botha for the short conversation he had with Lions scrumhalf Mike Phillips. With Phillips getting all uppity, Botha gave him a look: "You've got beautiful blue eyes."

Phillips was stunned and walked away confused. Pierre Spies, who was nearby, almost wet himself laughing. "That was the best chirp I have ever heard."

Mike Phillips' interpretation:

You have also proclaimed yourself the best-looking scrum-half in the world.

That was after a few beers, mind, and after we'd just beaten England, so I was probably feeling a little bit cocky at the time. I said that to Gats [Wales coach, Warren Gatland]. We were just messing about really. But it's true, I think. On the Lions Tour [South Africa Lock] Bakkies Botha kept calling me, "sexy blue eyes". I thought he was just trying to wind me up, but he kept trying to talk to me after the game as well…

...except that he was trying to wind you up but you can't fight narcissism and arrogance...or stupidity, can you Mike, because your natural conclusion, was that he did think you were 'sexy'. Because everyone's in love with you! Even the formidable Bakkies Botha, who could crush you with his finger...BITCH PLEASE! GET OVER YOURSELF!

I could go on forever with this but I won't, he doesn't deserve anymore attention!

PS Wow, I'm certainly on the Mike Phillips hate train but he makes it so easy.

Oh.

Get ready for some snark and rugby smut!


Apparently Mike Phillips is hot...

Personally he doesn't tickle my fancy. I honestly don't get the appeal, for me he's not that good looking, its only his eyes that could make him but word on the street is he's kind of an asshole and coupled with the fact that in 15 years he will look like David James (bad guy from District 9) Phillips is a no go for me.



Recently he broke up with his girlfriend to be with the overrated Welsh singer Duffy.

Really?


Well, apparently Mike Phillips broke up with his ex through a note (was someone watching Sex and the City?) saying he wanted to be the Beckham of rugby or something to that affect, his response:

Your ex-girlfriend told a tabloid that you wanted to live a celebrity lifestyle like David Beckham, so you ditched her for a more famous woman.

Er, no. I don't think so. All I want to do is be with someone who's got their own thing going on, their own job and their own career; who's independent. I just want someone who's similar to me and who wants to do well for themselves in life.

OH SNAP!



OH SNAP!


PLEASE, you know its true, homeboy didn't even have enough decency or courage to break up with his live-in girlfriend, in person. And while I'm sure Duffy's a lovely woman, based on his ex, I'm thinking Duffy's not exactly his type, ya know? She would fit better with Mark Ronson or someone of his ilk.

And if Mike Phillips wants to be the Beckham of rugby he's far behind Danny Cipriani, why? Well for one thing he was invited to an Armani fashion show, rubbing elbows with the designer himself AND he's hitting this:



Yeah, Mike, your leagues behind, LEAGUES!
