and yeah, last night was pretty awful to watch. hes always stuck in my mind from those early days as to how someone could be so close to the very top of their sport but lack that extra something (motivation?) to work their ass off that little bit extra in order to cement their spot.
its a weird mindset, and def not one solely attributed to Huddleston.
its almost as if he was happy to be 'sort of' there and thereabouts.
