Jakob's an awful hypocrite. Well able to throw shade in interviews with newspapers himself. Yet labels Kerr a coward for calling a spade a spade where Jakob's entourage is concerned in a podcast. Entertaining for the sport, UFC-esque, but double standards. Expects others to take his sh1tet@lk but not to give any back. Big ego. Little snowflake underneath it all.

In the femboys' words - if he is just being honest and not meaning to insult anyone, then so is next guy Josh who is just walking the talk. Gotta be able to take the heat. I'm sensing that the slightest deflation of Jakob's ego is rattling him badly.

I think Kerr’s most insulting comment was as follows (and it came before any real insults from Jakob): “He is high on himself this one…” -The “high” thing is totally OK in my eyes. But the “this one” sort of says that Josh try to psychoanalyse and mark Jakob as a poor care needing unhinged self obsessed one… And this phrasing seemed intentional (from a raging guy who felt very much disrespected of his view of himself as “always been very good”, and now the best md runner in the world… -Jakob as being sick, and the consistently better runner unbearable insults to Kerr’s ego).
Thats a pretty convoluted reading (not saying its impossible) but it requires a lot of assumptions.
“He is high on himself this one…”
The more parsimonious reading is that "this one" is referring to Jakob as one of many runners, emphasizing that most runners are not that high on themselves and that this one is.
To me, this is a nothing statement. Jakob is high on himself, and apparently is a very sensitive person. That's ok, its kind of fun that he gets all riled up by much of nothing. Can't imagine how he'd handle real trash talk.

Josh's "this one" = Jakob's "next guy".

Kerr, triumphantly reveling in the delighted ecstasy of the Hayward Field crowd after setting the mile world record, approaches Jakob as he is bent over on the track. Jakob’s skeletal frame is heaving, shuddering, unable to breathe after choking on Kerr’s dust for the last 3 minutes and 41 seconds of arduous competition. Slowly, Jakob raises his head to meet Josh’s gaze as Kerr’s menacing shadow envelops him in darkness, literally and figuratively. Jakob’s face, flushed red from exhaustion and humiliation, is strained in the agony of defeat once again. Kerr nudges Jakob’s thin, suffering body and utters only a simple question: “Who’s your daddy?”

He is using more everyday language to identify what is likely fact, that Jakob is a narcissist. Everything Jakob says broadcasts his egotism.
You really like Jakob?

Like a lot of other posters here. You haven't noticed.
