The point is that those guys do things that are admireable. People often say " I would like to throw a fast ball like A-rod or Hit like Jeter. I would like to have the hands of Marvin Harrison or the arm of Peyton manning. No one says I want to talk like Ronnie Coleman or have the health of Flex.
...and no one says "I want to talk like A-rod"...or..."I want the health of Orlando Pace"
If you're going to use a context...use a correct one. A BB fan says "I'd like to look like Mark Dugdale", or "man, I'd love to have arms like Ronnie Coleman".
