Default shane warne... hero or zero

in a new biography of shane warne, the author claims he has slept with over a thousand women...
does this make him a hero or a zero?
most blokes would think this is an achievement...
but what if a chick did the same thing? i can only imagine what shed be classed as...
this is putting his achievements as a cricketer aside...
hes a legend on the field...
what do people think of his off field achievements...

On the Field, a credit to the game and a master of the spin. Off the field, total loser with no credibility. Anyone who would backdoor a partner is slime IMO. For heavens sake, if you have to play, end the relationship first. At least then Simone would have been hurt only once. My 2 cents.

I voted hero because he's a dead set legend ON THE CRICKET FIELD. He's pretty much the greatest bowler ever and has been instrumental in the strength of the Australian cricket team. This is the context of my vote.

AWAY from the cricket field he's a complete meathead. As for being a cheating pants man it's a disgraceful way to conduct yourself but there are thousands of other guys out there just like him. He's only singled out because of his fame.

Being an avid cricket player/supporter all my life, In my opinion Warney is a cricket legend. However, his off the field antics leave a lot to be desired.(Along with a lot of other famous people in all areas of life) Re: Mel Gibson, Pamela Anderson, Prince Harry, Wayne Carey, Brittany Spears, Bill Clinton, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Kate Moss.
The list could go on forever!!!!!!!!!!

Warney is arguably the greatest bowler ever, and for that he is a legend. On the field. Off the field he is nothing short of an arrogent pig.

I agree.

My mum interrupted him for a photo when he was out at dinner one night (with Hamill and Simons), they were all friendly and he didn't act like an arrogant pig one bit. I think he got my mum's number too : J/K...

I think once that sort of information (HUGE number of sexual partners) becomes public knowledge (whether it be the Australia wide basis of Shane's or throughout the office/social group etc of another person) people make a judgement on that piece of information alone, separated from the other aspects that make up the complete package that is the person.

I voted loser. Anyone who has slept with that many people has issues. If they arent resolved by the 50th person...well...the issues must be deeply ingrained.

Aside from that YUCK YUCK YUCK!!! lol

He's a cricketer, and a very good cricketer, thats all i care about.

His private life is his own, who are we to judge him, its not his wish for it to be made public, it may not be the correct way to behave but thousands of others do what he does in private and don't get canned for it, he only gets singled out because it makes ratings...

I cannot agree with big pete more here.. He is the best bower ever, and his stats show this, so therefor he is a legend.

Even though his personal life is his problem, i do feel sorry for Simone

Why are people voting he is a loser? I know why beacuse of his personal life - if not fabricated somewhat - has been put out there in the public.

I am sure if your personal life went completely public lots of people will think you are losers as well.

He is a great Cricketer - his cricket and thats all this poll should be about

Not his personal life as thats what it should be PERSONAL

I agree the poll should be about him as a Cricketer & if it where I would vote him as a "Super Hero" legend of the game without a question.

As for his personal life (I dont agree with his antics personally but im not going to judge him either & come up with the opinion of looser) his personal life is excatly that.

I am sick of all the talk about it. I agree with 4Vman about his private life. Sure, I do not condone cheating on partners and the like, but again it is his private life.

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone...
