I sometimes wonder if those fanbois really believe that Sharma is the second coming or if they just do it to piss other people off. Perhaps it's the US version of posting 'yeah, but what's he done on grit?' after every new milestone is reported.

I hope they are just taking the piss, as the alternative is that they genuinely believe that Sharma has some kind of divine mandate to set climbing standards. It's a bit like the clueless cycling 'fans' who declare that Lance Armstrong is the greatest cyclist EVAAAR, conveniently forgetting about Merckx, Hinault et al.
