Russell Crowe's A Good Sport

We think this is a pretty awesome way to respond to the media.

After he was put on blast from an Aussie tabloid writer for eating tacos hand-in-hand with his cycling regimen, Russell Crowe decided to get even…By throwing down a challenge.

He had his reps call the columnist and invite her on his 13 mile cycle run and see if after she endured that torture, she didn’t also want a taco or two.

Of course, she happily accepted (whose gonna say no to Russell Crowe?) and we hear she did pretty well.

No word, though, if they hit Del Taco on their way back.

See, sometimes we can all get along!
