is it cheating to play tactically, runners do it, cyclists do it, why can't the badminton players do it?

I guess nobody here's a fan of the olympics Big Grin... what does that say about the demographic of pig pen trollers?

As for the badminton players, yeah, saw the video. It was pretty abysmal. They weren't even volleying really, they just serve then let the shuttlecock fall to the ground. There's a limit to how baldfaced you can be.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?

Wow, I thought I hated the Olympics (I always have before!) but I thoroughly enjoyed this one. I thought the opening ceremony was genuine and surprisingly 'real' in the sense of representing British culture. I'm not even vaguely patriotic, often the opposite in fact, but I was touched by it. And I hate watching sports, like football/rugby/whatever, but athletics I find quite enjoyable to watch, especially stuff like diving and gymnastics : D ending ceremony was a bit crap but had some good parts.

as far as Olympics go i agree that it was a great games.
it will be even better if they carry through the promise of giving the landscaped areas to the people for recreation. some lucky Londoners

So what football team do you support, Billy?
Before criticising a person, try walking a mile in their shoes. Then when you do criticise them, you're a mile away.....and you have their shoes.

I knew it. Is there anyone abroad who doesn't support Man U!
