is it just me, or do u guys also find that the media is very harsh on the olympic athletes?
a few days ago, there was an article on a badminton player who as a result of her slipping, she lost a medal. and in that article, there was the line "she has only herself to blame". and the rest of the article went on to emphasize how much it was her fault that she lost.
OUCH!
and in a national paper too! goodness! the girl is probably beating herself up over it already and to read that article will be like rubbing salt into the wound.
whats with all the anger and slamming of athletes anyway? they have obviously tried their very best and probably feel more crap over a loss than any spectator ever could feel. to us its just a sport on tv that may or may not bring our country glory, but to them, its their life.
its so easy to sit around coffee tables insulting them and blaming them for not winning anything for our country, but what have YOU ever done for your country anyway?
at least they have put themselves out there, whether or not it was for personal glory.
