Mr.J Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 My country sucks at sports. On Very rare occasions we win a medal here and there.we treat qualifying for olympics as a achievement in itself.sports person are treated like dirt.unless you win Olympic medal no one gives a shit about you.win a medal and then you get rewards from government,endorsement deals e.t.c. This doesn't apply for cricketers.they are treated like fucking celebrities here.So in India either become a cricketer or if you are in to any other sport then win a Olympic medal otherwise you are nothing.Being the absolute best only counts.

bjornmma1 Posted August 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 Wayde Van Niekerk with a mindblowing 400m world record in the olympics final ! 43"03 from lane 8, the worst possible lane to run a 400m from as you have nobody to aim at and can only guess how near the others are. What a guy, the first ever by the way to run a sub 10" 100m, sub 20" 200m and sub 44" 400m ! http://static3.businessinsider.com/image/57b11b81ce38f231008b6a0f-1500/wayde%20van%20niekerk.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterLeader Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 Don't need to aim at anyone if you're faster than everyone haha. Yeah but it's motivation, much like Usain Bolt last night who was near the back at one point but pushed forward to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you never ran track in competition so don't understand it. No offense intended. In a race like the 400m, having a line 3/4/5 is an advantage of the rest of the field. The outside lane leaves you pretty much blind and guessing, while the first lane is difficult as well due to the corners that don't 'accept' speed as easily.

Steel Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 I think everyone knows about the lanes, corners, qualifying etc to be fair. I'm even an expert on the pommel horse now after watching it for 5 minutes last night while the adverts were on for Captain America. Heard Baseball is going to be an Olympic sport? No one in the UK plays rounders past primary school, but its a pro sport in the USA. Be funny seeing batters diving out of the way of those American pitchers, UK will need Eddie the Eagle to take the sport up for laughs.

Erik Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 I just guessed you didn't knew, damn you! To be honest, I actually know fucking nothing about running and haven't watched a single race at this Olympics, but even I can see there's an advantage to being in a position where you can both have some gauge of your relative speed and smoother turns.

Baseball is a pro sport in more countries than just the USA like China, Cuba , and Japan. And baseball used to be an olympic sport but they removed it.

Steel Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 So could Cuba, China or Japan beat the USA ? How many players on a baseball team? I might make it as an Olympian yet. I was a wicket keeper at cricket so I could catch the pitchers throw, I get to throw my gloves off and fight every minutes too so this sounds awesome.

kenlow73 Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 I don't think any of sends they're pro players to the olympics though because it's not like Football, they won't take a break for international play. I know Primeir does the break for for World Cup do they do it for the Olympics too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 Olympic soccer isn't taken too seriously, the problem for GB is the individual Country's associations not being in agreement it's not an England team or a Scotland team but an alliance so there's a problem there and clubs don't want their stars getting injured. They don't like to release them for internationals so you can guess how the Olympics would be thought of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
