concern2:

Just got news that for Cycling, not only did China not successful in the appeal, they got fined! :yikes: :mad: :mad:

I haven't read d details,
but commenting based on face value.
Compare d Chinese cyclist appeal with British Hindes 'intentional' fall, n badminton doubles disqualification,
all competitors r trying to take advantage of rules for their benefit, why different standard applies leh?
Where is d Olympic Spirit?
London 2012 won't want to be remembered as d Farcical Games.

- Brazil Soccer Team not staying in Olympic Village this time in case their legs go nimble like last time.
150,000 condoms were reportedly issued to participants.
