These sports are corrupt and unfair Loveofallsport?! Highly likely that you are just mad because of the huge talent Michael Phelps has. As well as the Americans. I think you just don't like him and are saying stuff to just be a rude person. They haven't worked as hard OBVIOUSLY.

ok i get your poin... im sorry if i was too harsh etc... but still, what you said will also offend many people.. you cant say amerians eat drugs?? i mean hello... and anyway michael phelps has been around for a long long time... it isnt like the chinese who all of the sudden hav a champ over the 200 butterfly... and all the weightlifting is called into question.. just think about what you say ok

for loverofallsport:

It's ridiculous! have you watched the game? the sports which Chinese dominate always just depend on the skill ,eg.diving,table tennis,badminton,It is no use for improve them if take the drugs ,you have no rights to doubt every Chinese Althelets without any evidence,It is aslo unfair ,so why dont you suspect American Althelets (esp. track and swimming which can easily improved by drugs)? It is nothing about free country or express your views.

[Loverofallsport]

just onr more point, you say americanseat drugs... well let me just tell you , there is a program where ALL the americans are taking part in. this program requires athletes to do extra drug testing to prove they are innocent... as long as i know, the chinese dont have such a thing and none of them are part of this program.... and if i remember there has been plenty of controversy concerning the chinese swimmers, divers, gymnasts and their track team.

[Loverofallsport]

o and if you are chinese... i would be ashamed! these games were so corrupt and unfair, and we shall see china's real "Talent" in london... where the chinese cant pay or force the judges to cheat.. because england is a free country where you can express your views... unlike china..

[Loverofallsport]

im sorry, im not american just by the way... and anyway atleast american has ALWAYS had good representation of their athletes in ALL the sports... why is it now that China has all of the sudden got athletes in all the sports... and done you find it a little wierd that china won 27 out of the possible 40 judging events??? and the weightlifting come on dude, how could they win all of that??!!! Because their foo is made of drugs... they are drugs through and through... Period!
