See, you are the "pessimist" again. Anyway, I recently checked the super-series ranking. I was surprised by how well TH did. In 5 SS events he gleaned almost 35000 points. Only less efficient than LD (5 events, 40440 pts) and LCW (8 events, 56??? pts). But more efficient than PG, CJ, SDK etc etc. Of course, there is no contradiction to your theory.
LOL, "nice" thread LD and LCW are clearly two best players in recent years... aside all of that, i'm still wondering that would i be remembering those badminton players who win SS titles and/or them who were Olympic or World champions and who gave their country pride and joy in so many years ahead...??? ah idk...am still amateur!
Pessimist in me, again??.. - Really??..i thought i'm simply pointing out the reality??.. - Yes, i'm sure you know part of the reason why TH has raked abt 35k pts. See also my post #108. - I'm open w/anything which people can point to a contradiction to my theory... ..a few would even remember who won the "Kacang Telur Brand" Championships or "Kacang Puteh Brand" Championships..
yes u rite LCW and LD are ss level players and then LD and TH are WC and OG level players soooo which one is better?? ss level or wc and og level? ask LCW which one he want,amount of ss title or one wc and one og medal
i think it's buncha flowerly bs public relation craps just look at the french open introduction ceremony. Does his body language, eye contact to go with those warm and heart-felt words in his blog? lol After reading that blog for the first time, i thot TH would jump on LD and start hugging him and do cheek to cheek greeting LOL
You got all that from "We don't have a close relationship but we respect and admire each other"? Ah, cooler, such spitefulness towards Mr. Hidayat as always.
Sure.. True, TH has the OG and WC titles secured in his pocket...oh, and throw in those 2 AG titles as well... But, what has he done since to back up those major titles????...in a way, with his empty cabinet of SS titles, winning only those 2 titles make it seems like they were stolen or gifted to him... The only difference i see between him and LD is: LD has a bigger sack of SS titles to accompany his numerous AE, WC and OG titles. So, which one is better if you ask me? I'd say, it's better to follow in the footsteps of LD. If Taufik really is an OG and WC winner, then start showing the world he means business and start winning some SS. Where's the consistency??..
i just ask u about ss and og/wc which one is better i never say that TH better than LD..and i never say that TH is better than LCW..they all are great player.. LD is a king of badminton now...unless he try to play MD maybe in TH dream had been given chance to choose mount of SS or couple of prestigious title..and he choose the pretigious title
Heh, an unlikely explanation I think a good point was made earlier that Taufik has had difficulty winning tournaments that require 6 victories in a row as opposed to 5. He's always been inconsistent. As a fan that can make things a bit disheartening at times ... but it keeps you on your toes
obviously u bought his sell job. hey, i'm not gonna stop you but at least i didn't label u as a gullible ______ person. Everything i've said about TH has historical data to stand on. Where are yours?
of all the late night show comedians, i like David Letterman the least. U know why? His jokes sometime are so crappy (ie. not funny at all) that audience don't laugh but he laugh it off himself anyway. Kinda like a self back tracking, saving face gesture i guess. So when his sexcapade with his lady staff was revealed, it kinda prove my view i held on his character as well ---> a fake, a low class comedian. So, u think i bot a fake racket from TH when my whole point in this thread was that he's a fake?
You should watch Eddie Izzard. If the audience doesn't laugh he mimes taking notes on a notepad and mutters "should be funnier..."
What is my answer??.. ..if i want to go around and brag that i've won the OG and WC, of course, i'd take the OG and WC. But looking at his accomplishments now, it seems like his WC and OG were stolen or gifted... Stop bringing past glories and start bringing present...and future glories!
i don't watch david letterman show, why should i for eddie? i watched only 2 of his earlier shows when i was a young student back then. that's all. hmmm, i wonder who's the real troll here
