When did Cooler and myself make the statement of "have a public medical investigation to verify his claims"? Especially Cooler didn't participate with this at all... just 2 or 3 posts at most...with 1 to 2 sentences each.
you have to ask them. cooler didn't participate? hmm... he must have lurked off somewhere... you said that Lin Dan had himself examined in swiss open while Lee didnt which made Lee more suspicious, hence you are saying that if Lee should have called a doctor and be examined
Can you honestly say that the highlighted portion is only your assumption of what I posted, and not actually "what I posted". If I remember correctly, didn't you claim that Chen Hong's walk over during Macao open was not legitimate as well because he didn't prove to you that he really was injured? with regarding to Cooler's participation, please refer to the my most recent post above. Read carefully... please.
I can't prove to them whether I watch it or not... I hope they don't ask me to prove it,too... or I can say something like " I don't need to prove to you that I watched the match..."
this is what you said: At least he withdrew, and he was examined by a doctor in front of the audience. He didn't finish the game, then have his coach claimed that he didn't lose due to his opponent beat him, but he was injured, so his opponent was spared from a defeat. That is a big difference. You are saying the big differences is Lin Dan being examined, while Lee not being examined. You are directly saying that the big differences between Lee and Lin's innocence is the presence of a doctor. How can this be any clearer?
I am willing to stand up for my point of view... but it seems like not everyone has the guts to do so. Not like we are swearing at each other and bullying each other... unless BC forum discourages any kind of disagreement or debate among members.
Me too as I was watching the 3rd set, I was surprised at the way LCW played...I find it strange with no jumping smash and even when he jumped to smash, he did not jump as high as before and I was thinking the same as you that LCW employed the wrong strategy but if it was a knee problem that would explain the way he played...Bao win is a win, cos if it was Bao who was injured, I would say the same too for LCW or whoever. Cooler said Bao played like a girl, but this match Bao was the aggressor compared to LCW.
Louisa, UN these days are all talk and more talk and has no bite and no influence...check the war in Iraq and that pretty much said it all....Maybe if you play peacemaker and cook up a storm just as you posted before to tempt Hauge may works...hehehe!!!
You can praise your hero in which ever way you want but except to discount the winner. Win is a Win and I think almost if not all Pro players does carry some injury more or less. And IMO, that's an lame excuse.
And that is your opinion versus mine. If LCW did not have the knee problem, I would not have said what I said -- it would have been something like "BAO won on form" or something similar.
I think that's beyond just simply your opinion because you called Bao is lucky to win and you're discounting Bao's effort to excuse LCW's lost. Not to mention Bao has played both TH and CJ in 3 sets before the match with LCW, how much luck Bao could have without the skills that on par with the best???
I watched the game live on our TV ASTRO. After the 1st game, I thought LCW would 'romp in'. But in the second set, it confounded me when I saw him playing long rallies instead of doing what he did in the 1st game. Clearly, I could see something was wrong coz he wasn't smashing. As a fan, I would believe Misbun -- I don't think he makes up stories just to please.
So what if I think he was lucky to win this ? It is still my opinion - did I force it down your throat ?
I din watch the semis..... i thought Boa was on great form when i heard he beat LCW. But after watching the Finals (& losing money on Bao ) Bao doesn't look to be on 'great form' so IMHO, perhaps LCW injury can be considered true. No credit to be taken away from Bao tho.... a win is a win.
whether it is true whether lcw was playing with injury at that time doesn't matter anymore. he lost. bcl didnt win either, LD won. that's it. IMO, complaining the head coach or giving excuses after losing are nothing but lame. why dont you do that while you are winning?? then you are the man.
