My advice: NO match involving judges....No gymnastics, no boxing, no karate, no taek kwondo, no wushu, and the likes....
haha Taufik definitely very interesting.... I haven't been following the news because my family has cancelled the subscription of The Star etc because of all the propaganda Guess BC forums will have to do for my badminton news cravings! haha
Bad line calls happens every where, not just in Thailand or China. I've seen a few bad at the Malaysian Open, and other tournaments. Martin Frost gave a good example. There's always going to be a bad line call so forget about and move on. Don't let it affect you.
My feeling is that the Sea Games is a farce...if I'm not mistaken, host nations have won at least three of the last sea games...vietnam, phillipines, and thailand. it's very suspicious... this is something that doesn't happen in the Olympics, where US, China and Russia usually dominate the top few spots consistently.
Hmm.. ..Point no. 3 seems to be somewhat contradicting point #1 though. If they hire "neutral", professional linesmen/women, umpires and service judges, what are the chances they will make a bad call more than once??....If they make bad calls more than once, would they be called "neutral" & "professional"??..What is the no. of limit, of bad calls, they are allowed??.. ..in other words, the players will call whatever they please??..If that happens, wait til the fans, watching the matches, really go berserk..
