    I agreeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!

    Absolutely agree, and also keep [SIZE=-1]Jason Kurfurst as Fitness Coach for INA team, especially for Badminton Team, this guy already do something GREAT to INA player, see Maria is always win 3 games play in a tie, but she still can control the game and win, hopefully the mens Double and Mix Doubles can proov that this guy [/SIZE][SIZE=-1]Jason Kurfurst is important for INA Badminton team,

    see his quote [/SIZE]"I can make them faster, stronger, less (prone to) injury and powerful ... to have a better performance later in the Olympics," Jason Kurfurst was quoted as saying in Friday's The Jakarta Post newspaper.

    :)

    The Danes are still out of luck. XXF will win I think since she is younger & has not won an OG besides everything else. LYB will sure make her an Olympic champ because ZN already was.

    Kwun, when you say XXF will cook soup, do you mean she will retire........sorry for being dumb!

    Gill clark says she hope XXF win as she will be playing at next olympic so can be ambassador.

    I Have often questioned XXF desire to play and play like ZN. She seems to laid back and have other interests....not only LD, actually I think LD loves to play, sometimes I think XXF does not.

    8-6 to ZN come on ZN show us what you are made of!!!!!

    XXF can be so talented and anticpate well, but she justs looks ugly with her footwork.
