[Nicxtreme]

Congrats to tennis team at least getting a medal in tennis team.

[Gendut]

Hooray?

 

How come it just doesn't feel right?

 

Why does the silver look dull?

 

Why does the glory feels fake?

[Alan9711]

Is because all are import from China including the coach.

If singapore play against china, it's more like china vs china to me frankly.

[Gendut]

So is it safe to say that if you're born and grew up in Singapore you will never win a gold medal?

 

What is wrong with this place?

[Alan9711]

Yes in a way becos everyone going for paper qualification

using a FT to buy a medal.... is it still considered singaporean glory ?

U're right!!. End of the day still blue IC. Born China!!

I agree. It makes me wonder what are some of these singaporeans thinking..eg why we respect the french team when they won the world cup 98 when not all are french?

 

So we win, you dun feel the glory. When we lose, you say whats the point of paying for their training? hello?

[Avatarlow]

What there to celebrate ? Tax payer is $1.5 mil or $750,000 poorer. Corect me if I'm wrong!!!

Being a S'porean Chinese

Had anyone here visited Beijing before

Do u guys feel proud when u landed your feet on the Great Wall or the Forbidden City?

 

What's wrong with FT?

Every Chinese here started as immigrant too

Is it too late for them now?

 

Why some feel so unbalance or sour grape here?

[Shorty]

y i agree.all chinese here hv their origins from china.

n like someone said earlier...when they win...say they not true sporean.when they lose...say waste our money.give them a break.if not for them toiling sweat n blood everyday...who else to represent our country??...all of us r jus too selfish wif our paper chase...no one wants to sacrifice n take de sports path.how many of us r brave enuf to put aside our paper chase for dat "un-guaranteed" sports glory?...

 

i'm jus proud enuf dat de spore flag will b hoisted come de medal presentation.
