Mikhail Liebenstein Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Come on thats a wind up. That wasn't on the Beeb, was it. I have seen this comment made before on the BBC. And yes It is pretty sick. Yes, the athletes all deserve respect, but to make a deliberate virtue of fit young men being injured is what I have an issue with. It's like saying here are some para Olympic athletes we made earlier. The BBC is every bit as sick as the Russian media and Government before the 1980 Olympics when the denied that there were any disabled people in Russia and so couldn't hold the Para Olympics.

Thanks for confirming that - after I made the post I suddenly thought I must have misunderstood the clip. But obviously not. Looks like our number 2 spot in the para olympics is assured and at the rate casualties are mounting we could actually sweep the medals board in 2012. Unless of course the Chinese start deliberately maiming atheletes in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lost his job in LA and had to go back into the US Army to for the financier criminals to keep paying his mortgage. He's nearly 40 now.

Neil B Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 This must be the sickest post ever. Why would being an amputee suddenly give you the ability to excell in a sport? I hope you get Trolled for posting this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness to the OP, it wasn't meant like that I'm sure. It's about the horror the UK has become and the attitude of it's government and government run media.
