the commonwealth games.... 5 days of competition....
what has happened??
the GOOD thing is... no terrorist attacks...
that, and the fact that australia is dominating everything~!!!
besides that.... we have had construction falling apart.... scoreboards falling down.... we have an alleged contaminated swimming pool which is making the swimmers ill... the smoggy pollution is so bad, u can barely see 100m in front of u.... yet... the marathon runners will have to suck it all in for over 2 hours over 42kms...
we have had a couple of pathetic moments of aussie athletes being sore losers.... a wrestler and a cyclist that gave the officials a finger gesture because they didnt like their judgements.... poor effort~
aussie sprinter was disqualified 4 hours after winning her 100m sprint.... considering it is a 11 second race.... and she false started by 7 thousandth of a second.... the electronic pads give the indication that she false started instantaneously.... yet.... she was allowed to run her 11 second race, do her 20 minute lap of honour, and 4 hours later, while she lines up for the medal ceremony, she is disqualified.... the comm games admin needs to take a look at themselves.....
there are no fans anywhere.... and the fans who do attend events such as the swimming, archery, and other events dont know when to shut up and be quiet.... we have had swimmers false start and complain that the indian crowd cant stay quiet during the start..... pathetic.....
on BBC today, they even said that new delhi and india were nowhere near ready to host the games.... the only reason this game hasnt been a total disaster is that people expected more disasters.... but for an international sporting event, it has already exceeded every aspect of being an unsuccessful event....
i hope the aussies keep the gold coming, and we can out number ENG + IND + NZL + CAN gold medals combined~
