[quote=GAZ07 ,15396]Firstly, 5-time Gold medalist Matthew Pincent would not write an article about Chinese gymnasts out of Jealousy.Secondly, Britain does not "train" hooligans. That's just stupid.Thirdly, this post is NOT, I repeat for Pinetree and Songbird, !NOT! an attack on China. I (and matthew pincent) was using the gymnasts as an example of how we have become obsessed with being successful at the Olympics, and sport in general. If you read correctly, i mention it's a WORLDWIDE problem. Another example is the constant drug abuse in the UK and US and other countries. The points i was hoping to raise:-Do you think it's right to push increasingly younger children to the limit or possibly further? and what about their future health?Are we taking Olympics too seriously, or maybe we are being fiercely competitive just as the Romans themselves were?**Mature posts only please**[/quote]
