That's alright then, I nearly considered removing you from the list that you do not appear onanyone , sorry for an offence
And to carry on with the theme... Britain has won four gold medals on the first day of action of the Paralympics. Gold Medals aren't usually given out to just any sportsmen/women who 'show a tiny amount of potential'. I think we have something to be rightly proud of at this moment in time. We're not, as you suggest, having 'very few sports successes' of late, we're having LOTS of success and I cannot recall many people getting 'carried away'. I think we are actually very muted in our sporting celebrations in this country compared to other countries. I would suggest that we should celebrate these achievements even more.Did you actually watch the Olympics? We did VERY well. It was a surprise granted but at least we 'seem' to be going in the right direction. Lewis Hamilton isn't exactly Slow! Fair enough, he didn't win the championship last year but he's still young and has potential.That's the problem though with this country - because we have very few sports successes, we always get carried away as soon as someone shows even a tiny amount of potential.
As for Khan, I have to agree with you, he was/is over hyped in my opinion but then the Promoter has a LOT to do with that. The Brits have a long history of following boxing and we are desperate for a new world champion. Its understandable to a certain degree that some of us get a bit over confident of our fighters.
Take rugby league for example - being from St. Helens, I am of course a big fan - we regularly beat Australia and New Zealand and can hold our own against anyone.
That's because you have a team full of cheats.
Quote from a text message I received.... "Amir Kahn entered the ring as a sporting hero, and left the ring as just another f***ing pakistani..... to make the likes of Kahn into sporting gods.
