Goals have been clearly set for some time so those who qualify to the standards we’ve set will know they’re capable of returning from Athens having achieved something – they’re not simply going to the Olympic Games as excess baggage.
This is a quote from a very Henryk Lakomy, Sports science & fitness director at British Swimming.
So they feel that Mark Foster is excess baggage ! :mad:
He could win a medal, but i guess we will never know and that is one less medal for Britain. Ah well, there is always the breaststroke. Which seems to be the only stroke that UK swimmers can do well !:mad:
Heck, let's make the Olympics the feel-good-event-of-the-year and take everyone. We can call it No Swimmer Left Behind.
I've never seen or heard so much bellyaching about fairness. Maybe everyone should get a gold medal so no one's feeling are hurt.
Maybe for next year's Super Bowl we should allow the worst team to participate so they can get their jitters out in the event they ever show enough skill to actually get to the big game.
