It really pisses me off to see the complaints/assumptions made about this girl. Its a shame that we live in a society where everyone is quick to diminish someone else's success aka "be haters". Ex. Boston Bruins. They won the Stanley Cup last year but everyone was quick to say that " the Bruins didn't win it, Vancouver just lost it"....Gimme a break. Ex2. Brian Rast BASHING Hellmuth after going out in 6th at the One Drop. He said that Hellmuth "cant hang anymore" and that there are a lot of guys better than him today.....meanwhile Phil was busy making $1M more than Rast.

Ummm because China is known for doping, cheating, counterfeiting, copyright infringement, currency manipulation, spamming and just about any other underhanded thing they can do to get the upperhand.

The attempt to throw the two matches in the women's doubles had it roots in a surprise result earlier in the day when the Chinese second seeds, Tian Qing and Zhao Yunlei, were beaten by a Danish pair. The result meant that Yang and Xiaoli had to lose to avoid meeting their compatriots before a potential showdown in the final.

lmfao good to see the US propaganda machine is working just fine.

she's been tested and confirmed clean by the BOC/IOC but of course this has hardly been reported in the US media because, well, y'know... :rolleyes:

american michael phelps breaks 6 world records and wins 8 gold medals in 2008 - "GREATEST SWIMMER OF ALL TIME"

chinese ye shiwen breaks a world record and wins a gold - "MUST BE DOPING LOL"

Yeah when Americans completely dominate in certain areas (Phelps) they're heroes, goat Olympians etc. Non-American dominates then they're doping for sure...

And lol at

China 'known' for doping? Does the acronym BALCO mean nothing to you?

Edit - Yeah what Dorkus said. Cheers for editing and making me look like I'm just copying you :p

The OP was commenting on people making the assumption that she was doping. I was giving a reason why that might jump to mind in China's case - my reply did not comment on the merits of her particular case.
