that's quite an infectious but enigmatic smile/grin taufik has (i honestly think his teeth are great. they complement his baby face eh?). on the second pic, did he actually pose for the cam?
i think he's wearing a fossil watch. lol. i like it a lot though. i think i'll get me one of those soon. :p

..hmm, the 2 people sitting behind Taufik are blurred...But on 2nd, 3rd and 4th observations, the person in blue might be Vita...But, boy, you're quite sure she is Vita, don't you?!:eek::cool:
now the guy in orange looks like rijal to me... hmmmmmm..
..hmm, so which one is it?? Sony or Rijal??..;)

Seldom see Zhang Ning look this way. She is always so cool and always my favorite WS player. Hope she will come back and win gold at the Olympics before retiring.

I just wonder what Taufik would react this time since the whole lot of the MDs except LWW/CTF lost so badly. Is he going to submit his immediate resignation again? I believe the other foreign coaches must be laughing with pants down.

a bit out of order :( no action shots because my camera can't handle the speed haha.. and it's started feeling weird to take pictures of other players, but i'll try to fight that.

#1 day 2 round 2 view from the player's seats. 1st court ctf/lww of msia vs howard and bob of usa, 2nd court yw/zjw of china vs japan wd akao and matsuda, 3rd court sony vs shoji sato.
#2 day 2 howard and eva of usa vs lyd/hjl.
#3 day 1 courts 4 and 5. japan md ikeda and sakamoto vs kkk/tbh, yu hirayama vs saina nehwal.
#4 day 1 court 4 close up from public seating in the stands.
#5 eriksen and lungaard-hansen vs taipei csh/cht. notice the scoring things, is it always like that? it's confusing as the perspective is different from different parts of the gym..
#6 day 1 courts 1,2, and 3. can't id the players, too small :)
#7 entrance to the practice courts, there are 8. i'll put pictures of those up later.

enjoy :)

guys 1 question...

i am going tonight to the QF and the finals on sunday... on my ticket it says no cameras allowed. How did you guys manage to take the camera in? Did you put it in a bag or your pocket? Didnt they say anything during the search? I really want to take my camera but dunno if it will get taken by security!

pls advise :)

z3048018
03-07-2008, 02:00 AM
it was the same during the HKO last year. the personnel there said that during the prelims, cameras were allowed, but not during the Finals - except for the press of course

03-07-2008, 02:02 AM

wow, that's a bit harsh, he did beat both sony and LCW after all, so regardless of whether we believe that LD 'gave' him the title in the final, he still played and beat some very good players to get to that final. i think he deserves more credit than everyone is giving here.

I totally agree with your point of view,, although the match was created ( may be not) ,Chen Jin worked so hard to beat good players especially LCW who he has lost aginst for several previous matches....anyway he deserves the victory.

I agree! It is too harsh to call him "cheated". It is a tough road for him to get here. He earned the victory. BTW, I must give credit to some BCers to call this before it happens. Great call, guys!

I thought I heard someone in the crowd shouting "Lin Dan, wo ai ni" during the AE finals?????? Gosh, no wonder he enjoys playing in NIA. Read this from the AE website :

Defending men's singles champion Lin Dan voted the National Indoor Arena his favourite stadium as he booked his place in his fifth consecutive final, having won the title three times.
Lin Dan said: “This arena is my favourite venue. It’s the best in Europe and possibly the best in the world. I feel very comfortable here and the crowd are very supportive.
Then he joked: “I’m not bored of winning here but bored with the prizemoney – I think it should be increased!” If he wins he will net $US 15,000 with the women’s champion receiving a similar amount for the first time this year.

"Lin Dan, wo ai ni" translates into "Lin Dan, I love you", which is not that unusual for the particular location, culture, venue, and etc. We hear them all the time in concerts everywhere ;)

"Jealous" instead of "Joyous" for screen name? (my apology for the joke), and my sincere thank for bringing up an interesting subject :p:D

Ha..ha..No problem at all and I am not jealous - am happy and joyous to hear positive remarks than negative ones like 'boos'. Perhaps that's why he insist on finishing the match so as not to let the spectators down.
