Hey thanks. So, no SS titles for KKK/TBH in 08' but I guess they are now on the up again after bagging the SS Masters. I am looking forward to 09' ... indeed.
good words by you chinese say, if don't want to win don't win if you want to win, win the biggest, SS Masters at least they get the last laugh I am looking forward to 09' too....
There is also a malay saying 'Jangan Menang Sorak Kampung Tergadai' which literally means hollow victory.
hollow victory? mind you their pocket is not hollow, man... Kota Kinabalu fans pocket getting hollow fork-out RM 100 plus for the tickets they are not complaining, why you? aiya, coz your income tax monies koyak pulak.....
i am sure they would trade that prize for a cashless WC or an OG gold medal, right??? Tell me why players try so damn hard to win a cashless OG or WC medal? So r u saying it would be better if they just enter money opens and SS series, and not waste time and sweat to train for WC and OG?
what to do, they seems to strike the big monies this time... are you out of your mind btw?? WC or OG cashless? the money behind damn huge mind you you know who's money? ours money, hahahaha
just relax... u are welcome... do u want to include ss master title as a ss title???...if so...they have 6...just like mk/hs...
Oh I wouldn't say OG is cashless although on the surface there is no official prize money. In fact if a Malaysian wins a OG gold, he/she will stand to win much more than any SS title. The government, the well-wishers, the sponsors and commercial houses will be there to reward them aplenty! It is not a secret that even members of past Thomas Cup victories were richly rewarded with cash, real estate, etc.
i'm well aware of those side bonuses and compensation. I am talking about the tournament prize only since my counterparts keep boasting about their 40k USD prize (shared) as accomplishment
Errr ... bro, do you need a calculator?? KKK/TBH won zero SS titles this year except for the SS Masters. If you are talking prize money, then as pro sportsmen you think their pockets are not hollow??
give me a calculator for what? i think they need it more as they won huge some of money in KK... hollow victory in the sense that SS Masters aint big tournament as claimed by you, fine... but they still get the last laught anyway...
