when there is nothing to fight for, people usually come up with other useless issues like obesity or maybe even favorite badminton brand.

With the badminton geeks on here, I'd venture a guess at a few...

**wilfredlgf** · 11-19-2007, 07:35 AM

It was a line from Magneto to Professor X in the first X-Men movie...

How come the trophies are at different sizes? It appears to me as WS champion and runner-up instead of WD.

Those trophies are considered ok size... you have not seen bigger ones given in tourneys in Japan yet. Usually the trophies are bigger and comes together with a certificate as well.
