It is tough job being married, you know...hehehe!!!

It's too late.

I couldn't understand how some people could wish/plan to enter the Olympics if they haven't started preparing for it years in advance.

And talking about marriage...... most Olympians postpone their weddings to after the Olympics.

Giving support to HH is one thing, but giving support to his other teammates has to be considered as well. Only a maximum of 2 Mens Singles from Malaysia could be going to Beijing OG 2008, since Malaysia is unlikely to have 4 MS players in the top 4 in the world ranking, otherwise 3 would be going.

Since LCW has taken up one of the 2 berths, there is only ONE BERTH left for the following players, namely WCH, HH, LTS, RH, YKB, and SA (named here according to their current world rankings).

WCH should be getting more support than HH... because WCH has been producing better results. It is not that we do not want to support HH, but we want to give support the better candidates. Looking at the way things are going, perhaps LTS could even overtake HH in the next few months.

We could see that WCH was planning to enter the OG 2008, participating in it as his last big event. We could see that he started planning for it since the last OG.

And, if WCH was not injured from the last Thomas Cup event, he would be way in front of HH, thus giving no hope/chance to HH for the OG 2008.

My quote of "I couldn't understand how some people could wish/plan to enter the Olympics if they haven't started preparing for it years in advance" was based on the statements from HH's coach, Misbun, saying that HH didn't even attend many his training sessions.

Even if HH is intending to attend all the training sessions from today onwards, I believe that "It's too late".

My quote "most Olympians postpone their weddings to after the Olympics" is a general comment for most Olympians (Badminton or not). We are saying that most Olympians concentrate so hard to train well that they are willing to postpone their weddings. The general comment cannot be taken as they must postpone their weddings in order to show the world that they have made sacrifices.

At Beijing, we are more concerned with how one can perform, not what sacrifices one has made.

Hafiz is just a joke, and a major let-down. Less hopes put on him, the less heartache will be for fans.

**koo_fan** · 01-24-2008, 01:55 AM

another failure in korea open.what else can i say??

wondered if he would ever be the same player as misbun has created years ago.he wont be able to stay to his own character in 2003.if he refuses to start all over again.from zero.thast the only way.i cant see any other solution.

**alfa-2** · 01-24-2008, 07:21 AM

give him a break guys, he is so fat + lazy + heavy + he is already married.

**d65up2** · 01-26-2008, 04:57 AM

Come on Hafiz you can make it...I like Hafiz more than other MAS players...Hafiz is cool man really nice guy shame not to have him in Olympics

suprised me.do u really think so?

i with alfa.(but not in sarcastic tone).give him a break.just closed this thread n let he think for his career.
no one can help him except hafiz hashim.

**robin7** · 01-26-2008, 05:40 AM

Hafiz has been given many years to prove himself since winning AE2003. Getting married before OG08 is a wrong move since he is still young.

Wong Choong Hann is a much better candidate despite his age.

Let the world ranking speak for itself.

Please bear in mind, we are selecting a better player NOT better person for Olympics.

LOL, LOL, little sis, you were the one who started this thread.

And I agree with Robin, WCH always fought hard for the country. Either WCH or LTS, would be better choice. It just depends whose ranking is higher come May 2008

mr habis hasbeen, good name!

... but he needs to show up for training first
