    Forget about TH winning WC10, if TH doesn't die off in 3rd set against LD or LCW, that alone is a feat. Really, TH is no longer TH in WC05.
    3 golds to CHN and if CHN win XD, make that 4 and I won't bet against that either. MD, no clear fav, open warfare for everyone, who hits top form has the golden chance on game day.

    Well OTB, I didn't say TH will win. I am just tagging along with kuwichert :). You know, I have already dived deep enough to reveal the ''reality''(or at least that's what LYB believed is) and took the trouble to translate to him. But if he chose not to belive it, it's his choice. Can do nothing about it.

    Let's go OTB, place more money on LD. You can earn a bucket load out of this tournament. :D:D;)

    Anyway, the Thing will be there according to one of the article from China Press.

    Of course you did not say TH will win...to do so would be brave or foolish, as good as TH was in the past, TH has not won a SS lately, so WC10, with such a tough draw, TH chance is slim...but in life nothing is quaranteed other than death and you will pay tax, who knows who will win? Maybe LCW and LD and CJ all got KO early and TH goes to play old man Gade where TH may have 50-50 chance of winning.
    Now, if we are betting on one single player in WC10, who would you really pick?...to pick with my heart, I say LCW...to pick with my brain and wallet, I pick LD. There you go...but nothing is certain, like they say until the fat lady sings......:D

    The CHN girls have a better chance of winning WS than any other team...I say WX and WSX will meet in the SF, and the winner will takes the gold, my prediction WX.

    That is fair and totally acceptable as fans are free to be partisan to his/her country of residence or in my case, my country of origin or for whatever reason, it is a free world of choice. As long as LD continues to play the way he plays, that is difficult to beat and if what Iceling said The Thing would be in WC10, that adds another dimension to LD game and you can see the significance LYB and LD rate the importance of WC gold medal than some SS to bring the Thing to Paris. Unlike someone said LD is out of training, I can picture LD training hard aiming for this WC, just like LD did in OLY08. It would not be the LD in EAG, unfortunately.

    - Make that: TH has not won a SS ever..the only 4 Heavenly Badminton King who is still SS-title-less..
    - Make that also : TH's chances are slim and none..

    Based on records, LD is the favourite. So who do you support? Are you standing with us (kuwichert & gang) or the opposite side?

    Hahaha!!:D I thought BC forum is a site where baddy fans can communicate and share a common interest in badminton, hopefully discuss in a civil and respectful way. There is no sides to pick. I was born in Malaysia, now living in Canada, of course I support my fellow country men and women. LCW has a better chance to win than say a CJ, TH or PG and every other MS player, in fact, LCW has a better chance to get gold for MAS than any other player in the MAS team, doubles included. Everyone that is except LD. If my prediction happens to be on your side, that is sheer coincidence, so I predict LD wins his 4th gold and CHN will take at least 3 golds, so which side am I on? I couldn't care less;)

    Yep - completely agree with you, we can stop the useless discussion of 'who's the favourite', we all know him, and we also all know the limited chances of his opponents, there's nothing to teach us:cool:. We have to come to the point: Where is simply a mission we have to stand for! :eek:
    That's it, and that's simply in favour of badminton as sports :cool:- there is nothing to discuss, just let's go for the goal :rolleyes: and everybody who loves the thrill of exiting badminton matches should join that mission, and it doesn't matter whether he or she is a fan of LD or not:D

    if there is a match of 2 players and a remis is not possible - there is always one to pick:eek:
    we all here in the forum share the passion of badminton - no need to mention - so our main goal is to get the best players to the tournaments and get the thrills we love so much as often as possible:cool: - so there are lotta reasons to start that mission -
    sometimes the choice of the private hero doesn't match with the choice for the matter - buddy, that's life!:D - nothing new
    anyway, since you wanna see LCW on top at the end, I consider that as you gonna join us cheering all oponents of LD - starting right from the beginning with cheering Ali Shahhosseini (and icnluding BCL if needed:eek:)- yep - we have to cheer the underdogs anyway LOL:D
    So, welcome to the team :rolleyes:

    lets have a look of the draws to see if really everybody has a chance, shall we.

    MS - World ranking of 122 from Nigeria
    WS - World ranking of 91 from Mauritius
    MD - Unranked from France, 94 from South Africa
    WD - World ranking of 112 fro Finland
    XD - Unranked from France, 109 from South Africa.

    well, they are there for the experince and might become better players after that. but ZERO chance of getting the gold medals. as about 90% of them in the draw, just to made up the number with NO chance for winning. how's that for a reality check?

    the 5 golds will go to the top 4 seeds, may be 1 or 2 form the top 8 and definitely none outside the top 8. that's my predictions.

    my friend, chances of the world top 5 and predictions of players are 2 different things

    who in the world would think of kenichi tago in the all england final 2010?

    compare tago and the top 5 on chances of winning a medal, he has the slimmest chance

    compare tago and the top 5 on predictions to the final, i think you know the answer

    Uncle OTB, you are so indecisive:). We all know who is the overwhelming favourite. We only want your support (saw in your previous post that your heart is with Chong Wei). Could you for once go with your emotions and support him or other players. Please note that there are no intentions to create sides.

    Good response to Uncle OTB.
    But hitherto, his pick is LD.
