    Maybe she hasn't graduated yet:D...also, need to check the paper of the Singapore doc and Allan's doc partner...these days, you can't trust doc certifications no more..maybe Allan doc is highly qualified and the Sing doc is so-so, or the other way,;) LOL

    I have a great idea that will satisfy the BC mob once and for all.

    All countries carry a team doctor. BWF has an official doctor. So why not BC?

    We send a doctor to all SS tournaments and every time a suspicious walkover occurs, the BC doc get his shot at examining the player.

    Once our doc makes his examination, his ruling becomes official. This means if it is legit, nobody on BC can whine. If the injury is deemed to be fake, it's open season on the offending player and the mob can pile on :p

    I volunteer Cheung, whose travel expenses will be borne by kwun :D

    (written with tongue firmly planted in cheek) ;) :)

    jokingly about, if a player report to a doctor that he/she is not well and cant carry on. are you seriously think the doctor will say no and force the player to play on? and let the insurance company to pick up the tap if indeed that lead to injuries or worse?

    Here's a new avenue of income for Lin Dan: advertise for Imodium. Just one dose and you're good for a long trek to the stadium, address 7,400 pissed-off spectators, stand on the podium with a visibly embarassed colleague, toss some geegaws into same riled-up crowd, and go to the airport for your next magic show. And here's some more good news for LYB: Imodium also softens up the spine some more.

    If Lin Dan played and lost to badly to Chen Jin, maybe that could be evidence of match fixing. Anyway, Lin Dan is playing 2 consecutive tough matches(QF and SF) but Chen Jin also playing tough matches throughout the week. If Lin Dan was facing a different players, he might still play even if he knows he is not at his best. What people feel is that since he is facing CJ, he is more likely to give up.

    Anyway, all these are just ifs.

    No wonder they booed with frustration

    .
    Cannot blame the so many Badminton fans who bought tickets to watch Lin Dan perform; but only to find that he has gastroenteritis. No wonder they booed with frustration.

    It shows that our Badminton Open SS tournaments are now valued as entertainment, just like any other shows with performers to entertain us.

    Let's hope that Lin Dan will be OK on Wednesday, 22-June-2011, at Round 1 of the Indonesia Open SS Premier. Otherwise, Indonesian fans might be disappointed to find him not performing again.

    True, BWF is rather weak and not doing much to please spectators at tournaments. :eek::eek::eek:

    (1) It appears that BWF is more interested in pleasing National Associations more than to please our Badminton spectators.

    (2) National Associations are geared to place their priority to 'National Interest' first and therefore also not so interested to please our Badminton spectators.

    From (1) and (2), we shall find that Badminton spectators (and also independent Badminton players) won't be able to get much out of BWF.

    The funny thing about the 2011 Singapore Open SS was that BWF was rather proud to organise to bring us live streaming of the Finals Day events, especially the Mens Singles event... but it ended up with a 'no show'. :):):)
