Got a feeling China/LCW is going to sweep the rest, but I'm looking forward to the Lin Dan/LCW matchup which HAS to happen like I'm looking forward to the OSL finals - aka like a little child! With regards to the low amount of doping going on: There isn't really a lot of money involved in Badminton. Furthermore actual strength is such a little part of badminton compared to technique which is also what makes it such a great sport. This is probably the last Olympic for Super Dan, and a Super Dan / LCW finals would be the most epic finals of all time. I would be jizzing everywhere during that | ||

You know how you buy birdies in those tubes? we call it shuttle racks over here at my club and you can use it as those clappers that the asians always have at badminton events. They are really loud if you hit together correctly  | ||

Thanks man, i usually miss these as it´s not really getting televised in Germany. Was even planing on driving too London because i have a friend there i could stay with, but it just seems impossible to get tickets...

Well, not really, Taufik won 04 and China hasn´t won a men´s double gold in like 20 years or something. | ||

You can click on the Offical Link for the players. Sure, i will. But it´s been awhile since i followed the scene closely. Got an injury in 09 and it took almost 2 years before i could finally start training again...never got as good again as i used to be...guess age and work didn´t help either. | ||
