Is there any pourpose and honor in winning a gold medal if you have to cheat to get it?

Question

I think there is something fishy going on with the China Olympians. Lets face it if weren't for judged events like gymnastics and diving, both judged events that China has dominated, no one would even know that there was a Chinese team. Other then those 2 events they have won most of their medals in sports like shooting and badminton. I didn't even know there was these events and who really cares about them. Also, did anyone see the women's pair beach volley ball final, where the girl obviously faked a injury to buy a 5 minute medical time out just as the US was ready to finish them off.

So my question is, Is China cheating anyway they can and if so what's the point of winning if you have to cheat to do it?

Answer 1

O dear - here we go again.

Do you want some mouldy cheese with your sour grapes?

Answer 2

Avg S,please,a little decorum if you don't mind.I can't believe your outburst.

Edit....YOU DUMBSH*T YANKS,WHY DON'T YOU STOP WHINING AND START WINNING.Didn't anyone tell you that you have to win medals to wear them?

Answer 3

sigh... not again !?!?!

can so few credit the chinese for being able to win through effort rather than cheating?

3 words only

GET   OVER    IT

Answer 4

I think there' something fishy going on too.  If you watch the gymnastics, it's hard to believe some of those stunts were better than Nastia.  

Also, I'm tired of people posting stuff like "this is what cheating is" and adding Americans who couldn't compete due to steroids.  There's a difference between a single person cheating (as if we knew) and an entire country lying to the world.

From my expericne in China, the people won't see it as wrong if the government tells them it's not.  It drove me insane being there since no one was capable of thinking outside the box...ever.

Answer 5

Becareful what you say, the Chinese Government may be watching.  You don't want to end up in a labor camp, do you?

Answer 6

To answer your question no there is no purpose/honor in winning a gold medal when you cheat

But to accuse the chinese of cheating is a big no no.  Sure they have many golds in those sports of diving and gymnastics but I am sure that they have earned it.  I have been glued to my sofa seat since the start of these olympics games (and my eyes prove it!) and I think that the chinese were amazing and good enough to win these golds.  So please do us all a favor and stop making such petty accusations that we have settled since a few days ago that the chinese did not cheat.  Sure the judging of the uneven bars was weird and cheap but it's not the chinese fault it's the judges.

Answer 7

Chinese always doing good in gymnastic and diving, not from this year. They earned a lot of golds in many Olympics before this one. And they earned golds in many world championships for years. So they bribed the judges all these years?

How can you explain China earned 8 Golds in weightlifting? You cannot fake it!!!!

Stop blaming other when you are not number 1 anymore, show some sportsmanship.

Answer 8

So you're saying Michael Phelps cheated in swimming, Usain Bolts cheated in track? Come on! Every country has a sport they excels in and weak in. Stop being a sour grape...

Answer 9

Ha ha ha ha ha get over it you crybaby losers.As if no Yankees cheat.Yankees are a one man team.1 man out of 300 million haha.
