CWG will be better than Beijing Olympics: Kalmadi

As much as people may lol.

You know that old saying

The Commonwealth Games haven’t created this kind of a stir in Canada since Victor Davis kicked a chair in front of the Queen.

Say what you want about all the screw-ups and the mess in the athletes village at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, but the controversies have put this event on the map.

Now, every day when Commonwealth Games Canada holds a conference call update, a large crew of reporters from newspapers, radio and television climb aboard to hear the latest. Forget medal count. Bed count is the hot statistic of the moment.

The Games weren’t on the radar of most news outlets before all the calamities — only about 25 Canadians outside the CBC are accredited to cover it in Delhi. But right now, it’s like the week before an Olympics, with everyone wanting a piece of the story.

Mention to someone that you’re headed to the Delhi Commonwealth Games three weeks ago and they were scratching their head. Now, you’ve got all kinds of talking points heading towards Sunday’s opening ceremonies.

Snakes? As the Aussie chef de mission said, no worries, mate. What do you remember about the 2006 Melbourne Games? Or 2002 in Manchester?


“I hope that the attention that’s been focused on the Games as a consequence of some of the issues that surround it will continue as we begin to celebrate what I think is going to be some pretty significant accomplishments by our athletes,” said Dr. Andrew Pipe, president of Commonwealth Games Canada.

The Commonwealth Games once occupied a bigger place on the sporting landscape, before the Olympics began alternating every two years and the calendar became crowded with more frequent world championships and other events.

The 1978 Edmonton Games were a big deal, starring the likes of swimmer Graham Smith, gymnast Elfi Schlegel and pentathlete Diane Jones-Konihowski. At the ’82 Games in Brisbane, Australia, swimming ace Alex Baumann set a world record and Davis made headlines for kicking a chair on the pool deck in front of Her Majesty after a relay disqualification.


There’s no question the Delhi Games have a bigger stage than ever now, albeit by dubious circumstances. Organizers had better hope that stage doesn’t collapse

Again its just a different perspective , there is a good side to(almost) everything.

Can I just ask you a very quick question?

Do you have such a similar identity in history? No, you don't.

You ask a question and answer it yourself.

If you have such ignorant preconceived notions then,why seek our opinion in the first place?

We may not have written history of 4200 years .What we have is of 3500 years.


ontopic


We can't compare this with Olympic games,unless one posses a desire to be a laughing stock.

We should see how its compares with previous Commonwealth games.

Impressed by the mental level of these people and the guys honoring them with medals.

I had initially thought this place was for some real intellectual debates and of course some light funnny exchanges.

Sir Google Translation really isn't the best choice. If you don't mind I'll tranlate the phrases properly and explain them too.

手淫强身 means that "masturbation makes one stronger". "yy强国" means that "fanboyish wet dreams makes a country stronger". The phrase is used often on Chinese forums to attack "YY" experts who make ridiculous claims about Chinese military hardware (like J-10 shooting down F-22 and such...).

》 in china, we call this: 手淫强身,yy强国。

yy is short for "Yi-Ying" meaning Mind/mental masturbation

the whole sentence is "(hand) masturbation makes strong body, YY makes strong country"
