RIDICULOUS LOGIC
by Harry George on Jul 21, 2012 01:38 AM

What great comments by guys who will not be able to jump 3 feet even if they lit a fire under their seats. You mean only the top 3 athletes in the world, who are sure to get a medal should participate in the Olympics? Then why do they have the qualifying mark? if someone can qualify and participate, it is a great achievement. Both for the individual and the country. We should all be proud of her. My friends, accordingto you only India, Australia, England, Sri-lanka and Pakistan should be in the cricket world cup. Also soccer WC should be Brazil, Germany, Spain, Portugal and Italy. In chess Vishwanathan Anand should compete alone as no one else has achance against him. Tennis only the top 2 seeds compete in the final on the 1st day itself and finish off the championship. Or at least the top 4 compete in a semifinal and then the final. The rest can just play against each other to decide who will play the champion to qualify for the next year. this is not Indian democracy where even the Presidential elections are a farce- a conspiracy of the gangs.

Funds for Olympics

What's the point? Did she jump anywhere close to the last Olympic's bronze medal winner? I bet she did not.
She will probably be relegated in the first round itself. So, if people are intelligent they will not donate any money for someone who will lose anyway.
She is going there to have a fun time, and as such should use her own hard earned money!!!

Agree with Critic... she wont even qualify for the finals as in 2008 olympics it took 1.93m to get to the finals. This year it would be at least 1.95m which is above her best. So why bother going to the games, she wants to party in London with her coach..

She knows that she stands no chance. Her coach is her father!!! So they want people to donate money for them to have a wonderful vacation at the expense of others.

You are very cynical and negative . The spirit of the Olympics is competeing, not winning a medal , although that would be nice .

He will definitely teach you a thing or two about making money, or rather minting it, sitting idle along with a dozen lazy persons

What does Kalmadi Say?
by Word Smith on Jul 19, 2012 03:26 PM

This Kalmadi guy is sponsored for the tour to London but not the coach of Sahana? What a shame. If this Kalmadi had some sense, he would pay her the required money.

Every one can donate some money and it will become sufficient.

It should be directly sent to her in place of some agency.

Equipment required?
by Ram on Jul 19, 2012 01:04 PM  | Hide replies

Can someone clarify on what equipment is required for a high jumper? I can understand the high jump bar, cushions and gym - which I guess they are already provided in the SAI complexes where she is getting trained. Beyond this, any other equipment?

You forgot the bouncing, jumping shoes. She can't afford to buy them!
