Which silly_reporter asked Bindra about feeling_shamed ?

Did Kapil or Border win world cup twice ? Did Maradona win world cup twice ?

Still,those will remain as legends.So,will Bindra's name be written in golden letters as the first individual olympic gold medalist of India..


What a silly_headline...

Pele,Bradman and Dhyanchand cannot be compared with these modern players because those days certain countries had monopoly over certain sports.There was no tough global competition like today.

Today players win gold over bronze in difference of fraction of a point.

No shooter in Olympic history has ever win the gold in two consecutive olympics till date. so no big deal if he did not win but he is still young can try in next.

Sports bodies are useless.Bindra's success is due to the investment made by his parents.

it's extremely difficult already to finish in the top 8 and anything can happen on that given day considering the close competition, even zhu qinan the favorite to win the event could not qualify. ..and Bindra has given a Gold! in this event last oly, it's truly a commendable feat to hold your nerve till the last shot.

Last olympic Zhu_Qinan won silver.This time_Zhu also did not qualify along with Bindra in top 8.Still no_chinese is throwing_chappal1 at him.

Bindra and Zhu_were replaced by fellow countrymen Narang and Wang_Tao.Thats ok.Wang_also ended 4th in the final.

Why do we expect so much from the same athelete again and again ?

true man... may be he was not prepared fully for gold..or he took the competition lightly... someone else was preparing extremely hard in the world and he was not... the bus is missed this time... hope he has learned something from this experience and will get GOLD next time... hope for the best

shameless excuse

100 crore Indians just can't have 10 gold medals and offering excuse of best(worst) performance in lieu of medals is the most tragic episode creating dramatic humour.

It is very easy to point fingers at others but difficult put own self in the same situation as the sports persons are going through. In India Politics and business are two good careers which give good money unlike sports.
