Nice to see that the book has been thrown at the lot of them with a fairly significant degree of force.

Anyone who considers badminton a sport should be thrown out of a window......ugh I hate the Olympics.

How is badminton not a sport?

Technically it is......but badminton, table tennis, shooting, and equestrian and some others don't quite strike as being in the spirit of the so-called Olympic tradition.....I guess it's a matter of taste too.
