babbleismysuperpower:xthegirlwithkaleidoscopeyesx:I hate him with every fibre of my being. Indian athletes do not have the privilege of high tech equipment and they are not given funding or support the way athletes in the west do (unless they’re cricketers). Sakshi Malik is the daughter of a bus conductor and had to literally fight her way to the top because she faced opposition from people in her village for taking up sports because she was a girl. She has a 9 to 5 job to support herself when most athletes dedicate their lives to their sport. PV Sindhu had to travel 56 kilometres every day to practice her badminton. And for the first time in my life i saw this country care about something that wasn’t cricket, it was so heartwarming to see everyone cheer on these two girls and be proud of them for their bronze and silver medals. And Piers Morgan’s response to someone sharing India’s celebrations with him is that it is ‘embarrassing’? How can someone be so vile.since when are olympic medals - any olympic medals - considered losing? THEY’RE OLYMPIC MEDALS. i’d like to see piers morgan bust his ass like these ladies did, and see how much of a loser he feels like after GETTING TO COMPETE IN THE OLYMPICS.jesus. what a condescending dick.very exciting for india, tho. go india. :D -- source link
