Normal to lose to China

Alright, so throughout the years I've been hearing people saying that "oh our country table tennis team is full of chinese, and we should get rid of them", things like that.

For me, my mindset always was "well i dont care, as long as they deliver and make us proud, thats what it matters, isnt it".

But now, i am seriously disgusted by the female table tennis team, okay, granted, they won a silver medal for us, credits to them, its no easy feat despite many taking it for granted.

I dont really fault them for taking it easy to lose to china since well, afterall, thats their root. but seriously, wheres the mindset of a sports person?

You dont get satisfied at just being second, at least not to the point of smiling right after you lost a final. That is so wrong, to them, silver is like getting a gold medal already, and whats wrong about it? Everything.

I dont know if they have failed us as Singaporeans, but well, as sportswomen, they really fail badly, this is ridiculous.
