It is raining medals for USA and their athletes are leaving no stones unturned to grab even the slightest bit of opportunities. Same can be said for each and every players playing for their respective nations. Olympics is the greatest sporting event in the world and players consider themselves fortunate if they get qualified to play for their country.
In all of my previous articles time and again I have been emphasizing upon the true and real meaning of Olympics. Olympics is not about winning medal, but it’s about the story of people participating in it. The versatility and the common ground for cultures from all over the world to meet and respect each other and share mutual admiration. It is about the stories of underdogs who have faced against all the odd situations and came up with flying colors in their life.
Although India still hasn’t scored its first medal in Olympics but that doesn’t stop me from watching it. Usually I switch off my TV when it is confirmed that India won’t get one tonight. But when the news of winners flashes up the next morning in the newspapers, one thing that always strikes my mind is that Why do they pose like that ? Why do they bite their medals ? Is it something related with science or is it just an old custom followed since decades or centuries.
