Who Should Be Blamed?

Xing Huina, a gold medal winner for women's 10,000 meters race in Athens Olympic Game, was disqualified for 5,000 meters race in the 10th National Game for violating the rule.

It is sale Inflatable Pirate Ship just one of scandals during this Game. Too many disappointing scandal happened, such as drug taking, fake fall, and sportsman protestation.

The 10th National Game is regarded as a rehearsal for 2008 Olympic Game. However, all these scandals heavily shock our hearts and lead us to think it over.

We may easily blame those rule-violating sportsmen for losing their moral spirit and sportsmanship. But is it just their fault?

With little shame, Xing Huina replied that she did so just for the gold medal when being asked why. We are disappointed to hear such an explanation, since we all know sportsmen should not win gold medals in any fake, dishonest, and shortcut way but through hard work, honest performance and fair judgment.

But have you considered what drives sportsmen to violate rules? Have you noticed what we are doing to them?

So we can see this: winning a gold medal means so much to a sportsman. A gold medallist is always followed by the great honor, big fame, and enormous fortune. On the contrary, those unlucky losers can only live a hard life unknown to public. Therefore, we begin to understand why all sportsmen seem to be so crazy for gold medals even at a very high risk.

Take Liu Xiang as an example. He became famous overnight after he won a gold medal in 2004 Olympic Game.

Now, he custom Bouncy Castles has become the focus on TV, newspaper and other medias, even his story has been written in the textbook. Nobody would realize his or even know him if he had not luckily won the gold medal in the Olympic Games.

In my opinion, we should first adjust our attitude towards sportsmen. If we can equally admire every brave sportsman who conquers himself, if we can honor whoever has true sports spirit, if we can judge a sportsman from his competition result as well as his performance, then we will see less and less rule-violating sportsmen in the sports game.
